Arbeitsamt vs HeroHunt People Search
The Bundesagentur für Arbeit's Jobsuche API is Germany's official public job-search service, covering listings, employer details, and application document references. Every request needs the fixed public clientId sent as an X-API-Key header rather than a per-user OAuth token, and returns JSON.
HeroHunt's People Search API lets a caller describe an ideal candidate in natural language and returns matching, enrichable profiles sourced from LinkedIn, GitHub, and Stack Overflow, the same engine behind its dashboard, SDKs, and hosted MCP server. Every call authenticates with an x-api-key header; a free trial grants 50 search credits before paid Starter/Pro plans.
