Tips

Scope the search yourself. A query you already narrowed to a city is never silently widened; broad queries are re-run as narrower slices only when you enable widening.
Use onlyNewJobs for monitoring. Skipped postings cost no requests and no charge, so a daily run over a stable query stays cheap.
maxItems is your spend cap. It is the hard ceiling on what a run can charge — set it before raising concurrency.
Turn on strictMatch when feeding a downstream model; padding and sponsored results are the main source of noise in Indeed data.

faq

Can I get jobs and company data in the same run?

Yes. Switch on includeCompanyDetails and every employer the search discovered comes back too, with whichever of profile, reviews, salaries, and Q&A you ask for. Jobs join to companies on Indeed's employer id rather than on company name.

How much of a search can it actually collect?

On a search Indeed reported as 2,676 postings, paging alone returned 737 unique jobs in 41 requests, and 1,388 in 369 requests with widening enabled. Every run logs what it collected against what Indeed claimed.

Does it return sponsored and loosely-related postings?

Only if you want them. Indeed pads every result page with them; strictMatch drops them, judged against the full description rather than the snippet.
