jobs.ams.at Jobs Search Scraper: Extract Austrian Job Listings

---

What Is jobs.ams.at?

jobs.ams.at is the official job portal of the Arbeitsmarktservice (AMS), Austria's public employment service. It aggregates thousands of job listings across Austria, including apprenticeships, part-time roles, seasonal positions, and full-time employment. The portal is widely used by job seekers, employers, and labor market researchers alike.

Manually collecting data from paginated search results is impractical at scale. The jobs.ams.at Jobs Search Scraper automates extraction from any AMS search URL, turning filtered results into clean, structured datasets.

---

Overview

This scraper targets AMS job search result pages, collecting all listed jobs matching your query and filter parameters. It is suited for:

• Labor market researchers analyzing job availability by region, sector, or contract type
• HR teams monitoring demand for specific occupations in Austria
• Developers building Austrian job aggregators or alert tools
• Policy analysts tracking green jobs, apprenticeships, or seasonal employment trends

---

Input Format

The scraper accepts three configuration parameters:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://jobs.ams.at/public/emps/jobs?sortField=_SCORE&sortOrder=desc&query=Ferienjob&page=1&JOB_OFFER_TYPE=SB_WKO&JOB_OFFER_TYPE=IJ"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 20
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
urls	array	(required)	One or more AMS job search result URLs to scrape. Each URL can include search keywords, filters, and pagination parameters. Add multiple URLs for multi-page or multi-query runs.
ignore_url_failures	boolean	true	If true, the scraper continues running when a URL fails instead of stopping the entire run. Recommended for bulk jobs.
max_items_per_url	integer	20	Maximum number of job listings to collect per URL. Increase to 50+ for broader datasets.

Building Your Search URL

Navigate to jobs.ams.at, apply your desired filters (job type, location, keywords), then copy the resulting URL from your browser. The URL encodes all parameters, including:

• query — keyword search (URL-encoded)
• JOB_OFFER_TYPE — listing category (multiple values supported)
• page — pagination index
• sortField / sortOrder — result ordering

Example use case: The prefilled URL searches for seasonal/summer jobs (Ferienjob, Sommerjob, etc.) filtered by offer types SB_WKO, IJ, BA, BZ, and TN, sorted by relevance, starting from page 2.

How to Use

1. Build your search URL — Go to jobs.ams.at, apply filters, and copy the URL from your browser.
2. Paste into urls — Add one or more URLs to the array. For multi-page results, add each page URL separately.
3. Set max_items_per_url — Use 50 for broad searches, lower values for targeted runs.
4. Enable ignore_url_failures — Keep as true for multi-URL runs to avoid interruptions.
5. Run and export — Download results as JSON or CSV for analysis.

Tips:

• AMS search URLs are stable — bookmark commonly used queries for recurring runs.
• Use multiple JOB_OFFER_TYPE values in the URL to capture listings across categories.
• For paginated collection, generate URLs for pages 1–N and add them all to urls.

---

Use Cases & Value

• Seasonal employment research: Track availability of summer/holiday jobs by region
• Apprenticeship monitoring: Filter BA type listings to study vocational training demand
• Green jobs analysis: Use the Is Green Job flag to isolate sustainable employment listings
• Job board integration: Feed AMS data into custom platforms or alerting systems

Automating AMS data collection saves hours of manual browsing and enables consistent, repeatable datasets — critical for longitudinal labor market analysis.
