# RuntimeJob
<Class id="qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/tree/stable/0.16/qiskit_ibm_runtime/runtime_job.py" signature="RuntimeJob(backend, api_client, client_params, job_id, program_id, service, params=None, creation_date=None, user_callback=None, result_decoder=None, image='', session_id=None, tags=None)" modifiers="class">
Representation of a runtime program execution.
A new `RuntimeJob` instance is returned when you call [`QiskitRuntimeService.run`](qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService#run "qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService.run") to execute a runtime program, or [`QiskitRuntimeService.job`](qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService#job "qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService.job") to retrieve a previously executed job.
If the program execution is successful, you can inspect the jobs status by calling [`status()`](#qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.status "qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.status"). Job status can be one of the `JobStatus` members.
Some of the methods in this class are blocking, which means control may not be returned immediately. [`result()`](#qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.result "qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.result") is an example of a blocking method:
```python
job = service.run(...)
try:
job_result = job.result() # It will block until the job finishes.
print("The job finished with result {}".format(job_result))
except RuntimeJobFailureError as ex:
print("Job failed!: {}".format(ex))
```
If the program has any interim results, you can use the `callback` parameter of the [`run()`](qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService#run "qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService.run") method to stream the interim results along with the final result. Alternatively, you can use the [`stream_results()`](#qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.stream_results "qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.stream_results") method to stream the results at a later time, but before the job finishes.
