## 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 gloom-hiring-moves-weekly-job-opening-velocity-by-stock-ticker-4ae39408
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest hiring moves data for Consumer Cyclical stocks like RIVN — I want to see the weekly ratio of new to closed job openings and how it compares to the historical baseline.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need alternative data signals on public company hiring momentum tied to stock tickers — particularly for equity research, quantitative screening, or monitoring sector-level labor trends. It is distinct from traditional financial APIs in that it surfaces real-world job-posting velocity as a leading indicator, not reported earnings or price data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized properties filter returns empty data array
- Payment not sent or insufficient USDC causes HTTP 402 response
- Upstream job-listing data source lag may produce stale week values
- Rate limiting if the endpoint is called too frequently
- Response may return empty data array if no hiring activity is recorded for a given filter

## How this service works

Gloom is a free, open-source finance terminal for desktop and TUI with charts, news, filings, portfolios, alerts, and plugins.

## Output

Returns an array of weekly hiring-move records per ticker, each containing: the week date, stock symbol, sector, industry, number of new/open/closed job roles, a hiring ratio (new-to-closed), source tickers, and a statistical baseline object with mean, standard deviation, historical week count, and raw values for comparison.
