## 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 jobherder-quick-match-3c3db277 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I need Jobherder to find me the single best job opening that fits my background — I have 5 years in product management, worked at SaaS startups, skilled in Agile and roadmap planning — and generate a tailored CV and cover letter for it.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, high-quality single job recommendation with a ready-to-submit application package (CV + cover letter) rather than a broad list of job listings. It is ideal for candidates who want an actionable, personalized job application in minutes rather than raw search results they must filter and write for themselves.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient candidate profile data causes poor or no match
- No currently available roles closely matching the candidate's profile
- Malformed or missing required body fields return a 400 error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance prevents execution
- Service timeout if job database is temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

## Output

Returns the single best currently available job role matched to the candidate, along with a tailored CV customized to that role and a personalized cover letter, all generated within minutes.
