Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search public job listings from employers' own career sites, list a company's open roles, and check whether a posting is still open.

What it does
A remote, read-only MCP server that searches open roles Applystead publishes from employers' applicant tracking systems such as Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workday. Tools include search_jobs (filter by query, remote country, company, internship or new-grad kind, pay listed, posting age, and limit), get_company_jobs (a company's details plus its ten newest jobs), and check_job_posting (whether a given posting URL is open, closed, unknown or unsupported). All tools are read-only and idempotent, and results link to the job page.
When to use it
Useful when someone wants an assistant to find current job openings, filter them by remote country, company, internship or new-grad status, or pay visibility, or verify whether a specific posting is still live. It suits job-search and recruiting research rather than anything that changes data.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint at No install, API key, sign-in or OAuth is needed; the data is public. The client must support remote Streamable HTTP MCP servers, and network access to the endpoint is required.
Before you install
Read-only and idempotent, with no credentials requested. The README states requests are not stored and tool arguments are not logged, and that answers contain only what Applystead's public job and company pages already show. Job data comes from third-party employer career sites, so listings may be incomplete or out of date; verify details on the employer's own posting before acting.

README

Applystead MCP server

Search open jobs from employers' own career sites, straight from ChatGPT, Claude or any MCP client.

Applystead's MCP server is a remote, read-only Model Context Protocol server. It searches the open roles Applystead publishes from employers' own applicant tracking systems (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday and more), lists a company's open jobs, and checks whether a job posting is still open. No install, no API key, no sign-in.

  • Server URL: https://applystead.com/mcp
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP (stateless JSON responses)
  • Authentication: none (the data is public)
  • Docs: https://applystead.com/developers

Other MCP clients

Try it with curl:

sh
curl -s https://applystead.com/mcp -H 'content-type: application/json' \  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"search_jobs","arguments":{"query":"data engineer","limit":3}}}'
