StepStone Jobs Scraper

What is StepStone Jobs Scraper?

StepStone Jobs Scraper turns a keyword and a German city or region into one row per job from StepStone.de, Germany's large job board: title, company, location with coordinates, remote option, employment type, category, posting date, job link and apply link, plus the full job description when details are on. Recruiters, HR analysts, job seekers, labour market researchers and AI agents use it to track German job openings by role and region, with no StepStone account.

Why recruiters use it

• German jobs by role and place. Search in German or English, such as pflegefachkraft or data engineer, in Berlin or Bayern.
• Fresh postings only. postedWithin keeps jobs from the last 1, 3, 7, 14 or 30 days.
• Remote filter. workFromHomeOnly returns home-office jobs.
• Full descriptions. enrichDetails adds the complete job text from each posting.
• Pay per job. One charge per job returned.

Example workflow: weekly hiring signals for a staffing agency

A staffing agency in Munich tracks demand for electricians and mechatronics technicians. A weekly task runs both keywords for München with postedWithin set to 7. They count postings by company to find employers hiring several people, and call those companies first. Then they check the same roles on the federal job board with Bundesagentur Job Scraper.

Pricing

This Actor uses Pay per event. Apify platform usage is included in the event price. You pay one event per job returned, plus a start event per run. The live Pricing tab on this page shows the current price.

• 2 keywords × 50 jobs = 100 job events.
• Full descriptions come at no extra event charge.
• maxItems caps each run, so it doubles as a cost ceiling.

Job research with AI agents (MCP)

Connect this Actor to an AI agent through Apify MCP and ask in plain language:

Find remote Python developer jobs in Germany posted in the last three days and list the companies.

Agent checklist:

1. Put the role in keyword and the place in location (German spelling).
2. Use postedWithin and workFromHomeOnly from the request.
3. Read rows with get-dataset-items; share jobUrl for each job.

Builder's note

I found that recruiters mostly need to know who is hiring now, so each row keeps the posting date and company with a direct apply link. I learned that German job titles carry the details, such as "(m/w/d)" and seniority, so titles are kept exactly as posted.
