You Can Now See Exactly Why You Match a Job
Matching used to be a black box. You got a score, you didn't know how it was calculated, and you had no idea what to do about it. We've changed that.
For years, matching was a one-way street. A company ran a query, your profile came back with a score, and you had no idea how it was calculated. You either heard from them or you didn't.
We've changed that.
What you can now see
Every job in your Matching Jobs list is now expandable. Open one and you'll see exactly how your verified skills stack up against what that role actually requires.
- How many of your AI-assessed skills overlap with what this role requires — not a vague percentage, but a specific count against a specific denominator.
- A radar chart showing your coverage across the skill families the role cares about. Not just 'you're a 60% match' — but where that 60% is strong, and where the shape of your experience falls short.
- Which skills were excluded from the calculation, and why. If a skill you have didn't count, you'll see it listed — either the AI hasn't assessed it yet, or the assessment came back lower than what you claimed.
The AI insight
For any job, you can also request an AI-generated analysis of your fit. It reads your assessed skills against the role's requirements and gives you two things: skills you might have overlooked in your profile that are relevant to this role, and an honest read on how your overall background aligns with what the company is actually asking for.
This isn't a match score dressed up as prose. It's generated from your actual AI-verified skill profile — so it can tell you when Kubernetes is listed on your profile but wasn't counted, and exactly why.
The insight uses your AI-assessed skills as context. Skills you've added but never verified are invisible to it — which is the point.
The honest part
The coverage calculation — and the AI insight — are only as good as your AI assessments. Skills you've added but never verified don't count toward the radar chart. Skills where the AI scored you lower than your self-assessment get flagged and excluded.
That's intentional. A lower-but-honest number is more useful than a higher-but-inflated one. The radar chart shows you exactly where the gaps are — and those are real gaps worth closing, not scores you can argue your way around in an interview.
The company on the other side sees the same data, oriented differently. Where you see coverage, they see alignment. Where you see gaps, they see gaps too — they just don't see why. The match score they look at is calculated from the same source as yours: your verified skills, measured against their requirements. The underlying truth is shared. What each side does with it is their own.
Signal interest from the same card
Once you've reviewed the coverage and the insight, you can signal interest directly from the job card — no modal, no navigation away. A discreet signal goes to the company. You stay anonymous. They see that a candidate matching your profile is interested in their role.
You can hold three active signals at any time. If you want to add a fourth, the oldest one is replaced. The cap exists because a signal that means something requires scarcity — if you signal everything, you've signalled nothing.
