StepStone DACH Job Listings Scraper Features

• Covers all three StepStone properties — stepstone.de, stepstone.at, and stepstone.be — in a single run
• Extracts 24 fields per listing, including salary range, currency, and period where disclosed
• Returns the full job description as clean HTML, not just a search-result snippet
• Classifies work mode (onsite / hybrid / home-office), contract type, and employment type from the listing and job ad text
• Search by any keyword or job title — defaults to a broad set of category terms per country if left empty
• Filter to one, two, or all three countries per run
• Deduplicates listings that surface under more than one search keyword

How StepStone DACH Job Listings Scraper Works

1. You choose one or more countries (de, at, be) and, optionally, your own search keywords
2. The actor searches StepStone's keyword/category listing pages for each country and keyword, paginating through results
3. Each listing's search-result card is parsed for title, company, location, and badges
4. The actor then opens each job's own page to pull the full description, salary details, and posting date
5. Structured records are returned as they're collected, up to your maxItems limit

Input

{
  "countries": ["de", "at"],
  "keywords": ["softwareentwickler", "vertrieb"],
  "maxItems": 200
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
countries	array	["de", "at", "be"]	StepStone country properties to include
keywords	array of strings	(broad default set per country)	Job titles or categories to search. Leave empty for a wide default sweep of category terms
maxItems	integer	10	Maximum number of job listings to return

Resuming a large crawl

Every run emits a resumeCursor in its Output. If a large crawl stops before it finishes — because it hit maxItems, your spend cap (maxTotalChargeUsd), or was aborted — start a new run with the same input plus that resumeCursor to continue from where it left off. The crawl resumes from the queued work the previous run didn't reach.

• You are not re-charged for records the earlier run already delivered.
• Resume within your account's run-retention window — on the free tier, roughly your 10 most recent runs. Once the source run is pruned, its resumeCursor is no longer valid.
• resumeCursor is opaque — supply it unmodified.

FAQ

Does this cover Germany, Austria, and Belgium in one run?

Yes. Set countries to any combination of de, at, and be — the default covers all three.

What if I don't supply keywords?

The actor falls back to a broad default set of category terms per country (software, sales, marketing, healthcare, engineering, and more), so a default run still reaches a wide slice of each market.

Is salary data available for every listing?

Only when the employer discloses it. StepStone doesn't require salary ranges on postings, so salary_min/salary_max are null for listings that don't include one.
