Cost math

Priced at $0.0030 per result. 10 results ≈ $0.03, 100 ≈ $0.30, 1,000 ≈ $3.00. The first runs land inside Apify's $5/mo free-tier credit — pay only for what you extract, no monthly subscription.

Who should use this

Western Austrian staffing agencies and HR teams use this actor to monitor Westjob.at, the dominant regional board for Vorarlberg, Tirol, and Salzburg, without manual browsing. The API-based approach and deduplication across multi-keyword runs makes it suitable for daily monitoring pipelines.

Recruitment researchers covering the border region between Austria and Switzerland use the workload (Pensum) filter to find part-time and flexible roles that are common in cross-border employment arrangements.

HR company filters (companyFilter: exclude-hr) are especially useful for direct-employer-only prospecting without recruitment agency noise polluting the results.
