Automated Upwork job alerts with Airtable & Slack

Overview This automated workflow fetches Upwork job postings using Apify, removes duplicate job listings via Airtable, and sends new job opportunities to Slack.

Key Features: - Automated job retrieval from Upwork via Apify API - Duplicate filtering using Airtable to store only unique jobs - Slack notifications for new job postings - Runs every 30 minutes during working hours (9 AM - 5 PM)

This workflow requires an active Apify subscription to function, as it uses the Apify Upwork API to fetch job listings.

Who is This For? This workflow is ideal for: - Freelancers looking to track Upwork jobs in real time - Recruiters automating job collection for analytics - Developers who want to integrate Upwork job data into their applications

What Problem Does This Solve? Manually checking Upwork for jobs is time-consuming and inefficient. This workflow: - Automates job discovery based on your keywords - Filters out duplicate listings, ensuring only new jobs are stored - Notifies you on Slack when new jobs appear

How the Workflow Works

1. Schedule Trigger (Every 20 Minutes) - Triggers the workflow at 20-minute intervals - Ensures job searches are only executed during working hours (9 AM - 5 PM)

2. Query Upwork for Jobs - Uses Apify API to scrape Upwork job posts for specific keywords (e.g., "n8n", "Python")
