Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Encountering issues with your queries?
A: Try reducing the number of results_wanted and/or broadening the filters. If problems persist, submit an issue.

Q: Received a response code 429?
A: This indicates that you have been blocked by the job board site for sending too many requests. Currently, LinkedIn is particularly aggressive with blocking. We recommend:

  • Waiting a few seconds between requests.
  • Trying a VPN or proxy to change your IP address.
