Arbeitnow Scraper

Collect job listings from arbeitnow.com, a multi-country EU/DACH job board covering Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and beyond. Updated hourly on the source site.

How to use it

Point the scraper at arbeitnow.com's own public API. It fetches the full job feed page by page and applies your search keyword and remote filter client-side (the underlying API has no server-side search, so filtering happens after each page is fetched).

Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
searchQuery	String	No	Keyword to filter by title, company, location, or tags, e.g. "developer", "marketing", "Berlin"
remoteOnly	Boolean	No	Only return remote jobs (default: false)
maxResults	Integer	No	Result limit (default: 100)
proxyConfiguration	Object	No	Proxy settings for better reliability

Leave searchQuery empty to scrape the unfiltered feed.

Output

Field	Type	Example
jobTitle	String	"Senior Backend Developer"
company	String	"Clera"
location	String	"Berlin"
remote	Boolean	false
jobTypes	Array	["Full Time"]
tags	Array	["Engineering"]
jobDescription	String	Plain-text job description
postedAt	String	ISO 8601 timestamp

Cost

No browser overhead — hits the site's own JSON API directly. Cost estimate: roughly $0.0005 per result (about $0.50 per 1,000 jobs) including default Apify proxy usage. Usage cost only settles once a run reports SUCCEEDED — reading the dataset mid-run will undercount cost, so check the final run status before comparing spend.

Things to keep in mind

• Job feed covers Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and other EU markets, mostly German- and English-language postings
• The site's API has no server-side search — this actor fetches the full feed and filters client-side, so a rare keyword may need to scan several pages before hitting maxResults
• Feed is updated hourly on arbeitnow.com's own end

Tips and tricks

• Start small: test with maxResults: 5 before running large scrapes.
