Profession.hu Scraper: Hungarian jobs with gross or net pay

Scrape Profession.hu, a Hungarian job board, by keyword or by pasted search URL: title, the employer shown on the page with its Profession.hu page and logo, place, town and postal code, hybrid or remote, posted pay in HUF or EUR with its period and whether it is gross or net, hours and contract, experience, languages and education asked, technology tags, benefits, equipment, dates and the full description. Export to CSV, Excel or JSON, or use the API.

USD 0.79 per 1,000 jobs. No login, no browser.

What you get

• Gross or net pay with the right currency. "Br. 900e Ft havi bér" becomes 900,000 HUF per MONTH, gross ("Br." is bruttó, "900e" is 900 thousand); "Nettó 2 500 - 3 000 Euro havi bér" becomes 2,500 to 3,000 EUR per MONTH, net. The basis is in extra.salaryBasis. The currency comes from the pay text, because the list card's own currency tag says HUF even for jobs paid in euros. How many jobs show a pay depends on the field: none of 20 Java developer ads in our test, 7 of 8 student jobs.
• The employer and place as the page shows them. The page's structured data can name another firm (one ad named a different company than the visible one), lists every county for a nationwide ad and marks hybrid jobs as remote, so employer, place and work mode are read from the visible job block. Hybrid is kept apart from remote, and nationwide ads get extra.nationwide.
• Fields from the job page: town and postal code from a written address (8 of 20 Java ads had a postal code), technology tags as skills (17 of 20), benefits, equipment, the experience, language and education line, the country of a job abroad (a job in Germany gets DE).

Good to know

• No apply link. Profession.hu's apply path is closed to robots (robots.txt), so applyUrl stays empty; use jobUrl.
• Keywords, a search URL or everything. With no keyword the Actor reads the whole all-jobs list in the site's own order (not by date), up to your job limit. For a town, county or other filter, set it on profession.hu and paste the search URL (with its page number, like /allasok/1,0,0,java-fejleszto).
• Results come in Profession.hu's own order (featured and relevance), not by date.
• List-only mode is thinner: no dates (so "Posted within" cannot drop jobs), no description, and a foreign town without a country name on the card is labelled HU. With job pages on (the default), the country comes from the job page.
• The row repeats the pay as the page states it: some student-job ads print an hourly-looking amount as "havi bér" (monthly), and the row says MONTH.
• 20 jobs a page. 1,000 jobs with job pages take about 53 minutes (3.2 s a job in our platform test). A list-only run reads one page per 20 jobs.
• Not given: company size, an end date in list-only mode.

Who uses it

• Recruiters and staffing agencies in Hungary: new jobs by keyword every day, with experience, languages and education asked.
• Pay research: posted pay in HUF and EUR, gross and net kept apart, including jobs abroad offered to Hungarians.

Output: one row per job

Every Actor in this family writes the same columns, so you can merge boards in one sheet or database.

title, company	Job title and hiring company (as the board shows them)
companyUrl, companyLogoUrl	Company page and logo on the board, when given
location, city, region, postalCode, country	Location as shown, and its parts; country is an ISO code (FR, DE, US...)
remote, workplaceType	true/false and remote, hybrid or onsite, only when the board says so
salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, salaryPeriod, salaryText	Salary range as numbers, ISO currency, HOUR/DAY/WEEK/MONTH/YEAR; empty when the board gives none (never guessed)

extra	A few fields only this board has

Contact email addresses and phone numbers inside descriptions are removed: this Actor never collects recruiters' personal contact details.

Job alerts: only new jobs, sent where you work

1. Switch on Only new jobs since the last run and schedule the Actor (daily, hourly). It remembers the jobs it has already delivered for the same searches and filters, in a key-value store on your own account (named job-boards-seen-
2. Paste a Slack or Discord webhook (or a Zapier or Make webhook, which can email you) into Send new jobs to. After each run that found new jobs you get one message with the count and up to 10 jobs with their links. Free: the message is never billed.

Apify's own integrations (Google Sheets, email, webhooks) work too.

Pricing

Pay per job saved: USD 0.79 per 1,000 jobs (USD 0.00079 a job), plus USD 0.002 per run start. No monthly rental, no charge for jobs skipped as duplicates, already seen or filtered out. Set a maximum cost per run in Apify and the Actor stops just before it, keeping everything saved so far.

Use it through the API

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/usefulapi~profession-hu-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"keywords":["java fejlesztő"],"maxJobs":20}'

Python: ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN").actor("usefulapi/profession-hu-scraper").call(run_input={...}), then read the dataset items.

Good to know

• Polite by design: one request at a time per site with a pause between requests, and the site's robots.txt is followed. Runs read public job pages only: no login, no candidate profiles or CVs.
• What a run summary tells you: the OUTPUT record has jobs saved per search, jobs skipped (duplicates, seen before, too old) and why a run stopped early, if it did.
• Is it legal? The Actor reads job ads that the board publishes openly, the same pages a job seeker sees. You are responsible for how you use the data (for example, the board's terms and data protection rules in your country).
• Found a problem? Open an issue on the Issues tab: we answer quickly.
