## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## MyJob.ch Jobs Search Scraper: Extract Swiss Job Listings at Scale

***

### What Is MyJob.ch?

MyJob.ch is Switzerland's premier job search platform, hosting thousands of active job listings across sectors and regions. It aggregates opportunities from major Swiss employers, SMEs, and international companies hiring in Switzerland. Manually reviewing job listings from search results pages is tedious — the **MyJob.ch Jobs Search Scraper** automates extraction, delivering clean, structured data from job listing pages.

***

### Overview

The **MyJob Jobs Search Scraper** targets job list pages on MyJob.ch and extracts comprehensive job records. It is built for:

- **Recruitment agencies** tracking Swiss labor market trends
- **Job market researchers** analyzing salary, location, and industry patterns
- **Career platforms** aggregating Swiss job data
- **HR professionals** benchmarking skill demands and industry movements
- **Data analysts** building Swiss employment datasets

Key strengths include bulk URL support, configurable scraping limits, and resilient error handling via `ignore_url_failures` — enabling reliable data collection even when individual pages fail.

***

### Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration with three main parameters:

```json
{
    "urls": [
        "https://www.myjob.ch/job/alle-jobs-seite-2"
    ],
    "max_items_per_url": 200,
    "ignore_url_failures": true
}
```

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | Array | Job list page URLs to scrape (e.g., search results pages, filtered categories) |
| `max_items_per_url` | Integer | Maximum jobs to extract per URL (default: 100, max recommended: 200) |
| `ignore_url_failures` | Boolean | If `true`, continues scraping if some URLs fail; if `false`, stops on first error |

**Notes:**

- Use full job list URLs or search results pages (e.g., `alle-jobs-seite-X` for all jobs by page)
- Adjust `max_items_per_url` based on list length — higher values take longer to process

***

### Output Format

### How to Use

1. **Identify target URLs** — Visit MyJob.ch and navigate to job search results. Copy list page URLs (including pagination parameters like `seite-2`, filtered categories, or keyword searches).
2. **Configure parameters** — Paste URLs into the `urls` array. Set `max_items_per_url` based on expected results (typical: 50–200).
3. **Set error handling** — Enable `ignore_url_failures: true` for bulk runs to skip broken links.
4. **Execute** — Start the scraper and monitor progress in the run log.
5. **Export** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis or integration.

**Tips & Best Practices:**

- Use filtered search URLs to narrow results (e.g., by region, job type)
- Start with smaller `max_items_per_url` values to test URLs
- Schedule recurring scrapes to track job market trends over time
- Combine `date_actualization` to identify recently updated postings

**Troubleshooting:**

- If no jobs are scraped, verify the URL is a search results or job list page, not a single job detail
- Check page structure hasn't changed on MyJob.ch
- Use `ignore_url_failures: true` when scraping many pages

***

### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Market intelligence:** Track hiring volume, salary trends, and skill demand across Swiss sectors
- **Competitive analysis:** Monitor competitor job postings, compensation benchmarks, and hiring pace
- **Research & analytics:** Build datasets for labor economics, industry trends, and regional employment studies
- **Platform integration:** Feed job data into custom job boards, career advice tools, or aggregators
- **Recruitment automation:** Identify new postings matching specific criteria (location, industry, salary range)

By automating data extraction, the MyJob Jobs Search Scraper reduces manual research time from hours to minutes while ensuring consistent, error-free data collection.
