Candidates' contacts are closed and paid when searching through the HH database — how to manage the limit on opening contacts?

Answer from AI
There are several approaches to managing contact opening limits in the HH database:
-
User or team quotas — set a maximum number of contact openings within a certain period (day, month). Once the limit is reached, access is blocked or additional limits are offered for purchase.
-
Priority opening — allocate limits to the most valuable or promising candidates based on ratings or filters.
-
Monitoring and reporting — keep track of limit usage with the ability to analyze and adjust policies.
-
Automation of control — in Go code, implement middleware or a service that tracks the number of openings and blocks requests when the limit is exceeded.
An example of a simplified implementation of rate limiting in Go:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"sync"
"time"
)
type RateLimiter struct {
mu sync.Mutex
limits map[string]int
maxLimit int
}
func NewRateLimiter(max int) *RateLimiter {
return &RateLimiter{
limits: make(map[string]int),
maxLimit: max,
}
}
func (r *RateLimiter) Allow(userID string) bool {
r.mu.Lock()
defer r.mu.Unlock()
if r.limits[userID] >= r.maxLimit {
return false
}
r.limits[userID]++
return true
}
func (r *RateLimiter) Reset() {
r.mu.Lock()
defer r.mu.Unlock()
r.limits = make(map[string]int)
}
func main() {
rl := NewRateLimiter(5) // 5 openings per day
user := "user123"
for i := 0; i < 7; i++ {
if rl.Allow(user) {
fmt.Println("Contact opened")
} else {
fmt.Println("Limit exhausted")
}
}
// Reset limits once a day
go func() {
for {
time.Sleep(24 * time.Hour)
rl.Reset()
}
}()
}
This approach helps control the use of paid contacts and optimize expenses.
