- Role specificity 10 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
- Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Remote clarity 3 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Description depth 2 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Pay transparency 0 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
-5 Ghost-job penalty — Deducted for signals that this posting may not be a real, currently-open role — staleness, repeated relisting, or talent-pool language.
