Why this scraper?

🎯 Built for Czechia

A dedicated Czech scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Search, locations and currency (CZK) are tuned for Prace.cz.

📄 Complete job data

Full job title and description in HTML, plain text and Markdown, the direct listing URL, the publish date and the expiry date for every record.

💶 Structured salary

Minimum, maximum, pay period and currency, parsed from the employer's own structured data in CZK. Jobs without a published salary are returned as null, never guessed.

🏢 Company

The hiring company name for every listing.

📍 Precise location

City, postal code, street and country, plus latitude and longitude, so listings drop straight onto a map or into a geo filter.

🔁 Repost & change detection

Every record carries isRepost and changeStatus, so daily feeds return genuinely new or updated jobs instead of reposted duplicates.

Known limitations

• Salary is only present when the employer publishes it; roughly 40% of listings show no salary and return null.
• City, postal code, street, coordinates, description and expiry date require fetchDetails: true.
• Coordinates are derived from the city name, so they are city-level rather than exact address points.
• Contact-person details are deliberately never collected.

---

Technical details

• Source: prace.cz — Czech job listings
• Coverage: nationwide, filterable by keyword, location and employment type
• Repost storage: KeyValueStore prace-cz-job-dedup, 90-day TTL
• Retry: automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff
