All fields are optional:

  • address is the actual job location represented as a string. This can be a street address, or any level up to country. For example, "123 Main Street, Anytown, WA, USA" or simply "USA".

  • distanceInMiles: The distance from the name or latLng in miles in which to search. Default is 20. Maximum is 5000.

    • If the value of name is a street address, jobs within the set distanceInMiles of that singular point are returned.
    • If the value of name is a neighborhood or city, jobs within the set distanceInMiles of the neighborhood/city center are returned. To return all jobs within a neighborhood/city, set distanceInMiles to 0. If distanceInMiles is > 0, then the applied search radius is the geographical boundaries of the neighborhood/city plus the distanceInMiles set in the request. (Geographic boundaries are estimated using the Google Maps Geocoding API.)
    • If the value of name is a colloquial area, like "Bay Area" or "Silicon Valley", the applied search radius is the estimated geographical boundaries of the area plus the distanceInMiles set in the request.
    • If the value name is a state or country, the service returns jobs within the specified state or country, ignoring distanceInMiles.

Multiple locations

When multiple locations are passed to the search query, along with multiple radii, the maximum radius is taken into account and applied to all locations. There is a limit of 5 locations per job.

Set enableBroadening flag

The enableBroadening flag allows you to relax the restrictions on location and job categories in order to increase the number of results that are returned.
