Frequently Asked Questions
Last updated: April 16, 2026
How are job match scores calculated?
Match scores estimate relevance based on overlap between your resume and role requirements. We compare skills, years-of-experience language, seniority level, and context keywords in the job description. A higher score means stronger alignment signals, not a guarantee of interview selection.
Are listings on JobScoutify original job postings?
Listings are sourced from third-party job data providers and may include roles from multiple platforms. We display role summaries and outbound links so you can verify the latest details directly on the employer or platform page before applying.
Does AI-generated content guarantee ATS success?
No. Generated resumes and cover letters are drafts designed to save time and improve structure. You should edit every section for factual accuracy, personal achievements, and role-specific relevance before submission.
What resume details should I avoid uploading?
Avoid sharing information that is unnecessary for hiring decisions, such as government IDs, passwords, or financial account data. Only include professional experience and contact details you want employers to see.
