APEC Jobs Scraper

What does APEC Jobs Scraper do?

APEC Jobs Scraper extracts job listings from APEC.fr, the reference job board for French executive, manager, and specialist roles. Enter a keyword and a city, or paste a prepared APEC search URL, and the actor collects structured job records with titles, companies, locations, salaries, publication dates, and application links. Extraction runs directly from the search results, so each run is fast and does not open individual job pages. Output is saved to an Apify dataset you can export as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, making it ready for hiring research, market analysis, monitoring, and AI workflows.

Why use APEC Jobs Scraper?

• Fast listing extraction - Collect structured French executive job data directly from search results without opening each job page, so runs complete in seconds.
• Flexible search inputs - Search by keyword, filter by city or region, or reuse an APEC search URL with your prepared filters.
• Rich data per listing - Each record includes the published title, company, location, salary, publication dates, and job description snippet available from the search results.
• Automation-ready output - Download results as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or connect them to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, or your own systems.
• Duplicate-free results - Offers are deduplicated by APEC reference so repeated listings never create repeated records.

Tips for Best Results

• Use specific keywords - Search terms such as data engineer, responsable marketing, or chef de projet return cleaner, more relevant datasets than single broad words.
• Add a location for regional data - Combining keyword and location narrows results to the area you care about, such as Paris or Lyon.
• Start small, then scale - Keep results_wanted at 20 for a test run, then raise it once your query pattern is validated.
• Raise max_pages for larger pulls - The actor stops early when it reaches results_wanted, so a higher page cap only matters when you collect many jobs.
• Understand missing fields - Not every employer publishes every field. The actor saves the data available from search results and removes empty values to keep the dataset clean.
• Keep recurring runs comparable - Use the same keyword and location for scheduled reports so results stay consistent over time.
• Enable proxy for large scheduled runs - The default setting works for standard runs. If you collect at scale or face access limits, enable proxy settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does APEC Jobs Scraper collect full job descriptions?

Yes. Set the location input to a city or region such as Paris or Lyon, and the actor applies it to the search.
