Elempleo Scraper — Colombia Job Offers & Salaries, No Phones

Get job offers from elempleo.com, one of Colombia's largest job boards: title, company (or "confidential"), city, the salary band in pesos a month as numbers, contract type, on-site / hybrid / remote, when it was posted, related positions, key skills and the ad text — and, from each job's page, the minimum experience and education level asked, the professions, job level, work area, working hours, vacancies, every city of the offer, sectors, department, the closing date and the full description. Paste your Elempleo search links — or just type a keyword and a city.

Why this one

• 🔗 Your search, as you set it up. Set every filter you like on elempleo.com and paste the link. Or type keywords here — contador, enfermera, desarrollador — with cities (Bogotá, Medellín, Cúcuta, Leticia…) and choose salary, contract type, work modality, job level, work area, "published within", experience asked and newest first below.
• 📋 The job page's details included. Minimum experience ("5 años de experiencia", and minExperienceYears as a number), education level, professions, job level and vacancies come with every job by default: in a live run all 2,504 jobs whose page was still online came with their experience, 2,354 with an education level, and 511 with a description longer than the 2,000 characters the result list shows.
• 💵 Salaries as numbers. salaryMin and salaryMax in COP a month for every job that shows its salary band — 1,883 of those 2,552 jobs; the others keep it confidential.
• ⚡ Fast. A live test run read four searches — every job in Medellín, every remote job, developers paid 6-10 million on a permanent contract, and "analista" in Bogotá from 4 million a month on a permanent contract — 2,552 jobs with their details in 6 minutes 57 seconds. Without the details, all of Bogotá (9,976 jobs — Elempleo serves the first 10,000 of a search) and "enfermera" (197 of 197) gave 10,173 jobs in 8 minutes 55 seconds.
• 🔒 No phone numbers, no contact names. Employers keep their company name, and "Empresa confidencial" stays unnamed. Phone numbers, WhatsApp links, e-mail addresses and the names of contact persons written into the ads are replaced with [phone removed], [e-mail removed] and [name removed] (in that 2,552-job run: 98 phone numbers, 65 e-mail addresses and 6 names). Salaries in the text stay as they are.
• 💸 You pay only for jobs delivered. A link that is not an Elempleo search, a link whose filters Elempleo does not understand, or a city Elempleo does not know comes back as a free record with the reason.

What you get

For every job:

Field	What it is
jobId, url, title	the job and its page on Elempleo
company, companyConfidential, companyId, companyLogo	the employer as Elempleo names it; no name, id or logo when the offer is confidential
city, multipleCities	where the job is (multipleCities is true when the offer is posted for several cities)
salaryText, salaryMin, salaryMax, currency, salaryPeriod	the salary band ("$6 a $8 millones") and as numbers, COP a month; empty when confidential
contractType, workModality	Indefinido, Definido, Por obra o labor, Prestación de servicios…; Presencial, Híbrido, Remoto
postedAt	the day it was published
relatedPositions, keywords	Elempleo's related positions and the key skills of the offer

From the job page (on by default): jobLevel, experience, minExperienceYears, educationLevel, professions, area, workingHours, vacancies, cities, department, sectors, inclusiveHiring, employmentType, validThrough — and the full description. A job whose page has closed since it was listed is left out and not charged.

How to use it

1. Paste Search links from elempleo.com, one per line — or type Keywords and Cities and choose the filters.
2. Set Max jobs per search, and untick Open every job for its details if the list data is enough and you want it faster.
3. Press Start, and download the results from the Output tab as JSON, CSV or Excel.

To follow new jobs, save your input as a task with Published within set to "Today and yesterday" and schedule it daily.

You can also call it from the Apify API, from Make, Zapier or n8n, or from an AI agent through the Apify MCP server.

Speed and the proxy. Elempleo answers the Apify servers directly, so every request goes out without a proxy first, at a steady pace of at most 8 requests a second; Apify's proxy is used only for a retry after a network error.

Pricing

You are charged per job delivered — see the price on this page. The job page's details cost nothing extra, only time. Links that are not Elempleo searches, links whose filters Elempleo does not understand and cities Elempleo does not know are free.

FAQ

How many jobs per search? Elempleo serves the first 10,000 jobs of a search and no more: in a live run, all of Bogotá gave 9,976 of its 13,991. Split a bigger search by city or by a filter (contract type, work area, salary) to get the rest. Up to that limit, set Max jobs per search as high as you need.

Why did a search give a few jobs less than Elempleo's count? Elempleo orders jobs by the day they were posted, and jobs of the same day change places between one page and the next, so a job can be listed twice while another one is skipped. The run counts every job once and reads the list again when it came up short: Medellín gave 1,490 of 1,494 jobs, the remote search 616 of 616.

What does the salary filter do? Elempleo files salaries in bands ("$4 a $4,5 millones"). Min salary keeps the bands that reach your amount and Max salary the bands that start below it; jobs with a confidential salary are left out. A live run asking for at least 4,000,000 a month got only jobs whose band starts at 4,000,000 or more.

Why do I get a few jobs fewer than the search shows? Elempleo's result list still shows some offers whose page has already closed (it answers "gone"): 48 of 2,552 in a live run. With details on, these are left out and not charged; the run log says how many.

Why is a job from another city in my city search? It is posted for several cities; multipleCities is true, and with the details cities lists all of them.

Why no phone numbers or contact names? They are personal data. Every job has its url; candidates apply on Elempleo.

Is this affiliated with Elempleo? No. This is an independent tool that reads public Elempleo job offers.
