What it does

The actor loads one or more Personio company career pages, reads every open job, optionally fetches each job's full description, applies the filters you pass as input, and writes one normalized record per role to the run's dataset. The description is returned three ways: the raw descriptionHtml, a clean descriptionText, and the structured sections array with each named block kept separate, so you can index or display it however you need.

You point it at a company by its Personio subdomain (for example ottonova or optiply), the career page host (optiply.jobs.personio.com) or the full career page URL. Add one entry per company to scrape several boards in a single run. Missing source values are returned as null, never invented.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns up to 10 jobs across four Personio companies with full descriptions.

{
  "maxJobs": 10,
  "withDetails": true,
  "companies": ["ottonova", "optiply", "everphone", "clark"],
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "enrichContacts": false,
  "enrichContactsMax": 50
}

companies is required; every other field is optional. Turn withDetails off for a faster, lighter run that returns only the listing fields (title, location, department, employment type, seniority, schedule, apply URL, dates).

Example output record

Real record from a live run (input {"companies": ["ottonova","optiply","everphone","clark"], "maxJobs": 10, "withDetails": true}), listing fields shown with the description trimmed:

  "company": "ottonova Holding AG - 9680",
  "location": "München",
  "offices": ["München"],
  "department": "Finance",

  "yearsOfExperience": null,

  "url": "https://ottonova.jobs.personio.com/job/2656243",
  "jobId": "2656243",
  "subcompany": "ottonova Holding AG - 9680",

}

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~personio-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"companies":["ottonova"],"maxJobs":25,"withDetails":true}'

Start a run asynchronously:

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

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/personio-jobs-scraper \
  --input '{"companies":["clark"],"remoteOnly":true}'

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 returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Contact enrichment add-on. When enrichContacts is on, each attempted row is billed once (contact-search-attempt) plus an extra charge only when an email is found (contact-email-found). Off by default.
• No charge on failure. If a company errors, the actor writes an 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 jobs per run, and the enrichment add-on at 3 rows. Upgrade for higher maxJobs.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The company subdomain was wrong, the company has no open roles, or your filters matched nothing. Confirm the subdomain from the *.jobs.personio.com URL and loosen the filters. Zero-result runs are not charged.

Where do I find the company subdomain? Open the company's Personio career page. The subdomain is the first label of the host, for example ottonova in ottonova.jobs.personio.com. Paste that, the host, or the full URL into companies.

Can I scrape several companies at once? Yes. Add one entry per company to the companies array. maxJobs caps the total across all companies.

How do I get only the listing fields, faster? Turn withDetails off. The actor then skips each job's detail fetch and returns the lightweight fields only.

Why is descriptionHtml missing? You ran with withDetails off. Turn it on to include the full description and structured sections.

Is this an official Personio tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with Personio. It reads only data that is publicly available on company career pages.
