Arbeitsagentur Scraper: German jobs, apprenticeships and internships with salary, employer and location

Arbeitsagentur Scraper collects job offers from the Jobbörse of the German Federal Employment Agency (Bundesagentur für Arbeit), the largest job board in Germany, without an account, cookies or a browser. Each job comes back as one clean row: title, occupation, employer, city, postal code, state and coordinates, working time, home office, contract type, salary when the employer publishes it, start date, publication dates, the partner job board it came from and, by default, the full job description.

It is used to build job market datasets for Germany, to track hiring by region, occupation or employer, to find apprenticeship (Ausbildung) and internship offers, to feed job aggregators and alert bots, and to give recruiting and HR teams a daily list of new openings.

At a glance

What	Price
Job delivered	US$ 1.80 per 1,000 jobs (US$ 0.0018 each)
Run start	US$ 0.005 per run

• 500 jobs with full descriptions = US$ 0.905. The description, the source partner and the employer profile cost nothing extra.
• Error rows, duplicates and jobs skipped by onlyNew are never charged. maxItems is a hard cap, and a spending limit set on the run stops it cleanly with everything delivered so far.
• Runs are fast: about 100 jobs per second without descriptions and 4 to 5 jobs per second with them.

Errors you may see

Every error is a row with errorCode and is never charged:

INVALID_URL	Not an arbeitsagentur.de search link, job link or reference number
NOT_FOUND	The job link points to an offer that expired or was removed
NO_RESULTS	The search and filters match no job; try a broader keyword or fewer filters
BLOCKED	The site refused every attempt for this search; run it again in a few minutes

Integrations, scheduling and AI agents

• Schedule a daily run with onlyNew on in Apify schedules to get only the jobs published since the last run, ready for alerts.
• Export as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, or read the dataset from the Apify API.
• Connect it to Make, n8n, Zapier, Slack or Google Sheets through Apify integrations.
• AI agents: call it as a tool through the Apify MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client, for example "list the permanent nursing jobs in Hamburg published this week with their salary".

FAQ

Do I need an account or an API key? No. The Actor uses the public job search the website and the official app use, with the public key they publish. Nothing to sign up for.

Does it cover Austria and other countries? The Jobbörse also lists offers abroad (mostly Austria, from the Austrian public employment service). Set location to Österreich or a city there.

How many jobs can one search return? The site serves at most 10,000 jobs per search. For a bigger slice, split it by location, occupation or offer type; duplicates across searches in the same run are delivered only once.

Why do some jobs have no salary? Most employers in Germany do not publish one. When they do, it comes as a fixed amount or a range per hour, month or year.

Are contact persons included? No. The Actor returns company data only. Emails, phone numbers and the names of contact persons in the description are replaced by [contact removed].

Is it legal? The Actor reads public job offers only. You are responsible for how you use the data under the laws that apply to you, including the GDPR.

Something broke or a field is missing? Open an issue on the Actor page; issues are answered within a day.

Limitations

• At most 10,000 jobs per search (a limit of the site).
• postedWithinDays follows the site options (today, 1, 7, 14 and 28 days).
• employer needs the exact employer name; a partial name returns nothing.
• Descriptions are in the language the employer wrote them, almost always German.
• Contact removal works on patterns; an unusual way of writing a name may slip through. Report it and it is fixed.

Changelog

• 16 Oct 2026: first version. Keyword, location, radius, offer type, working time, home office, contract, date, employer, agency filters and sorting; search and job links; full description and employer profile; onlyNew for schedules.
