Prace.cz Scraper - Czech Republic Job Listings

What does Prace.cz Scraper do?

Prace.cz Scraper extracts job listings from Prace.cz, one of the Czech Republic's leading job boards (part of the Alma Career group, alongside Jobs.cz). It is a separate product from Jobs.cz with its own search index and listing pages — this actor targets Prace.cz specifically. The scraper searches for jobs by keyword and location, then returns structured data including job titles, companies, salaries in CZK, locations, employment types, work-area categories, and full 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.

How much does it cost to scrape Prace.cz?

The Prace.cz Scraper reads server-rendered search pages and native detail pages 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 (title, company, salary, location, category).

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, exact addresses, and confirmed salary figures. 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 Jobs.cz, Jobs.ch, and other EU job board scrapers.

FAQ and support

Is it legal to scrape Prace.cz?

This scraper extracts only publicly available job listing data that any visitor can see without logging in. It does not access private data, bypass authentication, or violate GDPR. Always review the website's Terms of Service before large-scale scraping and ensure your use case complies with applicable laws.

The scraper returns 0 results

• Make sure your search query matches actual job listings on Prace.cz.
• Try broader search terms or remove location filters.
• Ensure residential proxies are enabled (the default proxy configuration).
• The site may temporarily block automated access — try again after a few minutes.

Can I get custom modifications?

Yes. If you need additional fields, different output formats, or integration with your systems, open an issue in the Issues tab or contact us for a custom solution.

How often should I run this scraper?

Prace.cz updates listings continuously. For most use cases, running once daily or weekly is sufficient. Use Apify's scheduler to automate recurring runs.

How is this different from a Jobs.cz scraper?

Prace.cz and Jobs.cz are both operated by Alma Career but run separate search products with separate listing pools and separate URLs (prace.cz/nabidka/... vs jobs.cz/rpd/...). Some employers post to only one of the two, so combining both scrapers gives broader Czech job market coverage than either alone.
