FAQ

How often is RemoteOK data updated? RemoteOK updates their API in near real-time as new jobs are posted. Running the scraper daily gives you fresh listings.

Why are some salary fields zero? Not all employers list salary ranges. When no salary info is provided, both salary_min and salary_max return 0.

Can I filter by multiple tags at once? Yes. Pass an array like ["python", "django", "backend"]. A job is included if it matches at least one of the tags.

Are there legal restrictions on using this data? Per RemoteOK's API terms: if you display this data publicly, you must link back to RemoteOK and credit them as the source.
