## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Talent.com Scraper — Job Ads From 21 Countries

Export job postings from **Talent.com** in any of 21 national markets — company, city, apply link and description snippet — to JSON, CSV or Excel. Pick the country from a dropdown. Keyless, no login.

### What does Talent.com Scraper do?

Talent.com aggregates vacancies from employer career sites, staffing agencies and other boards, and publishes them on a separate domain for each market. This Actor reads those listings directly — server-rendered HTML, no API key, no account, no cookies.

**One Actor covers every market.** Choose the country in the input and the run switches domain and interface language automatically: `de.talent.com` for Germany, `fr.talent.com` for France, `ca.talent.com` for Canada, and so on across 21 countries. There is no reason to run twenty separate scrapers for what is the same site.

Two markup details decide whether the output stays clean. Talent.com's class names carry **per-build hashes** (`JobCard_title__X32Qk`), so any selector pinned to a full class name breaks on the next deploy — this Actor matches the stable prefix instead. And the contract-type chip is only rendered on **some** national sites; where the market does not publish it, the column is left out of the row entirely rather than shipped as a permanently empty field.

### Supported countries

United States · Canada · United Kingdom · Ireland · Germany · Austria · Switzerland · France · Belgium · Netherlands · Italy · Spain · Portugal · Poland · Sweden · Mexico · Brazil · Argentina · Australia · India · South Africa

### Who is it for?

- **Recruitment agencies** tracking hiring activity across several markets from one pipeline.
- **B2B sales teams** using hiring signals to spot companies that are growing.
- **Job boards and aggregators** filling a country feed without a data licence.
- **Market analysts** comparing demand between countries and cities.
- **Relocation and remote-work platforms** sourcing roles by destination.

### Use cases

- Compare how many developer roles are open in Germany versus Poland this month.
- Build a weekly list of every company hiring nurses in a given city.
- Track posting volume per country to time a market entry.
- Feed a niche board with fresh listings from five markets using five scheduled runs.
- Spot the moment a target company opens its first role in a new country.

### Why use this Actor?

- **21 countries, one Actor** — country is a dropdown, not twenty separate tools.
- **Keyless** — no account, no token, no login.
- **Hash-proof selectors** — matches class prefixes, not build hashes.
- **Honest columns** — contract and salary fields appear only where the market publishes them.
- **Description snippet** included, so rows are triageable without opening each ad.
- **Time-budgeted** — a slow page ends the run cleanly with rows saved rather than being killed.

### What data can you extract?

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `jobId` | string | Talent.com posting ID |
| `title` | string | Job title |
| `jobUrl` | string | Public posting page |
| `companyName` | string | Hiring company |
| `location` | string | City and region as published |
| `employmentType` | string | Contract type — France only, where the site renders it |
| `salaryLabel` | string | Salary as advertised, where the market publishes it |
| `salaryFrom` | number | Numeric floor for sorting |
| `quickApply` | boolean | One-click apply available |
| `updatedLabel` | string | How recently the ad was refreshed |
| `snippet` | string | Opening of the description |
| `country` | string | Market name, e.g. Germany |
| `countryCode` | string | Two-letter market code |
| `source` | string | Origin marker, e.g. `talent_de` |
| `scrapedAt` | string | Run timestamp (ISO 8601) |

#### Example output

```json
{
  "jobId": "631370092951112258",
  "title": "Gesundheits- und Krankenpfleger (m/w/d)",
  "jobUrl": "https://de.talent.com/view?id=631370092951112258",
  "companyName": "Confidential - DE",
  "location": "Moabit, Germany",
  "quickApply": true,
  "updatedLabel": "Last updated: 2 days ago",
  "country": "Germany",
  "countryCode": "de",
  "source": "talent_de"
}
```

### How to use it

1. Pick the **country** from the dropdown.
2. Enter a keyword in the local language — or leave it empty to walk the newest postings.
3. Optionally add a city and a search radius.
4. Set **Maximum results** and run, then export JSON, CSV or Excel.

### Input example

```json
{
  "country": "de",
  "query": "entwickler",
  "location": "Berlin",
  "maxResults": 1000
}
```

### Notes and limits

- Keywords work in the **local language** of the market you pick. "developer" returns results in most markets; "entwickler" or "desarrollador" return far more.
- Only France renders a contract-type chip. Other markets omit `employmentType`, `salaryLabel` and `salaryFrom` entirely rather than returning empty columns.
- Talent.com is an aggregator, so the same role can appear from more than one upstream source. Rows are de-duplicated by posting ID within a run.
- This Actor exports listing cards, not full descriptions — that is what keeps bulk runs cheap. Open `jobUrl` for the full text.
- You are responsible for how you use employer data, including under GDPR where it applies.

### FAQ

**Do I need a Talent.com account?**
No. Postings are public and this Actor needs nothing from you.

**Can I scrape several countries in one run?**
One run covers one market. Schedule one run per country — the dropdown makes each task a one-line change.

**Is salary included?**
Only where Talent.com publishes it, which today is France. Everywhere else no salary column is emitted, because an always-empty field is worse than none.

**Will it break when Talent.com restyles?**
It is built to survive that: selectors match class prefixes rather than build-hashed names.

**How am I charged?**
Pay per result — you pay for the postings delivered.

# Actor input Schema

## `country` (type: `string`):

Which Talent.com national site to scrape. Each country has its own listing, so pick the market you want.

## `query` (type: `string`):

Free-text search in the local language, e.g. "entwickler" for Germany or "developpeur" for France. Leave empty to walk the newest postings.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Optional city or region filter, e.g. "Berlin", "Paris" or "Toronto".

## `radius` (type: `integer`):

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many postings. The Actor walks pages until the target is met.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Talent.com serves plain HTML; the default datacenter proxy is enough.

```json
{
  "country": "de",
