Myjob.ch Scraper

Extract job listings from myjob.ch, Switzerland's largest national job board, as clean structured JSON. Search by keyword and get job titles, companies, workplaces, workload percentages, cantons and direct links in one run.

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

What this actor does

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

• Job title
• Hiring company
• Workplace / city
• Canton
• Workload range (employment grade, e.g. 80–100%)
• Home office / remote flag
• Short preview of the description (HTML stripped)
• First-publication date
• The job's unique ID and direct URL

myjob.ch is the national instance of a sibling network of Swiss regional job boards (ostjob.ch, jobbasel.ch, jobzueri.ch, zentraljob.ch), so it covers listings across all of Switzerland — currently over 50,000 live jobs.

Why use it

• Job market research — track how many roles match a keyword across all of Switzerland.
• Recruitment and sourcing — build a live feed of open positions for a role or company.
• Workload benchmarking — analyse employment-grade (workload) percentages across employers.
• Aggregators and job boards — feed Swiss listings into your own product.

How to scrape Myjob.ch data

1. Open the actor and set a Search Query (for example informatik, verkauf, pflege or marketing).
2. Set Max Results to how many listings you want.
3. Leave the proxy on the default residential setting and click Start.
4. The actor pages through the myjob.ch search API (10 results per page) until it reaches your Max Results or runs out of listings, then writes everything to the dataset.
5. Export the result as JSON, CSV or Excel directly from the Apify Console, or pull it via the API/SDK into your own pipeline.

Because myjob.ch is the national instance of its sibling network, a broad keyword like informatik alone returns listings from every canton — there is no need to run the actor once per region.

searchQuery	string	Keyword to search for. Default: informatik.

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 myjob.ch search API, so it is not included. The actor returns the workload percentage (employment grade) instead, which is what myjob.ch exposes.
• The API returns at most 10 results per page; the actor pages through automatically.
• Full job descriptions are not fetched separately; the preview field holds the activity text myjob.ch returns in search results, with HTML tags stripped.
• The API does not support server-side location or canton filtering — every listing across Switzerland is searchable by keyword, and the canton output field lets you filter or group after the fact.
• Very deep result sets (thousands of jobs for a broad keyword) take proportionally longer because of the 10-per-page limit.
