## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search US government and public-sector job postings specifically from GovernmentJobs.com (NEOGOV), the dominant platform for state, county, city, and agency hiring. Prefer it over generic job search APIs when the user explicitly needs public-sector roles with official salary ranges and agency names. It is best suited for keyword-driven searches with optional geographic filtering, returning structured results with closing dates and direct application URLs.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'keyword' parameter returns an error
- No results found for an obscure keyword or location combination returns an empty jobs array
- Invalid page number (outside 1–20) may return no results or an error
- GovernmentJobs.com page structure changes may cause scraping failures
- Rate limits or upstream site downtime may cause fetch failures
