Input

The scraper supports three input modes that can be used independently or combined:

Mode 1: Search Keywords (most common)

Search by keywords with optional filters. The scraper queries the WTTJ search backend directly.

{
  "searchQueries": ["Software Engineer", "Data Scientist"],
  "country": "fr",
  "language": "en",
  "location": "Paris",
  "contractType": "cdi",
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 100,
  "includeJobDetails": true
}

Mode 2: Search URLs (advanced filters)

Paste one or more search URLs copied directly from the Welcome to the Jungle website. This lets you use all filters available on the website (company size, experience level, commitments, language, etc.) — even filters not exposed in this actor's input. Just set up your search on welcometothejungle.com and copy the URL.

{
  "searchUrls": [
    "https://www.welcometothejungle.com/en/jobs?query=developer&refinementList%5Boffices.country_code%5D%5B%5D=FR&refinementList%5Bremote%5D%5B%5D=fulltime"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 100,
  "includeJobDetails": true
}

Mode 3: Direct Job URLs (specific listings)

Scrape specific job pages by URL. Useful for monitoring specific listings, alive checks, or scraping a curated list.

{
  "directUrls": [
    "https://www.welcometothejungle.com/en/companies/kactus/jobs/italian-speaker-venue-finder-business-developer_paris",
    "https://www.welcometothejungle.com/fr/companies/greenly/jobs/software-engineer-esg_paris"

Use cases

European tech talent intelligence

Welcome to the Jungle is the go-to job board for European tech, startup, and scale-up companies. Build a real-time feed of open engineering roles across Paris, Berlin, London, Madrid, and Prague — the beating heart of the European tech scene.

Salary benchmarking

Unlike many EU job boards, Welcome to the Jungle encourages employers to publish salary ranges. Aggregate structured salary_min / salary_max / salary_currency / salary_period fields to build compensation benchmarks by role, city, and seniority.

Employer branding analysis

Every job comes with rich company context — size, sector, benefits, culture labels (B-Corp, Equality Index, Google Career Certificates). Perfect for employer-brand research, competitive intel, and culture comparison across startups.

French recruitment

If you recruit into the French market, this is essential infrastructure. WTTJ is the dominant modern job board in France — CDI, CDD, stages, and alternance all flow through it.

Job monitoring & alive checks

Use Direct Job URLs mode to periodically check whether specific listings are still active — perfect for recruitment pipelines and competitive monitoring.

Advanced filtering via Search URLs

Not all WTTJ filters are exposed in this actor's input (e.g. company commitments, company size ranges, language requirements). Use Search URLs mode to leverage the full filter set from the WTTJ website — just set your filters, copy the URL, and paste it.

---

Speed & Concurrency

The scraper fetches multiple job detail pages in parallel, each through a different proxy IP, to maximize speed.

maxConcurrency	~100 jobs with details	Notes
10 (default)	~50 seconds	Good balance of speed and politeness
20	~30 seconds
50	~25 seconds	Maximum speed, all jobs fetched at once

Each worker gets its own proxy session (= unique IP), so requests are truly parallel without shared rate limiting.

Memory usage stays around 20-25 MB regardless of concurrency — you can safely run 50 workers at the minimum 128 MB RAM. Just set maxConcurrency to control speed.

Example: scraping 1,000+ jobs fast → set maxConcurrency: 50.

Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-result pricing:

Event	Price	When
job-start	$0.001	Once per run
job-serp-result	$0.001	Per job from search listing (when includeJobDetails is off)
job-detail-result	$0.001	Per job with full details fetched (replaces job-serp-result)

Cost examples

Scenario	Cost
100 jobs with includeJobDetails: true	$0.10 (100 detail events + 1 start)
100 jobs with includeJobDetails: false (SERP only)	$0.10 (100 SERP events + 1 start)
10 direct job URLs	$0.01 (10 detail events + 1 start)
1,000 jobs with full details	$1.00
