Computrabajo Scraper - LatAm Jobs (MX, CO, AR, PE, CL...)

Computrabajo Scraper - Latin America Jobs (MX, CO, AR, PE, CL, EC...)

Scrape job listings from Computrabajo, the largest job board in Spanish-speaking Latin America, in 17 countries in one run: Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Venezuela, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Panama. Every job comes with a parsed salary (min, max, ISO currency, period, commission flag), an ISO posting date (from "Hace 2 horas", "Ayer", "27 de octubre"), work mode (remote / hybrid / on-site), company rating and urgent/featured badges. Turn on job details for the full description, contract type, schedule, education, years of experience, languages and skills. Only-new-jobs mode turns it into a daily job-alert feed. No login, no browser, no start fee: you pay per job.

Use cases

• Salary benchmarking across Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile and Argentina for the same role, with numeric min/max and currency.
• Job alerts: schedule a daily run with "Only new jobs" and push new postings to Slack, Sheets or email.
• Recruiting and lead generation: find companies hiring in a city or industry (company name, rating and Computrabajo company page).
• Labour-market research: remote vs. on-site share, contract types, required experience and education per country.
• Job aggregators: feed LatAm listings into your own job board.

How to use

1. Pick one or more countries.
2. Enter keywords (one per line), e.g. desarrollador, enfermera, vendedor. Optional location: a city or state as Computrabajo names it (jalisco, bogota, lima, santiago).
3. Optionally limit to jobs posted within a period, turn on job details, or only new jobs.
4. Run, then download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel or via the API.

Developer jobs in Mexico (the prefilled example):

{ "country": ["mx"], "keywords": ["desarrollador"], "maxItems": 15 }

Nurse jobs in Bogotá with full details:

{ "country": ["co"], "keywords": ["enfermera"], "location": "Bogotá", "maxItems": 50, "fetchDetails": true }

Developer jobs posted last week in Mexico, Colombia and Argentina:

{ "country": ["mx", "co", "ar"], "keywords": ["desarrollador"], "postedWithin": "7days", "maxItems": 100 }

Any Computrabajo search URL (filters in the URL are kept):

{ "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://co.computrabajo.com/trabajo-de-enfermera-en-bogota-dc?pubdate=3" }], "maxItems": 200 }

Daily alert for new warehouse jobs in Chile:

{ "country": ["cl"], "keywords": ["bodeguero"], "onlyNew": true, "stateKey": "bodeguero-cl" }

maxItems applies to each country × keyword search (or each start URL). 0 = no limit.

Without job details, the detail fields are null and detailsStatus is "not-requested". Every item always has every key.

Pricing

Pay per event, no start fee:

Event	Price	When
job	$0.0015	Every job in the dataset
job-details	$0.0005	Only when "Fetch job details" is on and the job page was read successfully

Examples: 1,000 jobs ≈ $1.50; 1,000 jobs with full details ≈ $2.00. Jobs skipped by "Only new jobs" are not charged. Set "Maximum cost per run" in the run options and the Actor stops cleanly at that budget.

Tips and limits

• Location is matched the way Computrabajo builds its URLs: Bogotá → /trabajo-de-enfermera-en-bogota. If a city doesn't exist in a country you get 0 jobs and a warning in the run summary. When in doubt, search on the site and paste the URL into Start URLs.
• Keywords become Computrabajo's /trabajo-de-<keyword> searches. Spanish job titles work best (desarrollador, not developer).
• postedAt is the date Computrabajo shows on the listing, which is when the offer was published or refreshed. With job details, firstPublishedAt is the original publication date.
• workMode: Computrabajo only badges remote and hybrid jobs; jobs without a badge are reported as onsite.
• Salary: many offers hide the salary ("A convenir"); then the salary fields are null. Venezuela listings use "$" for both dollars and bolívares, so salaryCurrency is null there unless job details give the currency.
• Vacancies are only filled when the job page states a number, which is rare.
• Computrabajo shows 20 jobs per page; very deep searches (thousands of pages) are capped at 250 pages per search.
• Runs are polite (max 3 parallel requests). A 100-job listing run takes a few seconds; with details, expect roughly 2-3 jobs per second.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Computrabajo? This Actor only reads public job listings that anyone can see without logging in, and it respects Computrabajo's robots.txt (filters it disallows on some URL types are removed from start URLs). It does not collect candidate data, CVs, or recruiter contact details: e-mail addresses and phone numbers are removed from descriptions. You are responsible for using the data in line with the site's terms and the data-protection laws that apply to you.

Do I need a proxy? Usually not. If Computrabajo starts returning HTTP 403/429 for Apify's servers, enable Apify Proxy (datacenter) in "Proxy configuration". Residential proxies are not supported: if you select them, the Actor falls back to Apify datacenter proxy and logs a warning.

How does "Only new jobs" work? Job IDs (country + offer ID) already output are remembered in a named key-value store under your "State key". The next run with the same key skips them (and doesn't charge for them). Use one state key per alert.

Why do some jobs show "Importante empresa del sector" as the company? That is how Computrabajo displays confidential employers. companyUrl is null for them.

Can I scrape a company's jobs page or a filtered search? Yes: paste any Computrabajo listing URL into Start URLs; its own filters (date, salary range, location...) are kept.
