## Pricing

from $2.00 / 1,000 justjoin.it job returneds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## JustJoin.it Scraper — Tech Jobs & Salaries

**Free plan limit:** Free-plan users can receive up to **5 result records per run**. Paid-plan and local/unknown runs retain the Actor's existing limits.

Collect structured public job offers from [JustJoin.it](https://justjoin.it/). The Actor accepts JustJoin.it search, category, location, and individual job URLs, then returns one clean dataset row per unique job.

### What you get

- Job title, stable ID, company, company size, and company URL
- City, street, country, coordinates, and workplace type
- Experience level, job category, remote-interview flag
- Required and nice-to-have skills
- Contract-specific salary ranges, currency, unit, and gross/net flag
- Description, publication and expiration dates, application URL, and source URL

### Input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://justjoin.it/job-offers/all-locations/data" }
  ],
  "keyword": "Python",
  "maxResults": 10,
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "maxRequestRetries": 2
}
```

Use URLs copied from the public JustJoin.it job board. A URL under `/job-offers/` collects the public jobs visible on that search page. A URL under `/job-offer/` collects that one job. Results are deduplicated across inputs. The optional `keyword` is matched against title, company, location, category, skills, and description.

### Output example

```json
{
  "jobId": "fdeef542-5fcc-4ac5-abdc-9260f9dcbc92",
  "title": "Senior Backend Developer",
  "company": "Example Company",
  "city": "Krakow",
  "workplaceType": "hybrid",
  "experienceLevel": "senior",
  "category": "go",
  "employmentTypes": [
    { "type": "b2b", "currency": "PLN", "from": 25000, "to": 32000, "unit": "month", "gross": false }
  ],
  "requiredSkills": ["Node.js", "REST API"],
  "niceToHaveSkills": ["Go"],
  "jobUrl": "https://justjoin.it/job-offer/example"
}
```

The default dataset contains only job records. Run diagnostics and warnings are stored in the `SUMMARY` key-value-store record.

### Pricing

This Actor uses **pay-per-event** pricing. These are the current Apify Store event prices:

| Event | Price (USD) | When it is charged |
|---|---:|---|
| `apify-actor-start` | $0.00005 | Actor Start — Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). — Charged once per run. |
| `apify-default-dataset-item` | $0.001 | JustJoin.it job returned — One unique, schema-valid JustJoin.it job delivered to the default dataset. |

Apify platform usage for this Actor run is included alongside the event prices above; no separate per-run platform-usage fee is passed to users.

This covers Apify platform usage for this Actor run. Other Apify products or usage outside this Actor run may still follow your account plan.

### Reliability and limits

The Actor uses public, server-rendered JustJoin.it pages and JSON-LD rather than a browser. Requests have bounded concurrency, 30-second timeouts, exponential backoff, deduplication, schema validation, and a systemic-failure circuit breaker. One search page currently exposes up to roughly 100 current jobs; use multiple category/location URLs to broaden a run. Page availability and fields can change when JustJoin.it changes its public site.

### Responsible use

Use the data in accordance with JustJoin.it terms, robots directives, applicable privacy and database laws, and the job posters' rights. This Actor accesses public pages only; it does not bypass logins, CAPTCHAs, paywalls, or other access controls. Avoid republishing personal data or sending unsolicited messages.
