Jobbank.dk Job Search

Search for academic and highly educated positions on Akademikernes Jobbank using playwright-cli.

Prerequisites

Before searching, ensure you have an open browser session:

# Headless (default, supports parallel execution)
playwright-cli -s=jobbank open https://jobbank.dk/job/

# Headed (visible browser, for debugging)
playwright-cli -s=jobbank open https://jobbank.dk/job/ --headed

Named session -s=jobbank allows this skill to run in parallel with other job search skills. Use -s=jobbank on all subsequent commands.

Workflow

Step 1: Dismiss Cookie Consent (Fresh Sessions Only)

On first visit, dismiss the cookie dialog:

playwright-cli -s=jobbank run-code 'async page => {
  try {
    await page.waitForTimeout(1500);
    await page.getByRole("button", { name: "Accepter valgte" }).click({ timeout: 3000 });
    await page.waitForTimeout(1000);
  } catch (e) {
    console.log("No cookie dialog or already dismissed");
  }
}'

Note: Use try/catch because the dialog only appears on first visit.

Step 2: Navigate to Search Results

Most efficient approach: Construct the URL directly with all desired filters and navigate to it.

Example searches:

# Simple keyword search
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=data+scientist"

# With location filter (Copenhagen area)
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=python&amt=2"

# Full-time jobs in IT education area
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=developer&cvtype=3&udd=24"

# Multiple locations (repeat param)
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=engineer&amt=2&amt=8"

# Remote work positions
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=consultant&fjernarbejde=helt"

# Paginated results (page 2)
playwright-cli -s=jobbank goto "https://jobbank.dk/job/?key=project+manager&page=2"

See url-reference.md for complete filter documentation.

Step 3: Extract Job Listings

Use the following JavaScript code to extract all job listings from the current page:

playwright-cli -s=jobbank run-code 'async page => {
  const jobs = await page.evaluate(() => {
    return Array.from(document.querySelectorAll("div.job-item")).map(item => {
      const id = item.getAttribute("name");
      const link = item.querySelector("a[href^=\"/job/\"]");
      const url = link ? "https://jobbank.dk" + link.getAttribute("href") : null;
      const header = item.querySelector(".job-header");
      const teaser = item.querySelector(".job-teaser");
      const desc = item.querySelector(".job-description");
      const dateUpdated = item.querySelector(".job-date-updated");
      const deadline = item.querySelector(".job-date-application");
      return {
        id,
        title: header ? header.textContent.trim() : null,
        teaser: teaser ? teaser.textContent.trim() : null,
        description: desc ? desc.textContent.trim() : null,
        url,
        dateUpdated: dateUpdated ? dateUpdated.textContent.trim() : null,
        deadline: deadline ? deadline.textContent.trim() : null,
      };
    });
  });
  return JSON.stringify(jobs, null, 2);
}'

Expected output: JSON array with ~20 job objects per page, each containing:

• id: Job identifier
• title: Job title
• teaser: Job type, company, and location
• description: Brief job description excerpt
• url: Full URL to job detail page
• dateUpdated: Date job was last updated
• deadline: Application deadline (if available)

Step 4: Present Results to User

Format the extracted jobs into a readable summary for the user. Include:

• Job title (with link)
• Company and location from teaser
• Brief description
• Application deadline (if present)
• Page navigation hints if more results exist

Using Filters

Jobbank.dk supports extensive filtering through URL parameters. The most efficient approach is to construct URLs directly rather than clicking through the UI.

Common filter patterns:

# Job type: Full-time positions only
cvtype=3

# Education area: IT positions
udd=24

# Location: Copenhagen area
amt=2

# Work area: Software development
erf=31

# Industry: IT/Telecom
branche=10331

# Remote work: Fully remote
fjernarbejde=helt

# Suitable for: New graduates
andet=2

# Multiple filters combined
cvtype=3&udd=24&amt=2&erf=31&fjernarbejde=delvist

Multiple values for same filter:

Repeat the parameter name:

# Both Copenhagen and Aarhus
amt=2&amt=8

# Full-time OR graduate/trainee positions
cvtype=3&cvtype=6

See url-reference.md for complete filter ID tables.

Tips

1. Construct URLs directly — Most reliable method. Build the full URL with all desired parameters and navigate to it in one command.

2. Pagination — Jobbank shows ~20 results per page. Use &page=2, &page=3, etc. to browse multiple pages. Page numbers are 1-indexed.

3. RSS feeds — Every search has an RSS equivalent: https://jobbank.dk/job/rss?{same_query_params}. Useful for monitoring new jobs.

4. Cookie consent — Must be dismissed once per session. Look for "Accepter valgte" button on first page load.

5. Keyword spacing — Use + or %20 for spaces in keywords: data+scientist or data%20scientist.

6. Exclude keywords — Use antikey parameter to exclude terms: ?key=developer&antikey=senior.

7. Date filtering — Use oprettet=YYYY-MM-DD to find jobs posted since a specific date.

8. Company filtering — Use virk={company_name} to search within specific companies.

Known Issues and Workarounds

Filter Dropdown Overlap

Problem: When using the advanced filter UI (not recommended), dropdown menus can overlap and block interactions.

Workaround:

• Use { force: true } option in clicks: .click({ force: true })
• Or close previous dropdown before opening next one
• Or (better) construct URLs directly and skip the UI entirely

Filter Checkboxes Don't Update URL

Problem: Clicking filter checkboxes in the UI doesn't immediately update the browser URL, making it hard to track selected filters.

Workaround:

• Always click the search button after selecting filters
• Or (recommended) construct URLs directly with desired parameters

Cookie Dialog Blocks Interaction

Problem: On fresh sessions, the cookie consent dialog blocks all page interactions.

Workaround: Always dismiss the cookie dialog first by clicking "Accepter valgte" before attempting any other actions.
