WP_Query for getting posts under custom taxonomy not working

Question

I am trying to get custom post types from a custom taxonomy. Following the documentation and other similar problems related here, i did the following:

$query = new WP_Query( array(
  'post_type' => 'job',
  'tax_query' => array(

     'taxonomy' => 'location',
     'field' => 'slug',
     'terms' => 'california'
   )
)

But the problem is that this query is getting all posts, not just posts under "California" taxonomy.

If more information is needed, i can provide more code editing the question.

Thanks in advance!

Try something like this:

    $posts_array = get_posts(
        array(
            'posts_per_page' => -1,
            'post_type' => 'job',
            'tax_query' => array(
                array(
                    'taxonomy' => 'location',
                    'field' => 'slug',
                    'terms' => 'california',
          )
        )
    )
);
