Why this scraper?

🎯 Built for Switzerland

A dedicated Swiss scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Search, locations and currency (CHF) are tuned for jobs.ch.

📄 Complete job data

Full job title and description, direct listing URL and publish date for every record.

🏢 Company details

Hiring company name plus the profile details the source publishes, such as logo and company page.

📍 Precise location

City, region and country plus latitude/longitude for mapping and radius analysis.

🔁 Repost & change detection

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

Known limitations

• Salary is not returned. Jobs.ch publishes almost no salary figures in machine-readable form, so the scraper does not promise a field it cannot fill. Use workload and workloadMin/workloadMax for the Pensum percentage.
• industry, applyUrl, directApply and the full description require fetchDetails: true; listing-only runs return them as null.
• Coordinates come from jobs.ch for most listings and are geocoded from the city for the rest.
• 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

• Push notifications: get new results delivered to Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp or any webhook the moment a scheduled run finds them
• Coverage: everything the public search exposes, filterable via the input parameters above
