Burzarada HZZ Scraper

Extract job listings from burzarada.hzz.hr, Croatia's national public employment service portal, run by HZZ (Hrvatski zavod za zapošljavanje). The portal is the country's official vacancy register — every employer registering an opening with the employment service, plus direct employer postings, ends up here.

No login. No cookies session that expires mid-run. No browser automation. The actor reads the same server-rendered listing and detail pages a visitor's browser would.

What this actor does

Given a search keyword, this actor collects every matching job listing from burzarada.hzz.hr and returns one row per listing with:

• Job title
• Hiring employer
• Workplace location (municipality)
• Number of open positions
• Application deadline
• The listing's unique ID and direct URL
• Optionally (with fetchFullDescription): employment type, working hours, education level, driving licence requirement, work experience, full description and contact info

Why use it

• National labour market research — track vacancy volume, employer activity and role demand across Croatia.
• Recruitment intelligence — see which employers are actively hiring and where, before it shows up on aggregator job boards.
• Public-sector data journalism — this is the same register HZZ itself publishes, structured for analysis.
• Aggregators and job boards — feed Croatian public-sector-registered vacancies into your own product alongside private job boards.

How to scrape Burzarada Rada HZZ job data

1. Open the actor and set a Search Query — a Croatian job title or profession keyword (for example kuhar, konobar, vozač, prodavač, njegovatelj). Leave it empty to pull all current listings nationwide.
2. Set Max Results to how many listings you want.
3. Turn on Fetch Full Description if you want employment type, working hours, education level, driving licence, work experience, a free-text description and contact details for each listing — this costs one extra request per job.
4. Leave the proxy on the default automatic setting and click Start.

The actor pages through the listings (up to 75 per page) until it reaches your Max Results or runs out of listings, then writes everything to the dataset. You can export the result as JSON, CSV or Excel.

Input

Field	Type	Description
searchQuery	string	Job title / profession to search for. Croatian keywords work best. Default: kuhar. Leave empty for all current listings.
maxResults	integer	Maximum number of listings to return. Default: 100.
fetchFullDescription	boolean	Fetch each listing's detail page for employment type, working hours, education, driving licence, experience, description and contact. Default: false.
proxyConfiguration	object	Apify proxy settings. Default: automatic (no anti-bot on this site).

Cost estimate

This actor parses lightweight server-rendered HTML and no browser, so runs are cheap and fast. One request returns up to 75 listings without fetchFullDescription, or one extra request per listing with it enabled. Exact cost depends on your Apify plan and proxy usage. Usage is only charged after a run finishes with status SUCCEEDED — a failed or aborted run doesn't bill for partial results.

Limitations

• Salary is not published on this portal. HZZ listings don't carry a structured or free-text salary field — this is a data-source limitation, not a scraping gap.
• Dates are published in Croatian d.M.yyyy. format (e.g. 20.9.2026.), not converted to ISO 8601, matching how HZZ itself presents them.
• Location is a free-text municipality name, not split into structured city/region/postal-code fields, matching the source.
• employmentType, workingHours, educationLevel, drivingLicence, workExperience, description, contact and validFrom are only populated when fetchFullDescription is enabled — the default fast mode returns only the list-page fields.
• Some detail fields (driving licence, accommodation, work experience) are legitimately conditional on the job and left empty by the employer for many listings.
