• Intelligent Salary Parsing: Normalizes salary text on-the-fly, extracting minimum and maximum bounds, currency (ILS), and pay frequency (hourly vs monthly).

How Much Does It Cost to Scrape JobMaster?

$1.99 per 1,000 results.

We offer the best value at an affordable price—providing comprehensive general Israeli recruitment data at a lower price point than specialized competitors. Because the platform loads listings natively via server-side rendered HTML, there is zero headless browser overhead or expensive residential proxy data transfer fees.

Advanced Options & Tips

• Fast List Mode: Disable enrichDetail to run super-fast crawls. This will bypass retrieving descriptions, requirements, and contact details, letting you capture titles, locations, and company names at 10x the speed.
• Low Concurrency: Keep concurrency restricted to a modest maxConcurrency: 10 to remain respectful of the WordPress backend server.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

How does this scraper bypass bot protections?

JobMaster operates on a standard Microsoft IIS web server using classic ASP / ASP.NET. Unlike major competitors, the website has no active Radware Web Application Firewall (WAF) or PerimeterX challenge walls configured. Unauthenticated requests are welcomed with 200 OK status, meaning your crawls run unblocked without browser overhead.

Do I need a login or API Key?

No. All JobMaster vacancy listings are fully public and require no authentication or cookies to read.

Why is the company name confidential on some jobs?

To protect client databases from competitor poachers, some agencies and employers choose to list vacancies anonymously. In those instances, the companyName field is populated with the standard Hebrew confidentiality label "חברה חסויה".
