## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

### What does Jobs.cz Scraper do?

**Jobs.cz Scraper** extracts job listings from [Jobs.cz](https://www.jobs.cz), the Czech Republic's leading job board operated by Alma Career (formerly LMC). The scraper searches for jobs by keyword, location, and category, then returns structured data including job titles, companies, salaries in CZK, locations, employment types, response times, and descriptions.

Run it on the Apify platform to get **API access, scheduling, proxy rotation, webhook integrations, and monitoring** out of the box. No login or cookies required -- all data is extracted from publicly available job listings.

### Why use Jobs.cz Scraper?

- **Recruitment intelligence**: Monitor competitor hiring patterns and track new openings in your industry.
- **Salary benchmarking**: Collect salary data from thousands of Czech job postings to understand market rates in CZK.
- **Job aggregation**: Feed Czech job listings into your own job board, aggregator, or HR platform.
- **Academic research**: Study employment trends, skill demand, and labor market dynamics in Czechia.
- **Lead generation**: Identify actively hiring Czech companies for B2B sales outreach.
- **Talent market analysis**: Understand which cities and sectors have the highest demand for specific roles.

### How much does it cost to scrape Jobs.cz?

The Jobs.cz Scraper reads the server-rendered search pages and the employer career-site API over plain HTTP — no browser — so runs are fast and cheap. Typical costs:

- **50 listings** (with full details): ~$0.02-0.05 in platform credits
- **100 listings** (with full details): ~$0.05-0.10 in platform credits
- **1,000 listings** (with full details): ~$0.30-0.80 in platform credits

Costs depend on the number of pages loaded and proxy usage. Disabling `includeDetails` is even faster and cheaper when you only need basic listing data.

### Tips and advanced options

- **Use Czech keywords** for broader results. Most listings are in Czech (e.g. "programator" instead of "programmer", "ucetni" instead of "accountant").
- **Keep `includeDetails` on** for full job descriptions, benefits, exact salary bounds, and category tags. Turn it off when you only need the listing basics and want the fastest possible run.
- **Set `maxResults`** to control costs. Start small (10-50) to verify the output, then scale up.
- **Location filtering** supports all major Czech cities: Praha, Brno, Ostrava, Plzen, Liberec, Olomouc, Ceske Budejovice, Hradec Kralove, Pardubice, Zlin, and more.
- **Schedule runs** to track new listings daily or weekly using Apify's built-in scheduler.
- **Combine with other scrapers** to build a comprehensive Czech job market dataset. Check our Profesia.cz, Prace.cz, and other EU job board scrapers.

### Supported locations

City or region name (e.g. 'Praha', 'Brno', 'Ostrava', 'Plzen'). Leave empty for all of the Czech Republic.
