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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ### Arbeitnow Jobs Scraper Extract structured job listing data from [Arbeitnow.com](https://www.arbeitnow.com), a job board focused on tech and professional roles in Germany and across the EU.

Open **Arbeitnow Jobs Scraper** in the [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com) and click **Try for free**. 2. Set optional filters — `keywords`, `location`, `remote`, `visaSponsorship` — or leave them blank to fetch the newest listings. 3. Set `maxJobs` and `maxPages` to control how much data the run collects. 4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish — most runs complete in under a minute. 5. Open the **Dataset** tab to preview, filter, and export results as JSON, CSV, or Excel. 6. For recurring monitoring, add a [Schedule](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) or call the actor via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) or [webhooks](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks). #### Python ```python from apify_client import ApifyClient client = ApifyClient("") run_input = { "keywords": "backend engineer", "visaSponsorship": False, "remote": True, "location": "Berlin", "maxJobs": 50, "maxPages": 3, } run = client.actor("parsebird/arbeitnow-jobs-scraper").call(run_input=run_input) for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items(): print(item["title"], "-", item["company"]) ``` #### JavaScript ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '' }); const input = { keywords: 'backend engineer', visaSponsorship: false, remote: true, location: 'Berlin', maxJobs: 50, maxPages: 3, }; const run = await client.actor('parsebird/arbeitnow-jobs-scraper').call(input); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); console.log(items); ``` ### How much does it cost to scrape Arbeitnow jobs? Arbeitnow Jobs Scraper uses **pay-per-event (PPE)** pricing — you're charged only for jobs actually returned, not for compute time. | Plan | Price per event | Price per 1,000 jobs | |------|-----------------|-----------------------| | Free | $0.00099 | $0.99 | | Bronze | $0.00089 | $0.89 | | Silver | $0.00079 | $0.79 | | Gold | $0.00069 | $0.69 | One `job-scraped` event fires per job pushed to the dataset. Scraping 500 jobs on the Free plan costs about **$0.50**. Every new Apify account gets [free platform credits](https://apify.com/pricing) to try the actor before paying anything. ### Is it legal to scrape Arbeitnow.com? Yes. Arbeitnow Jobs Scraper reads only Arbeitnow's own **public job board API**, which the site publishes for third-party use. It does not access private, authenticated, or paywalled data. Scraping publicly available data is generally legal, but you're responsible for using the collected data in compliance with Arbeitnow's terms of service and applicable data protection laws (e.g. GDPR) in your jurisdiction. See Apify's [guide to the legality of web scraping](https://blog.apify.com/is-web-scraping-legal/) for more detail. ### Other job scraper Actors - [Hiring.cafe Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/parsebird/hiring-cafe-scraper) — 2.8M+ aggregated job postings across 46 ATS platforms - [RemoteOK Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/parsebird/remoteok-jobs-scraper) — remote job listings with salary and skill tags - [Himalayas Remote Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/parsebird/himalayas-remote-jobs-scraper) — remote-first job board scraper - [Wellfound Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/parsebird/wellfound-jobs-scraper) — startup job listings from Wellfound (AngelList Talent) ### FAQ **How fresh is the Arbeitnow job data?** Arbeitnow updates its job board roughly every hour, and this actor always fetches live data at run time — there's no cached or stale dataset. **Is `visaSponsorship` an official Arbeitnow field?** No. Arbeitnow's public API does not expose a dedicated visa-sponsorship field, and its documented `visa_sponsorship` query parameter does not actually filter results. This actor derives `visaSponsorship` as a best-effort signal by matching visa- and sponsorship-related phrases in the job title, tags, and description. Treat it as a helpful heuristic, not a guarantee — always confirm sponsorship directly with the employer. **Can I schedule recurring runs?** Yes. Use Apify's [Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) feature to run this actor daily, hourly, or on any interval, and pair it with a webhook or integration to get notified of new listings. **Does this actor use proxies or require login?** No. It queries Arbeitnow's public job board API directly, so no proxy configuration or authentication is needed. **What happens if my filters match no jobs?** The run finishes successfully with an empty dataset — no error is raised. Try loosening `keywords` or `location`, or increasing `maxPages`. **Can I access this via API?** Yes. Every Apify actor exposes a full [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2), so you can start runs, poll status, and fetch results programmatically from any language or platform. See the Python and JavaScript examples above. **Something not working?** Open an issue on the actor's **Issues** tab in Apify Console — feedback and bug reports are reviewed regularly. # Actor input Schema ## `keywords` (type: `string`): Only keep jobs whose title contains this text. Case-insensitive. Example: "backend engineer". Leave empty to fetch all jobs. ## `visaSponsorship` (type: `boolean`): Keep only jobs whose title, tags, or description mention visa sponsorship. Arbeitnow does not expose a dedicated visa-sponsorship field in its API, so this is a best-effort keyword match, not an official flag. ## `remote` (type: `boolean`): Keep only jobs Arbeitnow marks as remote-eligible. ## `location` (type: `string`): Only keep jobs whose location contains this text. Case-insensitive. Example: "Berlin" or "Germany". Leave empty for all locations. ## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of jobs to return. Capped at 500 per run. Start low for a quick, cheap test run. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of Arbeitnow API pages to fetch (roughly 100 jobs per page). The run also stops early once Max Jobs is reached. ## Actor input object example ```json { "keywords": "", "visaSponsorship": false, "remote": false, "location": "", "maxJobs": 20, "maxPages": 2 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `dataset` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
