Glassdoor Reviews Filtering API

Our Glassdoor Reviews API supports the filters of Glassdoor's reviews page: a keyword search, the location, job title and employment status of the reviewers, current employees, the rating and the language.


The reviews are from full-time and part-time employees, unless employment_status says otherwise.


The API endpoint is https://serpapi.com/search?engine=glassdoor_reviews

API parameters

Geographic location

location

Optional

Parameter defines the location of the reviewers' jobs: a city, state or country (e.g., New York, NY, California, or India). We use the first location Glassdoor suggests with that name, or else its first suggestion.

Localization

Glassdoor's search of q only covers English reviews, so the language doesn't apply to searches with q.

es - Spanish
pt - Portuguese
it - Italian
nl - Dutch

Optional

Parameter defines the text to search for in the reviews, like the review search box of Glassdoor (e.g., work life balance or remote).

Searches with q return the reviews rated rating or higher (e.g., 4 for 4 and 5 stars).
