CWJobs Scraper collects current public UK technology vacancies from cwjobs.co.uk. Use it for recruitment research, salary benchmarking, job feeds, and employer hiring analysis.

🔍 What can you collect?

• Job title, direct source link, posting date, and closing date when published.

• Location, region, postcode, and published map coordinates.
• Salary minimum, maximum, currency, period, and original salary text.
• Employment type, industry, remote status, and application route.
• Full job description when you choose the optional detail-page mode.

Missing optional values are left empty. The Actor does not invent employer, salary, or location data.

🚀 How to use it

STEP 1 Choose your search Enter keywords and locations, or paste CWJobs links.

STEP 2 Set the scope Filter by contract, remote status, posting age, and result limit.

STEP 3 Use the results Open the matching output dataset, export the data, or schedule another run.

The cost-efficient Cheap listing cards mode is selected by default. It collects the useful search-card fields without opening every vacancy page. Choose Full job details when you need descriptions and structured detail fields; that mode makes one additional page request per saved vacancy and therefore costs more.

The maxItems setting applies to the entire run. The Actor continues through unsuitable or duplicate pages until it reaches the limit or exhausts the available listings.

🗂️ Output datasets

• All saved CWJobs rows: The canonical paid dataset for the run. It contains every saved listing-card or enriched job-detail row.
• Listing cards: Card-level rows from Cheap listing cards mode only; no job-detail page was requested for these vacancies.
• Enriched job details: Full JobPosting rows from Full job details mode only, with recruitment-lead and compensation perspectives.

The focused datasets mirror accepted canonical rows after they are saved, so they do not add paid results or charges.

💰 Pricing

Pricing is pay per saved job, with a small run-start charge. You are not charged for pages that are filtered out or fail to produce a saved result. Listing mode is the lower-cost choice; full-detail mode uses an additional vacancy-page request for each saved job. There is no fixed subscription.

❓ FAQ

Can maxItems return exactly the number I request?

Yes, when enough matching vacancies are available. Duplicate, outdated, or mismatched jobs do not consume the limit. The run continues until it saves the requested number or exhausts the available listings.

Can I collect contract or remote jobs only?

Yes. Choose the relevant contract type or enable remote-only search. Each saved row keeps the employment type published by CWJobs.

How fresh is the CWJobs data?

Each run reads the public vacancies available at that time. Use the posting-age filter and Apify schedules for recurring searches.

What happens when a page is unavailable or lacks optional details?

Temporarily unavailable pages are tried again. Jobs with a genuine ID and title can still be saved when optional fields are missing. Missing values are never fabricated.

🛟 Support and responsible use
