Bayt Jobs Scraper

Extract job listings from Bayt.com — the leading job board for the Middle East and North Africa. Get job titles, companies, locations, salaries, experience requirements, and direct apply links without managing cookies, proxies, or Cloudflare challenges.

What it does

Bayt.com lists hundreds of thousands of active job postings across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, Qatar, and dozens of other MENA countries. This actor scrapes those listings at scale. Feed it a keyword and an optional location filter, and it returns structured job data ready for analysis, recruitment pipelines, or competitive research.

Each run fetches listing pages, bypasses Cloudflare's bot protection with a residential proxy, and saves every job card as a clean JSON record.

searchQuery	string	software engineer	Job title, skill, or keyword to search for
location	string	(empty)	Country or city filter (e.g. UAE, Saudi Arabia, Dubai)

Leave location blank to search globally across all MENA regions.

Notes

• Bayt.com is protected by Cloudflare. This actor uses residential proxies to bypass the challenge automatically — no configuration needed.
• Salary data is only available when the employer chooses to disclose it. Many listings omit salary.
• Description snippets are extracted from listing cards. Full job descriptions require visiting the individual job page.
• The maxItems cap applies to the total number of records saved, not the number of pages fetched.

Pricing

This actor uses Pay-Per-Event pricing. You are charged per record scraped. See the actor's pricing page for the current rate.
