Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. Actors are written with capital "A". ## 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. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

BestJobs.eu is one of Eastern Europe's prominent job platforms, connecting employers with candidates across a wide range of industries. Its search pages aggregate listings by keyword, category, and location — making it a valuable source for labor market intelligence. Manually collecting this data is impractical at scale; the **BestJobs.eu Jobs Search Scraper** automates extraction from any search results page. --- ### Overview The **BestJobs Jobs Scraper** targets search result pages and extracts structured records for every listing returned. It is suited for: - **Recruiters** monitoring job market activity by category or region - **HR analysts** benchmarking salaries and application trends - **Developers** feeding data into aggregator platforms or dashboards - **Researchers** studying hiring patterns in Eastern European markets The scraper supports bulk URL input, configurable item limits, and fault-tolerant runs via `ignore_url_failures`. --- ### Input Format The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with the following fields: ```json { "urls": [ "https://www.bestjobs.eu/en/jobs/audit?_lat=20.654682&_lon=106.057849" ], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_items_per_url": 50 } ```` | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `urls` | `array` | — | One or more BestJobs.eu search result page URLs. Can be added one by one or via bulk edit. | | `ignore_url_failures` | `boolean` | `true` | If `true`, the scraper continues running even if some URLs fail, rather than stopping the entire run. | | `max_items_per_url` | `integer` | `20` | Maximum number of job listings to collect per URL. Increase for deeper result sets. | > **Tip:** Build search URLs directly on BestJobs.eu using filters (keyword, location, category), then paste the resulting URL. The `_lat` / `_lon` parameters in the URL enable location-based filtering. *** ### Output Format **Sample output** ```json { "id": "52016584", "workplace_job": false, "has_description": true, "slug": "inginer-cfdp-70", "title": "Inginer CFDP", "rating": 4.4, "locations": [ { "name": "Remote", "slug": "remote", "with_full_address": false } ], "company_name": "TALENT STREAM", "company_logo": "5d0b4fe080f6c.JPG", "salary": "1800 - 2200", "estimated_salary": "", "applications": 175, "applied_at": "", "application_viewed_at": "", "show_application_info": false, "liked": false, "disliked": false, "responsive": false, "premium": true, "highlighted": false, "application_type": 1, "auto_apply": false, "accepts_message": false, "active": true, "own_apply_url": "", "has_own_apply_url": false, "unanswered_questions": [], "unanswered_job_interview_questions": [], "state": "active", "from_url": "https://www.bestjobs.eu/en/jobs/audit?_lat=20.654682&_lon=106.057849" } ``` Each scraped listing returns up to 29 fields: #### Identification & Listing Metadata | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `ID` | Unique internal BestJobs identifier for the job listing | | `Slug` | URL-friendly version of the job title used in the listing's permalink | | `Title` | Job title as displayed in search results | | `State` | Current state of the listing (e.g., active, expired, paused) | | `Active` | Boolean flag indicating whether the listing is currently live | | `Has Description` | Whether a full description is available for the listing | | `Workplace Job` | Indicates whether the role is on-site, remote, or hybrid | #### Company & Location | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `Company Name` | Name of the hiring company | | `Company Logo` | URL to the company's logo image | | `Locations` | Geographic location(s) associated with the listing | #### Compensation | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `Salary` | Salary range or amount as stated by the employer | | `Estimated Salary` | Platform-estimated salary when the employer does not disclose one | #### Application & Engagement | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `Applications` | Number of applications received for the listing | | `Applied At` | Timestamp of when the authenticated user applied (if applicable) | | `Application Viewed At` | When the employer viewed the user's application | | `Show Application Info` | Whether application statistics are visible to the candidate | | `Application Type` | Method of application (e.g., platform-native, external redirect) | | `Auto Apply` | Whether one-click / auto-apply is enabled for this listing | | `Own Apply URL` | Custom application URL provided by the employer | | `Has Own Apply URL` | Boolean flag indicating if a custom apply URL exists | | `Accepts Message` | Whether candidates can send a message along with their application | | `Unanswered Questions` | Number of screening questions that have not been answered | | `Unanswered Job Interview Questions` | Pending interview questions from the employer | #### Listing Quality & Visibility | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `Rating` | Listing or company rating score | | `Premium` | Whether the listing has paid premium placement | | `Highlighted` | Whether the listing is visually highlighted in search results | | `Responsive` | Whether the employer is flagged as responsive to applicants | #### User Interaction Flags | Field | Meaning | |---|---| | `Liked` | Whether the authenticated user has liked/saved the listing | | `Disliked` | Whether the authenticated user has dismissed the listing | *** ### How to Use 1. **Build your search URL** — Search on BestJobs.eu using keywords and location filters. Copy the URL from the browser (e.g., `https://www.bestjobs.eu/en/jobs/audit?_lat=...`). 2. **Configure input** — Add URLs to the `urls` array. Set `max_items_per_url` based on how many results you need. 3. **Run the scraper** — Start the actor and monitor progress in the run log. 4. **Export results** — Download as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis or integration. **Common issues:** - Ensure URLs point to **search result pages**, not individual job detail pages. - For large result sets, increase `max_items_per_url` up to the number of results shown on the page. - Enable `ignore_url_failures: true` for multi-URL runs to prevent a single bad URL from stopping the job. *** ### Use Cases & Business Value - **Salary benchmarking:** Aggregate `Salary` and `Estimated Salary` fields across categories to build compensation reports - **Market research:** Track `Applications` counts and `Responsive` flags to gauge employer engagement patterns - **Job aggregation:** Pipe structured listings into custom job boards or internal HR tools - **Competitive intelligence:** Monitor premium and highlighted listings to understand competitor hiring activity *** ### Conclusion The **BestJobs.eu Jobs Search Scraper** turns any search results page into a clean, structured dataset with 29+ fields per listing. Whether you're benchmarking salaries, building a job aggregator, or analyzing regional hiring trends, it delivers consistent, machine-readable data without manual effort. # Actor input Schema ## `urls` (type: `array`): Add the URLs of the Jobs list urls you want to scrape.
