What it does

The actor searches Hong Kong job listings for the keywords you pass, optionally narrows each keyword to the districts you list, paginates through the matching jobs, and writes one normalized record per job to the run's dataset. Each record includes the title, company, district, salary band and label, employment type, work arrangement, category and the listing highlights. Missing source values are returned as null, and optional paid add-ons can find a public business contact email, write a concise AI summary and extract required skills and inferred seniority.

Data covers Hong Kong job listings from JobsDB. It is independent and has no affiliation with JobsDB or SEEK.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns two software-engineer jobs with both AI add-ons on.

{
  "searchQueries": ["software engineer"],
  "maxJobs": 2,
  "withJdSummary": true,
  "withSkills": true
}

Leave searchQueries empty to return all Hong Kong jobs. Every input field is optional; with an empty input the actor searches the prefilled keyword (developer, default maxJobs 50, capped at 10 on free plans).

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~hongkong-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["accountant"],"locations":["Central"],"maxJobs":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~hongkong-jobs-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["nurse","developer"],"maxJobs":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/hongkong-jobs-scraper \
  --input '{"searchQueries":["marketing"],"locations":["Kwun Tong"]}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per job record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Add-on events. Contact search attempt (contact-search-attempt), contact email found (contact-email-found), AI job summary (ai_jd_summary) and AI required skills (ai_skills) are billed separately, and only when they produce usable output.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run (contact enrichment capped at 3). Upgrade for higher maxJobs.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The keyword or district matched nothing. Try a broader keyword, remove locations, or check the district spelling. Zero-result runs are not charged.

Why is the salary null? Many Hong Kong listings do not publish a salary range and instead show a salaryLabel such as Gratuity or Negotiable. Missing source values are returned as null, never invented.

Can I search several keywords and districts at once? Yes. Each keyword is searched, and each district in locations is applied to every keyword, so one run can cover many combinations.

Do I get the company contact? Each record includes the company name and advertiser ID where JobsDB exposes them. Enable the contact enrichment add-on to also attempt a public business email.

What do the AI add-ons return? withJdSummary fills aiJdSummary; withSkills fills aiSkills and aiSeniority. Both are billed only on usable output and require a paid Apify plan.

Is this an official JobsDB tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with JobsDB or SEEK. It reads only publicly available job listings. Use the results in accordance with the source's terms and applicable laws.
