The JobCrawls Employer Score is a single 0–100 number derived from patterns we can measure consistently across job listings. It is meant to highlight employers who communicate clearly, structure compensation fairly, and advertise flexible, candidate-friendly roles — not to replace your own interviews and diligence.
For now, the headline score uses only pay bands, flexibility, hiring stability, and growth — because benefits depth and listing-level transparency signals are not yet connected to the scoring pipeline. Weights below are renormalized to 100% across those four pillars.
What goes into the score
Pay (posted salary bands)
When we have enough listings with structured salary ranges, we score how competitive the typical band is. Listing-level salary transparency will fold into this pillar once that signal is wired end-to-end.
31%
Flexibility (remote / hybrid)
Remote and hybrid options are scored from how consistently employers advertise flexible work models across their open roles.
25%
Hiring stability
We look at hiring continuity over time — employers that maintain steady, non-spiky hiring patterns score higher than those with chaotic posting behavior.
25%
Growth signals
When listings include seniority structure and career progression cues, we interpret that as stronger internal growth paths.
19%
Important limitations
Scores reflect what employers publish in listings we index — not internal HR policies we cannot see.
A higher score is not an endorsement, guarantee of quality, or legal/financial advice.
Weights and signals may evolve as we improve detection; we aim to keep the methodology directionally stable.
