Known limitations

• Salary is only returned when the employer publishes it — many listings carry null salary fields.
• Company details vary per listing; the scraper returns what the source publishes and never invents data.
• Very large result sets are bounded by the source's own paging limits.
• Listings can be removed by the source at any time, so a small share of URLs may expire shortly after scraping.

Technical details

• Source: arbeitsagentur.de — Germany job listings
• Coverage: everything the public search exposes, filterable via the input parameters above
• Retry: automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff
