Jobzueri.ch Scraper

Extract job listings from jobzueri.ch, the Zurich region job board, as clean structured JSON. Search by keyword and get job titles, companies, workplaces, workload percentages, home-office flags, cantons, publication dates and direct links in one run.

No login. No cookies. No browser automation. The actor talks to the same public JSON API the jobzueri.ch website uses, so it is fast and stable.

What this actor does

Given a search keyword (and optionally a location filter), this actor collects matching job listings from jobzueri.ch and returns one row per job with:

• Job title
• Hiring company
• Workplace / city
• Workload range (employment grade, e.g. 80–100%)
• Home office availability
• Canton
• Job description preview
• Publication date
• The job's unique ID and direct URL

jobzueri.ch covers the greater Zurich labour market and currently lists over 12,000 live vacancies, spanning trades, office roles, healthcare, IT, hospitality and apprenticeships.

Why use it

• Job market research — track how many roles match a keyword across the Zurich region.
• Recruitment and sourcing — build a live feed of open positions for a role or company.
• Workload and remote-work benchmarking — analyse employment-grade percentages and home-office availability across employers.
• Aggregators and job boards — feed Zurich-region listings into your own product.

How to scrape Jobzueri.ch data

1. Open the actor and set a Search Query (for example informatik, treuhand, pflege or marketing). jobzueri.ch is German-language, so German keywords work best.
2. Optionally set a Location such as Zürich or Winterthur to keep only listings whose workplace city or canton matches. Leave it empty to search the full Zurich-region catalogue.
3. Set Max Results to how many listings you want.
4. Leave the proxy on the default setting and click Start.

The actor pages through the jobzueri.ch search API (10 results 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	Keyword to search for. German keywords work best. Default: informatik.
location	string	City or canton filter (e.g. Zürich, Winterthur). Empty = no location filter.

proxyConfiguration	object	Apify proxy settings. Default: residential.

Cost estimate

This actor uses a lightweight JSON API and no browser, so runs are cheap and fast. One request returns 10 listings, so a few hundred jobs cost only a handful of requests plus proxy traffic. Exact cost depends on your Apify plan and proxy usage.

Limitations

• Salary is not published in the jobzueri.ch search API, so it is not included. The actor returns the workload percentage (employment grade) instead, which is what jobzueri.ch exposes.
• The API returns at most 10 results per page; the actor pages through automatically.
• Full job descriptions are returned as rich HTML from the source; the actor strips tags but does not fetch anything beyond what the search API already provides.
• The Location filter is applied client-side (the underlying API does not support server-side location filtering on this instance), so a narrow location combined with a broad keyword can take longer to fill Max Results.
