Meinestadt.de Jobs Scraper: Extract German Local Job Listings at Scale

---

What Is Meinestadt.de?

Meinestadt.de ("my city") is one of Germany's most popular regional job portals, aggregating thousands of listings across cities, industries, and contract types. Its search interface supports radius-based filtering, job category selection, and minijob toggles — making it a rich source for hyper-local German labor market data.

Manually collecting this data is impractical at scale. The Meinestadt.de Jobs Scraper automates extraction from search result pages, delivering clean, structured records ready for analysis or integration.

Input Format

{
  "urls": [
    "https://jobs.meinestadt.de/augsburg/jk/0-96129?page=2#order=search(stelle%2Cfalse)&jobsSearch=%7B%22radius%22%3A30%2C%22d%22%3Anull%2C%22minijob%22%3Afalse%2C%22filters%22%3A%5B%5D%7D"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 50
}

Field	Type	Description
urls	array	One or more Meinestadt.de job search result page URLs. Supports bulk input. Each URL should be a fully formed search URL including filters and pagination parameters.
ignore_url_failures	boolean	If true, the scraper continues running when a URL fails instead of stopping the entire run. Recommended for bulk jobs. Default: true.
max_items_per_url	integer	Maximum number of job records to collect per URL. Default: 20. Increase to 50+ for larger searches.

Tip: You can encode different search filters (radius, city, category) directly in the URL via Meinestadt.de's search interface, then paste the resulting URL into urls. Each unique search = one URL entry.
