Reed
Reed's Jobseeker API searches the UK's reed.co.uk job listings by keyword, location, salary band, and contract type, returning employer and description data for each match. Access needs a free registered API key sent as the HTTP Basic-auth username, confirmed live by a genuine 401 challenge that also echoed a wildcard CORS header back.
