Milkround UK Graduate Jobs Scraper

Scrape UK graduate jobs, schemes, internships, placements and apprenticeships from Milkround, the UK's dedicated graduate recruitment site. Give it keywords, a location or a Milkround search URL and get every listing back as structured JSON: employer, salary, scheme type, sector, degree class, start date, closing date, full description and location detail.

What it does

Pulls live UK graduate vacancies from Milkround search results, deduplicates them and pushes them to your Apify dataset. Pagination is automatic up to your result caps. With includeJobDetails on, it also opens each job page for the full description, structured location, closing date, category and employer size, and extracts emails, phones and links written in the ad text. With includeCompanyDetails on, it adds each unique employer's profile (about text, address, website when published, open roles).

Running the actor with an empty input returns the newest Milkround graduate jobs (5 by default).

  "includeJobDetails": true,
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 25,
  "maxResults": 50

Field	Type	Notes
searchQueries	array	Keyword queries such as software engineer or finance internship. Each runs as its own search.
searchUrls	array	Milkround search URLs. Filters in the URL are preserved and sort is applied on top.

sortBy	string	newest (default) or relevance. Use newest for scheduled scrapes.
maxResults	integer	Total cap across all queries.
maxResultsPerQuery	integer	Cap per keyword or URL. To give every keyword its full cap, set maxResults to at least maxResultsPerQuery times the number of keywords.
includeJobDetails	boolean	Open each job page for full description, location detail, category and employer size.
includeCompanyDetails	boolean	Also fetch each unique employer profile. Implies includeJobDetails.
titleFilter	string	Comma-separated title terms (OR match, case-insensitive). Non-matching rows are dropped before any detail fetch, so you do not pay for them.

Precision title filter

{
  "searchQueries": ["graduate scheme"],
  "titleFilter": "engineer, analyst",
  "maxResults": 50
}

Speed and scale

Search-only runs return about 25 jobs per page. Detail mode fetches one extra page per job, so expect roughly 1 to 2 minutes for 30 detail rows. Very large runs are best split by keyword.

Notes and limits

• URLs: Milkround and Totaljobs share one backend. Milkround has no job pages of its own, so job_url points to the totaljobs.com page where the job lives. Applying happens there through a script flow, which is why apply_url equals job_url.
• Closing dates: closing_date and expires_at come from the platform's listing expiry, which is set about six weeks after the posting date. It is not always an employer-set deadline; check the description for real application deadlines.
• Salary: many graduate schemes say "Competitive", which stays a null range. A few employers publish a bare number with no currency or period; that is kept in salary_text only.
• Contacts: Milkround has no recruiter name, email or phone field. contact_* fields only contain what the employer wrote in the ad text.
• Employer website: Milkround employer pages do not publish a website field. company_website is filled only when the employer's about text links to it.
• scheme_size is only set when the ad names a cohort size; degree_required stays null when the ad names no grade.
• Coverage is UK graduate opportunities; international rotational schemes appear occasionally.
