Prace.cz Scraper

Prace.cz is a Czech job board that aggregates current job vacancies from employers, employment offices and staffing agencies across the Czech Republic and abroad. The site lets users search listings by profession, location and employment type to find and apply for suitable positions.

Introduction

This actor crawls Prace.cz search results and job detail pages. You can start from search URLs or provide filters to build the search URL automatically.

Use Cases

• Job market research and trend analysis
• Job aggregation for internal tools
• Competitive hiring insights
• Company and role monitoring

Input

Provide the following fields:

• startUrls (array, optional): Search or job detail URLs from prace.cz.
• maxItems (integer, optional): Maximum number of jobs to extract.
• proxyConfiguration (object, optional): Apify proxy configuration. Example: { "useApifyProxy": true }.
• locationQuerys (array, optional): Location keywords. The actor resolves these into internal locality codes.
• professions (array, optional): Profession categories. Must match one of the allowed values.
• keywords (array, optional): Keyword filters. Must match one of the allowed values.
• fullTime (boolean, optional): Filter for full-time jobs.
• partTime (boolean, optional): Filter for part-time jobs.
• temporary (boolean, optional): Filter for temporary jobs.
• minimalSalary (string, optional): Minimum salary filter. Must match one of the allowed values.
• education (string, optional): Education level filter. Must match one of the allowed values.
• suitableFor (string, optional): Suitability filter. Must match one of the allowed values.

Notes:

• Provide at least one of startUrls or any filter input (such as locationQuerys, professions, or keywords).
• For each locationQuerys value, the actor uses the first suggestion returned by the website.
• Many job detail pages redirect to external websites; these external listings are skipped.
