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, ZipRecruiter is particularly aggressive with blocking. We recommend:

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

Note: Proxy support is in development and coming soon!
