Swiss Job Search API
Job postings from Switzerland's four main boards — jobs.ch, jobup.ch, jobscout24.ch and LinkedIn — with the structure a Swiss hiring dataset needs and an international feed does not model.
Around 74,000 live postings, roughly 2,500 new per day.
What makes this Swiss rather than global
A worldwide LinkedIn feed carries far more postings than this and costs less per thousand. It cannot carry any of the following.
| Field | Coverage | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
canton | 92% | The two-letter code the posting's location resolves to, via a gazetteer over every Swiss municipality, locality and postal code — not a string match on the city name. Cantonal boundaries are how Swiss hiring, tax and commuting actually work. |
workload_pct_min / max | 40% | The Pensum, as the range the employer advertised: 80–100%. No international job schema models this, because it is not the full-time/part-time question. Swiss ads state it more often than they state a salary. |
contract_type | 40% | PERMANENT, TEMPORARY, INTERNSHIP or APPRENTICESHIP — the contract, separate from the hours above. |
category / department | ~90% | A 150-role taxonomy grounded in ISCO-08, under 33 departments, assigned per posting. Ask for backend_engineer, not title LIKE '%engineer%'. |
source_job_id | 100% | jobs.ch, jobup.ch and jobscout24.ch are one backend serving one vacancy under one id. This is that id, so the three boards are already deduplicated rather than arriving as three copies. |
min_years | 98% | Years of experience required, parsed from the posting text. -1 means the ad states none — distinct from "not looked at". |
language | 97% | Which language the ad is written in. German, French, Italian and English postings sit side by side in this market. |
Also included: title, company, company_id (the employer as an entity, not
a spelling), location, url, apply_url, logo_url, description (full
text), posted_at, scraped_at, and salary_min/max/currency/period
where the source stated one — exact when present, which is about 2% of rows.
Usage
Everything is optional. With no input you get the most recent postings across all of Switzerland.
For a daily sync, use postedWithinDays: 2 rather than 1. The overlap costs
one duplicate day and means a posting that arrives late is never missed. Rows
carry a stable id, so de-duplicating on your side is trivial.
Departments
Pass these keys in departments. Each holds several roles; pass role keys such
as backend_engineer in categories for a narrower cut.

Freshness
The crawl runs four times a day. posted_at is what the board published, and
scraped_at is when it reached this dataset — filter on the first, monitor the
second.
Limits
- Coverage is Switzerland. There is no international data here and there will not be.
salary_*is on ~2% of postings. Swiss ads mostly do not state pay; the Pensum is the field that carries the equivalent signal in this market.apply_urlis on ~12%. Most boards keep the apply step on their own site;urlalways points at the posting.- Postings are not re-verified after they are collected, so a small share of
older rows will have been filled at source. Filter on
postedWithinDaysif that matters to you.
