Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

Leave empty for all Austria | | `employmentType` | String | No | Filter: "vollzeit" (full-time) or "teilzeit" (part-time) | | `maxResults` | Integer | No | Maximum job listings to scrape (default: 50) | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Proxy settings (Austrian residential proxies recommended) | ### Output Each result contains the following fields: | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `jobTitle` | String | `"Senior Software Entwickler - Python/Odoo (w/m/x)"` | | `company` | String | `"epunkt GmbH"` | | `location` | String | `"Graz, Wien"` | | `salary` | String | `"ab 4.000 EUR monatlich"` | | `employmentType` | String | `"Vollzeit"` | | `contractType` | String | `"Berufserfahrung"` | | `postedDate` | String | `"vor 6 Tagen veröffentlicht"` | | `jobDescription` | String | Full job description including requirements and benefits | | `companyUrl` | String | `"https://www.karriere.at/f/epunkt"` | | `url` | String | Direct link to the job listing | | `scrapedAt` | String | `"2026-06-09T14:30:00.000Z"` | ### Example output ```json { "jobTitle": "Senior Software Entwickler - Python/Odoo (w/m/x)", "company": "epunkt GmbH", "location": "Graz, Wien", "salary": "ab 4.000 EUR monatlich", "employmentType": "Vollzeit", "contractType": "Berufserfahrung", "postedDate": "vor 6 Tagen veröffentlicht", "jobDescription": "Deine zukuenftige Rolle\nEntwicklung und Anpassung von Odoo-Modulen...", "companyUrl": "https://www.karriere.at/f/epunkt", "url": "https://www.karriere.at/jobs/7803497", "scrapedAt": "2026-06-09T14:30:00.000Z" } ```` ### Cost estimate This actor uses Playwright (headless browser) to render karriere.at's JavaScript-driven pages. Approximate costs: - **50 jobs**: ~0.05 compute units (~$0.02) - **500 jobs**: ~0.5 compute units (~$0.25) - **1,000 jobs**: ~1.0 compute units (~$0.50) Costs may vary depending on proxy usage and page load times. Austrian residential proxies are recommended for reliable results. ### Tips - **Start small**: Test with 10-20 results first to verify the output matches your needs. - **Use location filters**: Narrowing by city significantly reduces run time and costs. - **Schedule regular runs**: Set up daily or weekly runs to track new job postings automatically. - **Combine with other actors**: Use karriere.at data alongside other Austrian job portals (StepStone, willhaben Jobs) for comprehensive market coverage. - **Empty search works**: If you leave the search query empty, it defaults to "software engineer" to ensure you always get results. ### Limitations - Salary information is only available when employers choose to publish it (roughly 60-70% of listings). - Posted dates are shown as relative timestamps ("vor 6 Tagen") rather than absolute dates. - The actor respects karriere.at's page structure; if the site redesigns, selectors may need updating. - Very large runs (1,000+ results) may take longer due to the "load more" pagination pattern. ### FAQ **Is it legal to scrape Karriere.at?** This actor extracts publicly available job listing data. Always review karriere.at's Terms of Service and ensure your use case complies with applicable laws including GDPR. **How often is the data updated?** Each run fetches live data from karriere.at. Schedule runs daily or weekly for fresh data. **Can I get job listings in English?** Karriere.at is a German-language platform. Job titles and descriptions are in German, though some international companies post in English. **What if the actor returns no results?** Try broadening your search query or removing the location filter. Ensure you are using Austrian residential proxies for best results. ### Support If you encounter issues or have feature requests, please open an issue in the [Issues tab](https://console.apify.com/actors/studio-amba~karriere-at-scraper/issues).
