### Exceptions
The following exceptions may be raised when using JobSpy:
* `LinkedInException`
* `IndeedException`
* `ZipRecruiterException`

## Supported Countries for Job Searching
### **LinkedIn**
LinkedIn searches globally & uses only the `location` parameter. You can only fetch 1000 jobs max from the LinkedIn endpoint we're using
### **ZipRecruiter**
ZipRecruiter searches for jobs in **US/Canada** & uses only the `location` parameter.
### **Indeed / Glassdoor**
Indeed & Glassdoor supports most countries, but the `country_indeed` parameter is required. Additionally, use the `location`
parameter to narrow down the location, e.g. city & state if necessary.
You can specify the following countries when searching on Indeed (use the exact name, * indicates support for Glassdoor):
| | | | |
|----------------------|--------------|------------|----------------|
| Argentina | Australia* | Austria* | Bahrain |

## 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](https://github.com/Bunsly/JobSpy/issues).
---
**Q: Received a response code 429?**
**A:** This indicates that you have been blocked by the job board site for sending too many requests. All of the job board sites are aggressive with blocking. We recommend:
- Waiting some time between scrapes (site-dependent).
- Trying a VPN or proxy to change your IP address.
