What is MyJobMag Jobs Scraper?

MyJobMag is a job board with separate sites for Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. When we checked in October 2026, MyJobMag's search listed 34,390 jobs in Nigeria, 33,492 in South Africa, and 12,035 in Kenya.

MyJobMag Jobs Scraper turns MyJobMag job listings into a dataset. Pick a country, add a keyword or filters, and run. It's a simple MyJobMag API alternative: you don't need an account, an API key, or any code.

• 🌍 Five countries. Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and the UK, each on its own MyJobMag site.
• 🔎 Search and filters. Keyword, location, job field, and education, combined the same way as on MyJobMag.
• 🧠 Smart filter matching. Each country uses its own names for fields and qualifications. Type "IT" or "Bachelor" and the Actor picks the matching MyJobMag value, like "ICT / Computer" or "BA/BSc/HND".
• 🛑 No silent misses. MyJobMag ignores filter values it doesn't know and shows all jobs instead. The Actor stops and lists the valid values, so you never pay for unfiltered results.
• 📄 Full job details. Opens every job to get the description, qualification, experience, job type, salary range when listed, and closing date.
• ✉️ How to apply. The application instructions plus the email addresses and links found in them.
• 📅 Scheduling and monitoring. Run daily with Apify Schedules to collect new jobs as they're posted.
• 🔌 API and integrations. Use the Apify API, or send jobs to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, Slack, or webhooks with Apify integrations.

How much does it cost to scrape MyJobMag?

MyJobMag Jobs Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay for each job saved to the dataset. Compute costs are included in the event price.

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold
job-scraped (per job)	$0.00099	$0.00089	$0.00079	$0.00079
Per 1,000 jobs	$0.99	$0.89	$0.79	$0.79

Use the MyJobMag Jobs Scraper API

Call the Actor from your own code with the Apify API client. Find your token in Apify Console → Settings → Integrations.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("parsebird/myjobmag-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={
    "country": "KE",
    "keyword": "accountant",
    "location": "Nairobi",
    "maxResults": 200,
})

for job in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(job["title"], job["companyName"], job["applicationEmails"])

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('parsebird/myjobmag-jobs-scraper').call({
    country: 'ZA',
    field: 'Banking',
    maxResults: 100,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((job) => console.log(job.title, job.location, job.datePosted));

You can also start runs over plain HTTP from the API tab, or connect the Actor to AI agents through the Apify MCP server.

Use cases

• Job alerts and aggregators. Collect new jobs daily and feed them to your own job site, newsletter, or Telegram or WhatsApp channel.
• Recruitment research. See which companies are hiring for a role, in which locations, and what they ask for.
• Labour market analysis. Track demand by job field, qualification, and experience level in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa.
• Lead generation. Find companies that are actively hiring, with their application emails and websites.
• Salary research. Collect salary ranges where employers publish them.

How it works

1. The Actor opens the MyJobMag site for your country and checks your location, field, and education against that site's own values.
2. It reads the search result pages and opens each job page for the full details.
3. In October 2026, MyJobMag's search returned no results on the Ghana and UK sites, even though both sites list jobs. There the Actor reads MyJobMag's category pages instead and matches your keyword and other filters against each job. Only matching jobs are saved and charged.
4. Each job is saved once per run.

FAQ

Do I need a MyJobMag account? No. The Actor only reads public job pages that anyone can open.

Why did my run stop with "is not a location"? MyJobMag only filters by the locations, fields, and qualifications in its own lists, and silently shows all jobs for anything else. To avoid charging you for unfiltered jobs, the Actor stops and lists the valid values. For example, Nigeria uses states like Lagos and Rivers, so a neighbourhood like Ikeja isn't accepted.

How many jobs can I get? Up to every job MyJobMag shows for your search. Set Max result pages and Max jobs to 0 for no limit. In our October 2026 test, 1,000 Nigerian jobs took about a minute and a half.

How does keyword search work in Ghana and the UK? Because MyJobMag's own search returned nothing on those two sites in our October 2026 tests, the Actor checks each job title and summary for your keyword instead. The scan stops at Max result pages, so raise it to look through more jobs.

Why are some fields empty? Employers don't always list a salary, deadline, or experience. Some older job pages also have less structured data, so experienceMonths and validThrough can be empty.

Can I schedule runs or export to Google Sheets? Yes. Use Apify Schedules for recurring runs and integrations for Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, Slack, and webhooks.

Something is missing or broken? Open an issue on the Issues tab. Feedback and feature requests are welcome there too.

Is it legal to scrape MyJobMag?

The Actor collects only public job listings that MyJobMag shows to every visitor. It doesn't log in or access any account data. Job posts can include names, email addresses, and phone numbers of recruiters, so follow data protection laws like Nigeria's NDPA, Ghana's Data Protection Act, Kenya's Data Protection Act, South Africa's POPIA, and the UK GDPR when you store or contact them.
