How to get a high match score
The match score, from 0 to 100, judges how well you could do the work in an opening, read from the experience and skills in your profile — not from job titles. 85–100 is a Strong match, 70–84 is Worth a look, and anything below 70 is not shown. Three things decide it most.
Give us a profile we can score
A search can only start once Professional information has a professional summary, a level, your total experience and your job search status, plus at least one skill. After that, what moves the score most is Work experience: write what you did and what came of it in each role, because the work is what gets judged, not a keyword that happens to appear twice. List the Skills you actually use.
Search for roles at your level
Openings are picked by the role and location you search for, and other names for the same role come along — Frontend Engineer also finds React Developer. Openings more than one level away from yours are set aside straight away. When scoring, being one level more junior than the opening asks for counts as a gap; being one level more senior is usually fine.
Keep your filters realistic
The minimum salary, work arrangement and employment type in Job preferences set openings aside before they are scored, and the top of your results says how many we discarded and why. Only openings whose highest pay is below your minimum are dropped; openings with no salary listed are still scored. If you get few results, widen your preferences or choose Search again with another role or location — All cities/provinces, for instance.
Tip Open Read the gaps on a 70–84 opening. If a gap is something you can already do but have not written down, add it to your profile and your next search will score higher. A gap you really do have can become the start of a journey in Arah.
