## 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`).

### What can I get

- 💼 **390,000+ live jobs on 8 boards** — Germany, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, the UK & South Africa: title, employer, location, salary & posting date
- 🔍 **Every key Stepstone filter** — location, radius, posting date, remote / hybrid, minimum salary, full or part time & quick apply

### Why Stepstone Scraper

Most other Stepstone scrapers fail you in one of four ways:

- 🗄️ **Inaccurate, cached, stale data**
- 🧩 **Low-detail data** — a few fields per job, never the full picture
- 💸 **Pay more to get the same data**
- 🪦 **Works today, breaks next month** — nobody maintains it

Stepstone Scraper is scraped live on every run, priced honestly, and actively maintained.

### FAQ

**Which job boards can I scrape?** All 8 Stepstone Group boards: stepstone.de, stepstone.at, stepstone.be, stepstone.nl, Totaljobs, CWJobs, NIJobs and Pnet. Pick one in **Job board**, or paste a link from any of them.

**How many jobs can one search return?** Up to 5,000 — Stepstone's own limit per search. For more, split by city or posting date.

**Can I use filters the input doesn't list, like skills or sectors?** Yes. Set them on stepstone.de, copy the result link and paste it into **Stepstone links**. The page's own filters are kept.

**Can I get every job of one employer?** Yes. Add the employer's page link, its slug-ID (`bmw-group-27361`) or its ID to **Employers**.

**Is the salary real?** Stated salaries come straight from the ad. On the German-language boards most ads also carry Stepstone's own salary estimate, flagged `salary_is_predicted: true`.

**What does a detailed job cost?** $2 per 1,000 rows: $1 for the row plus $1 for the full details. A 10,000-job run with details costs about $20.

**What if a job has expired?** Expired job links are skipped and not billed.

Where to search, as typed in Stepstone's "Where" box: "Berlin", "München", "London", "Wien".
