Match Scoring

JD[Job Description] --> LLM[Claude AI]
SP[Skill Profile] --> LLM
Profile[User Profile] --> LLM
LLM --> Analysis[JdAnalysis]
Analysis --> Score[Match Score]
Analysis --> Keywords[ATS Keywords]
Analysis --> Gaps[Skill Gaps]
The match score considers:
- Skill proficiency match — your proficiency level per skill vs. what the JD requires (not just “have it or not”)
- Experience level — your years vs. what they ask for
- Work rights compatibility — PR/citizenship requirements vs. your status, visa sponsorship availability
- Role alignment — how well responsibilities match your background
Proficiency-Based Matching
Instead of binary “has skill / doesn’t have skill”, matching uses your Skill Profile:
JD requires: Rust (strong), Python (any), React (strong)
Your profile: Rust 8/10, Python 6/10, React 3/10
Rust ████████░░ 8/10 vs. required strong → ✓ strong match
Python ██████░░░░ 6/10 vs. preferred any → ✓ exceeds
React ███░░░░░░░ 3/10 vs. required strong → ✗ gap (need ~7+)
This produces a more accurate match score and clearly shows which skills are gaps vs. strengths.
Cost
Each analysis calls Claude API (~500-1500 tokens per JD):
- ~$0.003-0.01 per job analyzed
- Batch of 50 jobs ~ $0.15-0.50
The CLI shows estimated cost before batch analysis.
