## Pricing

from $1.00 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

### What the SmartRecruiters scraper collects 💼

Collect employer vacancy listings. Track a company's public openings with role titles, employment types and the group labels used by its hosted careers page.

| Collection | What you receive |
|---|---|
| SmartRecruiters company jobs scraper | Job titles, grouping labels, categories and employment types; complete descriptions are outside this mode. |

Data can include:

- Vacancy identity: Job identifiers and published role titles.
- Employer: The employer career board supplied as input.
- Vacancy links: Original public links for the listed roles.
- Hiring groups: Group labels used to organise openings on the career board.
- Employment: The employment type published with each listing.
- Classification: Category text attached to the vacancy listing.

### How to scrape SmartRecruiters 🚀

1. Open the Actor input form.
2. Fill in the search fields, or paste links to the items you want to collect.
3. Set the maximum results and any optional filters.
4. Start the Actor and review the collected rows.
5. Export the dataset or connect it to your application.

#### SmartRecruiters company jobs scraper — input example

```json
{
  "mode": "smartrecruiters-employer-jobs-scraper",
  "companyPages": [
    "https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/Eurofins"
  ],
  "maxResults": 10
}
```

`maxResults: 10` means up to 10 results for **each input**. It does not guarantee that the website has that many matches. You can set the limit as low as 1.

### SmartRecruiters data fields and complete output 📦

| Field group | Included data |
|---|---|
| Vacancy identity | Job identifiers and published role titles. |
| Employer | The employer career board supplied as input. |
| Vacancy links | Original public links for the listed roles. |
| Hiring groups | Group labels used to organise openings on the career board. |
| Employment | The employment type published with each listing. |
| Classification | Category text attached to the vacancy listing. |

Each collected item is a separate row. `input` identifies the submitted value and `result_type` identifies the selected mode. All returned fields appear in one table; columns that do not apply to a mode can be empty.

A complete JSON result is shown for every collection mode below, in the same order as the input examples. Each example includes every field for its mode; text and lists are not shortened. Values are representative and can change.

#### SmartRecruiters company jobs scraper — complete JSON result

```json
{
  "result_type": "smartrecruiters-employer-jobs-scraper",
  "input": "https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/Eurofins",
  "status": "success",
  "board": "Eurofins",
  "job_id": "744000027676335",
  "title": "Asbest Inspecteurs",
  "url": "https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Eurofins/744000027676335-asbest-inspecteurs",
  "group_label": "'s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands",
  "employment_type": "Full-time",
  "category_text": null
}
```

Images, tags and other lists stay with their parent result instead of creating extra rows. Invalid or unavailable inputs, inputs with no results, and requests that fail after all retries produce a row with `status: failed`. At most one failed row is saved per input; it includes `error_code` and `error_message` explaining the outcome. A normal end of pagination after collected results does not add a failed row.

### Input requirements and collection settings ⚙️

| Setting | What to enter |
|---|---|
| **Maximum results per search or link** (`maxResults`) | Collect up to this many results for each search or link. Minimum: 1. |
| **Company careers pages** (`companyPages`) | Paste the company careers page on this service. One company per line. |

| Collection mode | Fields to use |
|---|---|
| Employer Jobs | **Company careers pages** |

The result limit applies separately to each search or supplied link. Collection ends earlier when no more matching results are available.

### SmartRecruiters scraping use cases 🎯

#### Company hiring monitoring

Track vacancy titles and links on selected classic SmartRecruiters career boards over repeat runs.

#### Department hiring comparison

Compare the role counts under the group labels published on a board to study a company’s hiring priorities.

#### Employment-type research

Review the employment types listed with vacancies when comparing full-time, temporary or other published arrangements.

#### Recruitment opportunity lists

Export the public role titles and job links from a known employer board for manual recruiting research.

#### Employer board dashboards

Combine separately collected employer boards in a dashboard while preserving each record’s board and grouping context.

### Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰

See the Actor's **Pricing** tab for the active pricing model and current rate. Store settings may change, so this README does not claim a fixed cost.

Under dataset-item pricing:

- Each collected item saved in the dataset is one result.
- Images, tags and other values attached to that item do not create additional rows.
- Automatic retry attempts do not create extra dataset rows.
- A saved `failed` row is also one billable dataset item, including invalid inputs, unavailable items, no results, or exhausted retries. At most one failed row is saved per input, including when some results were already collected.
- `maxResults` caps all saved rows for each input, including its failed row. Repeated copies of the same input are processed once. More inputs or a higher limit can produce more saved results.

### SmartRecruiters scraper API and integrations 🔌

Replace `$ACTOR_ID` with the ID shown in the Actor API tab and `$APIFY_TOKEN` with your token.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/$ACTOR_ID/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode":"smartrecruiters-employer-jobs-scraper","companyPages":["https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/Eurofins"],"maxResults":10}'
```

Use schedules for recurring collection, webhooks for completion notifications, and Apify integrations for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, cloud storage, a CRM or your own application.

### Reliability, retries, and public-data limits ⚠️

Temporary connection errors, timeouts and access restrictions are retried automatically, up to five attempts. Invalid inputs save a failed row without an HTTP request; confirmed unavailable items save a failed row without unnecessary retries. Exhausted retries also save a failed row. Results already collected remain available if a later request fails, and normal pagination completion adds no error row. Collection also stops after two consecutive fully processed pages add no new results, even if the website provides another cursor. Required detail lookups are completed before checking a page; new results reset the counter, and independent reply branches are checked separately. Failures while initializing the Actor, saving data or scheduling requests stop the run instead of being reported as a failed website result.

Supports the classic careers.smartrecruiters.com layout. Custom employer sites and complete vacancy-description extraction are not included.

SmartRecruiters controls which information is publicly available. Removed, private or restricted items may be unavailable, and optional values can be null or empty. A run can still fail if the results cannot be saved.

### Frequently asked questions ❓

#### Does it require an account on SmartRecruiters?

No. You do not need to provide an account, password or login cookies. Only publicly available information is collected.

#### How does maxResults work?

It limits the number of saved results separately for every input. The minimum is 1. With maxResults set to 10, each input returns at most 10 available results.

#### Which career pages are supported?

Classic careers.smartrecruiters.com employer boards. Custom employer websites and different redirected career experiences are outside this Actor’s scope.

#### Are full job descriptions included?

No. This Actor returns board listings with role titles, links, group labels, employment types and category text.

#### Why are some fields empty?

The website may not publish that value, or the field may belong to a different collection mode. Missing values remain null or empty instead of being guessed.

#### Can I export the results to a spreadsheet?

Yes. Download CSV, Excel or JSON from the Apify dataset. All returned fields are included in the same results table.

### Support and responsible use 🛟

For a reproducible issue, share the run ID, selected mode, result limit and a safe public example through the support channel. Never disclose access tokens, passwords or proxy credentials.

Use public SmartRecruiters information lawfully and responsibly. Follow applicable privacy, copyright, data-protection, contractual and platform requirements when storing, analyzing or redistributing results.
