How this endpoint behaves

Searches Indeed job postings by keyword and location, with the same response shape for every page and filter.

Query parameters:

q (required): search keywords, e.g. software engineer.
l: location (city, state, or zip), e.g. New York, NY. Use /indeed/locations/suggest to resolve a partial location string into a value Indeed itself recognizes.
page: page number, 1-based, defaults to 1.
sort: sort order. Allowed values: relevance (default), date.
radius: search radius in miles, e.g. 25.
fromage: only jobs posted within this many days, e.g. 7.

Notable response behavior:

A valid query with no matches returns total: 0 and an empty jobs array (not an error).
jobs[].company_rating / jobs[].company_review_count / jobs[].job_types / jobs[].posted_relative / jobs[].sponsored / jobs[].urgently_hiring / jobs[].new_job / jobs[].indeed_applyable / jobs[].salary_min / jobs[].salary_max are not always populated and are omitted on some page-1 responses. salary_text and salary_currency are populated on every response.
jobs[].snippet on an unfiltered page-1 response is the job description truncated to roughly 300 characters, not Indeed's own SERP-highlighted snippet.
jobs[].url is always the canonical https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=... link, not an upstream apply-through redirect.
An invalid sort value returns a 400 invalid-params error rather than being silently dropped.
