How the score works

Inventory first, then momentum and breadth.

Live job volume carries the largest weight. Recent posting movement, number of distinct roles and salary transparency then strengthen the signal. Missing salary data is not treated as proof of low pay.

Salary integrity

No misleading “average industry salary”.

An industry mixes very different occupations. Jobiba keeps salary evidence at role × city × country level and uses this page only to show salary disclosure coverage. Open a role salary report for actual pay comparisons.
