Profession.hu Scraper: Hungary Jobs, Salaries and Employers

Extract job listings from Profession.hu (profession.hu), Hungary's largest generalist job board with over 17,000 active listings and 6 million monthly visitors. Covers all job types, regions, and sectors across Hungary.

No login required. No captcha. HTTP-only, no browser under the hood.

What it does

Pulls live job listings from Profession.hu. Results include Hungarian-specific fields: county (megye), employment type in Hungarian (Teljes munkaidő / Részmunkaidő / Alkalmi / Diákmunka), experience level (Kezdő / Junior / Medior / Senior / Vezető), remote type (home office / hibrid / irodai), education level (Alapfokú / Középfokú / Felsőfokú), job category (Profession.hu taxonomy), employer benefits (Cafeteria, Mobiltelefon, SZEP kártya, etc.), listing expiry date, HUF salary from JSON-LD baseSalary where disclosed, and skills/requirements text. Full job description is available in HTML, plain text, and Markdown.

By default (sortBy="newest"), results are sorted newest-first via the Profession.hu RSS feed. Switch to sortBy="relevance" to use the site's default SERP HTML ordering instead. Profession.hu has no other server-side sort options (no sort dropdown, no ?sort=/?rendezes=/?orderby= URL parameters) — these two paths are the only real data sources the actor can consume.

Use searchUrls to scrape a specific Profession.hu search result URL, or startUrls for direct job page URLs. Use searchQueries to browse the latest general listings.

Filter by:

• Search URLs: paste any Profession.hu search result URL directly
• Job detail URLs: scrape specific listings by URL
• Location: filter by Hungarian city (Budapest, Debrecen, Szeged, Miskolc, Pecs)
• Employment type: Teljes munkaidő, Részmunkaidő, Alkalmi, Diákmunka
• Remote only: return only home office / hibrid positions

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
