## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability careerpulse-resume-intelligence-api-e80fbf24
```

Example prompt: Can you check my resume against a Senior Software Engineer role — I want to know my ATS score, what keywords I'm missing like TypeScript or system design, any formatting problems, and get a better headline suggested?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a structured, quantitative ATS compatibility assessment of a resume with specific keyword gap identification and headline recommendations — particularly useful when a user is targeting a specific role and wants actionable, enumerated fixes rather than generic advice.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed resume input returns an error
- Unsupported language or file format causes parsing failure
- Ambiguous or very short resume content may produce low-confidence scores
- Network timeout on the Vercel deployment under heavy load
- Payment not processed or invalid USDC payment results in 402 rejection

## How this service works

Global career intelligence API serving the world's 3.5 billion workers. 10 endpoints: salary benchmarking (any role + any country, sourced from BLS, OECD, ILO, Glassdoor, Levels.fyi), industry outlook, skills-gap analysis (with Coursera/Udemy/Pluralsight course links), ATS-optimized resume intelligence, salary negotiation playbooks, career transition roadmaps, remote work setup intelligence, certification recommendations (with A Cloud Guru/Pluralsight links), interview prep, and layoff/severance guidance. Full global scope — 190+ countries, 75+ languages via ?lang= parameter. LinkedIn Premium and resume builder affiliate links on relevant endpoints. All require x402 micropayment (USDC on Base).

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: ats_score (integer 0-100 rating resume ATS compatibility), keyword_gaps (array of missing keywords relevant to the target role), format_issues (array of formatting problems detected), and suggested_headline (an optimized professional headline string).
