Salary + posting context
Roles where salary evidence and demand meet
What the score means
Opportunity Score is a signal, not a prediction
The score weights live inventory, recent posting momentum, role breadth and salary transparency. Missing salary data is not treated as zero growth, and extreme movements are capped so one small cohort cannot dominate the board.
Location quality
City discovery uses verified Japan locations
City cards and discovery links are admitted only after the source city is normalized and matched to Jobiba's canonical location master for Japan. State names, facility labels, work modes and cities from another country are not promoted as city markets.
