HelloWork Jobs Scraper

HelloWork Jobs Scraper: French job postings with contract type and real salaries

HelloWork is one of France's big generalist job boards. Search by keyword and city, filter by contract type, remote band, experience or salary, and get rows back: title, company, city and department, CDI or CDD or intérim or stage or alternance, the salary, the posted date and the link.

The salary field needs a warning before anything else. When an employer publishes no figure, HelloWork fills the gap with its own estimate. Both arrive in the same place, so every row carries salaryIsEstimate and you should read it before you treat a number as an offer.

🔍 What HelloWork Jobs Scraper does

Each keyword you give it is walked as its own search, so ["développeur", "data analyst"] runs two. French terms work best, and English job titles match plenty of postings too. Add a city, department or region and a radius in kilometres to keep it local.

Every filter HelloWork's own sidebar has is here: contract type, télétravail band, working time, experience, who is hiring, posted-within window and a minimum salary. Broad searches repeat rows across pages, and duplicates are removed before anything counts toward your maximum, so maxItems means distinct postings.

By default each posting's own page is opened, which is where the exact posted date, the expiry date, the postal code and region, the sector, the skills list and the education level come from. Turn that off for a faster listing-only run and you keep title, company, location, contract, salary and an approximate posted date.

📤 What you get back

A real row. Note salaryIsEstimate, because this one is HelloWork's estimate rather than the employer's figure:

The skills list is cut short; the real row carries sixteen.

🧾 Reading the output

▶️ How to run it

1. Open HelloWork Jobs Scraper and click Try for free. 2. Put your terms into Job keywords, one per line. 3. Add a Location and a radius if you want it local. 4. Set Maximum postings, then click Start. 5. Download the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it from the Apify API.

💰 How much does it cost?

$0.49 per 1,000 postings. Flat on every Apify plan, no volume tiers.

You pay per posting row. Duplicates across pages are dropped before they count, the sample row is not charged, and diagnostic rows are not charged. Adding the full description does not add a second charge, it only makes the rows bigger. A posting whose own page could not be read still arrives as a row, carries detailNote, and counts as a posting.

💡 What people use it for

• Salary research that survives scrutiny, by keeping only salaryIsEstimate === false so the numbers

are the ones employers actually printed.

• Watching one city and one contract type daily, with postedWithin set to day, and deduping on

jobId.

• Mapping demand by department, since every row carries departmentCode and most carry a postal

code.

• Pulling the skills arrays for a role across a few hundred postings to see which tools keep

appearing.

• Telling employers apart from agencies with employerType, which changes what a listing count

actually means.

🚧 What it does not do

• France only. That is HelloWork's own coverage.
• The salary can be an estimate. HelloWork produces one when the employer published nothing, and

it lands in the same fields. salaryIsEstimate is the only thing that tells you apart, so read it.

• minSalary filters estimates too. HelloWork applies its own filter to its own estimate, so a

high minimum still returns postings with no published figure. Combine it with Only postings that show a salary.

• The remote band is usually empty. Only about 18% of postings carry one, so filtering on it cuts

results hard and drops postings that are remote but untagged.

• No applications, no candidate data, no recruiter contact details. Postings only.
• A single search runs out before the cap. Going wide means several keywords, cities or filters,

not a bigger maxItems.

• Postings expire. expiresAt tells you when, and a pasted link to a dead posting returns

JOB_NOT_FOUND.

• Listing-only runs have no exact posted date. Turn postings on if you need postedAt rather

than postedAtEstimated.

🧭 Which job board scraper do you need?

❓ Questions people ask

Do I need a HelloWork account? No. Everything here is on public posting pages.

How do I get only real salaries? Switch on Only postings that show a salary, then keep rows where salaryIsEstimate is false. The first narrows what HelloWork sends, the second catches the estimates that still come through.

Should I search in French or English? French matches more. English job titles work for the technical roles that are advertised that way.

Can I paste a single posting? Yes, into HelloWork URLs. A search page URL works there too.

Why is postedAt empty? You ran with postings closed. The exact date lives on the posting page.

Can I schedule it? Yes. jobId is stable, so a daily run with postedWithin set to day gives you just what is new.

Is this legal? These are public job adverts, and they can carry personal data, which GDPR covers, so have a reason for collecting it. Apify's write-up on scraping and the law is a good starting point, and we are not lawyers.

🆘 If something breaks

Open the Issues tab on the actor page. Send the keyword, the location and the run ID. If you got a diagnostic row, its errorCode usually names the problem on its own.
