Options
- 
:wait- Enqueues the job with the specified delay in seconds
- 
:wait_until- Enqueues the job at the time specified
- 
:queue- Enqueues the job on the specified queue
- 
:priority- Enqueues the job with the specified priority
Examples
class SiteScraperJob < ActiveJob::Base
  rescue_from(ErrorLoadingSite) do
    retry_job queue: :low_priority
  end
  def perform(*args)
    # raise ErrorLoadingSite if cannot scrape
  end
end
