Error message

未找到匹配 "${query}" 的候选人

What it means

EmptyResultError signalling a genuinely successful query whose talent list was an explicit empty array — no candidates matched the query. Unlike the missing-list case, this is an expected, non-failure outcome.

Solutions

1. Broaden the query keywords (shorter, more generic terms).
2. Remove or relax filters passed to search-talents.
3. Try alternate spellings or Chinese-language search terms.
4. Confirm the target person exists by searching maimai.cn in the browser.

Example fix

// before
maimai search-talents "Senior VP of Platform Engineering at Acme Corp Hangzhou"
// after
maimai search-talents "Acme Corp"  # broaden, then refine client-side

try {
  const talents = await searchTalents(query);
} catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof EmptyResultError || /未找到匹配/.test(e.message)) {
    console.warn(`No candidates for "${query}"; try broader keywords`);
    talents = [];
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: maimai search API returned code 200/0 with an empty list for the given query keywords/filters.

Common situations: Overly specific search terms, rare job titles or employers, filters (industry/location) too narrow, non-Chinese query terms with no matches.
