German Job Ads Scraper (Arbeitsagentur), 🇩🇪 Bundesagentur für Arbeit

Fast, browser-free scraper for job and Ausbildung listings from arbeitsagentur.de — built on the site's internal API, not a headless browser. Every ad comes back enriched with full company profile and contact details, not just the search-result snippet.

⚡ Why this one

• Most complete dataset available for this source — merges three separate upstream endpoints (search results, company profile, contact details) into one flat record per ad. Most alternatives only give you the search snippet.
• CAPTCHA solved automatically — the Arbeitsagentur contact endpoint is protected by an image captcha. This actor runs its own OCR solver, so contact details (email, phone, application links) come back without manual intervention.
• All Public data only — everything returned here is publicly visible on arbeitsagentur.de. No login bypass, no private data access, no ToS-violating scraping technique. Just structured extraction of what's already public.
• Proxies included — residential proxy pool is built in. You don't need to bring your own.
• Fast — no browser, no rendering wait. Pure HTTP calls to the same API the arbeitsagentur.de frontend uses.

🧾 What you get, per job ad

• Job details — title, profession, offer type, training type, salary by year, working hours, remote eligibility, dates
• Company profile — description, size, founding year, headquarters, photos, social links, employee benefits
• Contact details — name, email, phone, postal address, accepted application methods
• Optional keyword matching flag (word_match) against your own keyword list
