description: Comeet (Spark Hire Recruit) exposes a developer API at developers.comeet.com but does not
  publish explicit per-second rate-limit numbers. Partners must adhere to the technical restrictions in
  the API Terms of Use; consumers should implement defensive retry/backoff. API access is bundled with
  every ATS subscription tier.
