## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

### What does eJobs Scraper do?

**eJobs Scraper** extracts job listings from [eJobs.ro](https://www.ejobs.ro), Romania's largest and most popular job board with over 100,000 active job postings. The scraper searches for jobs by keyword, location, and category, then returns structured data including job titles, companies, salaries, locations, descriptions, and employment types.

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.

### Why use eJobs Scraper?

- **Market research**: Analyze the Romanian job market by sector, salary ranges, and demand for specific skills across all industries.
- **Recruitment intelligence**: Monitor competitor hiring patterns across Romania's largest talent marketplace.
- **Salary benchmarking**: Collect salary data from thousands of Romanian job postings in RON and EUR.
- **Job aggregation**: Feed Romanian job listings into your own job board, aggregator platform, or HR dashboard.
- **Academic research**: Study employment trends, skill demand, and labor market dynamics in Romania and the EU.
- **Lead generation**: Identify actively hiring companies in Romania for B2B outreach and recruitment services.
- **Talent analytics**: Track which skills are in demand across Romanian cities and industries over time.

4. Optionally set a location (Bucuresti, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, etc.) and job category.
5. Set the maximum number of results you want.
6. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.

### How much does it cost to scrape eJobs.ro?

The eJobs Scraper uses Playwright with residential proxies for reliable data extraction. Typical costs:

- **100 listings** (search results only): ~$0.10-0.20 in platform credits
- **100 listings** (with full details): ~$0.30-0.50 in platform credits
- **1,000 listings** (search results only): ~$0.50-1.00 in platform credits

Costs depend on the number of pages loaded and proxy usage. Disabling `includeDetails` is faster and cheaper when you only need basic listing data.

### Tips and advanced options

- **Use Romanian keywords** for broader results. Many listings are in Romanian only (e.g. "programator" instead of "programmer", "inginer" instead of "engineer", "contabil" instead of "accountant").
- **Enable `includeDetails`** only when you need full job descriptions and requirements. It's 5-10x slower because it visits each job page individually.
- **Set `maxResults`** to control costs. Start small (10-50) to verify the output, then scale up.
- **Location filtering** supports all major Romanian cities: Bucuresti, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, Iasi, Constanta, Brasov, Craiova, Galati, Oradea, Ploiesti, Sibiu, Arad, and 15+ more. Use "Remote" for remote-only jobs.
- **Schedule runs** to track new job listings daily or weekly using Apify's built-in scheduler.
- **Combine with other scrapers** to build a comprehensive Romanian job market dataset. Check our BestJobs and LinkedIn scrapers for additional coverage.
- **Romanian proxy recommended**: Use Romanian residential proxies (`apifyProxyCountry: "RO"`) for the most reliable results and to avoid geo-blocking.

### FAQ and support

#### Is it legal to scrape eJobs.ro?

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 Romanian and EU laws.

#### The scraper returns 0 results

- Make sure your search query matches actual job listings on eJobs.ro. Try common Romanian job titles like "programator", "contabil", "inginer".
- Try broader search terms or remove location/category filters.
- Ensure residential proxies are enabled with Romania as the proxy country.
- 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?

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

## MCP server setup

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
