How Worth Score works

Worth Score answers one question first: should this job get your next hour or not? It is not an interview prediction and it is not a resume-tailoring score.

The score looks for practical signals a job seeker can act on:

1. Job specificity: concrete responsibilities, seniority, outcomes, team/function clarity, and boilerplate risk. 2. Posting freshness and liveness: posted age, observed source, apply-link status, closed/expired language, and source confidence. 3. Ghost-risk and scam-risk flags: vague urgency, fee/payment language, suspicious contact paths, stale/repost patterns, or low-intent wording. 4. Compensation clarity: salary visibility, range quality, and whether the role gives enough information before you tailor. 5. Logistics: geography, work mode, travel, schedule, visa, clearance, and hard constraints where visible. 6. Market/source signal: official source trust, aggregator quality, duplicate signals, and company/career-page consistency. 7. Target-role constraints: whether the role matches the type of work, seniority, work mode, and compensation range you said you want.

The output is a Worth Score, a confidence level, top drivers, and a Pursue / Maybe / Skip recommendation. Resume matching, keyword gaps, and proof rewriting happen later in Studio after the job earns effort.

What this is not: no opaque guarantee, no fake interview probability, and no unattended application decision. Better inputs produce better signals. Weak or incomplete postings can still be scored, but the confidence and driver text should tell you what RoleWorth could not verify.
