Tips for Best Results

Start with Small Batches

• Use results_wanted between 20 and 50 for first-run validation.
• Confirm field coverage before scaling to larger runs.

Use Focused Search URLs

• Start from a working EURES search page with relevant keywords.
• Narrow geography or job intent to improve data relevance.

Balance Coverage and Speed

• Increase max_pages only when you need broader market coverage.
• Keep page limits bounded for faster, more predictable runs.

Choose the Right Description Field

• Use description_text for NLP, analytics, and keyword clustering.
• Use description_html when formatted content is required downstream.

Proxy Configuration

For reliable collection at scale, residential proxies are recommended:

{
"proxyConfiguration":{
"useApifyProxy":true,
"apifyProxyGroups":["RESIDENTIAL"]
}
}

Frequently Asked Questions

How many vacancies can I collect?

You can collect up to your configured results_wanted limit, constrained by available listings and max_pages.

Why are some fields empty in certain records?

Vacancy details vary by employer and country, so some fields may not be available for every listing.

What is the difference between description_html and description_text?

description_html keeps formatting, while description_text is the plain-text version for analysis.

Can I use my own EURES search page URL?

Yes. Set your target EURES search page in startUrl.

Should I always enable proxies?

For short test runs, proxy may not be necessary. For larger or repeated runs, proxy improves reliability.

Is this suitable for recurring monitoring?

Yes. Run it on a schedule to maintain a fresh dataset for ongoing hiring intelligence.
