FAQ

Q: What should I do first? A: Score one real job with Worth Score. A real posting gives RoleWorth enough context to show decision factors, posting risk, and next action. After that, improve your profile and Proof Bank so Studio can build stronger materials for the jobs you choose.

Q: What is the difference between Worth Score, Job Search, and Jobs Ranker? A: Worth Score evaluates one posting. Job Search finds live roles from a title and geography query. Jobs Ranker compares several roles and routes them into Pursue, Maybe, Skip, or Manual Review.

Q: Does RoleWorth submit applications for me? A: No unattended autonomous final submission. Submission-adjacent workflows require explicit user review and confirmation. Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby are review-gated and fixture-gated where supported. LinkedIn, Workday, login-required, captcha-protected, and manual-only postings remain manual-required unless verified support is shown.

Q: What does the Chrome extension do? A: It captures supported postings from the browser, then lets you score, track, create a resume, or preview safe fields from the side panel. It does not auto-submit, and it should not auto-fill protected-class fields.

Q: What ATS systems are supported? A: RoleWorth evaluates the specific posting and source path, not only the vendor name. A Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby path may be supported only when the product has fixture proof and a review gate for that flow. Unsupported, login-required, captcha-protected, or unclear paths stop as guided/manual-required.

Q: What is a Worth Score? A: A Worth Score is a decision signal for whether a role deserves effort. It combines job specificity, liveness, ghost risk, source trust, salary clarity, logistics, and target-role constraints. It is meant to help you prioritize, not to guarantee an outcome.

Q: Why did a role become Maybe instead of Pursue? A: Maybe usually means the role has promise but there is a missing or uncertain piece: unclear job evidence, unclear compensation, questionable seniority, stale posting signals, location mismatch, or a source path that needs manual review.

Q: Can I use RoleWorth without uploading a resume? A: Yes. Worth Score can judge job-side signals from pasted text or a URL. Uploading a resume and adding proof points improves Studio-side proof coverage, resume tailoring, cover letters, and follow-up drafts after a job earns effort.

Q: What should I put in Proof Bank? A: Add concrete evidence: metrics, projects, leadership examples, shipped work, customer or revenue impact, technical scope, tools used, and interview stories. The best proof points are specific enough that you can explain them under interview pressure.

Q: Is my data sold? A: No. Career-search data is never sold.

Q: What happens when I hit my plan limit? A: Usage pages should show plan counters and limits. If you are close to the limit, score only the roles you are seriously considering and avoid generating kits for weak matches.

Q: Why does the product stop instead of finishing a workflow? A: A stop usually means RoleWorth reached a review, support, source, sign-in, captcha, or fixture-proof boundary. That is expected behavior. Review the item, use the manual path when needed, and keep the pipeline updated.
