Job matching that shows its work.
Every listing in your Radar gets a score from 0–100. That score comes from two independent signals, combined — and every match tells you exactly which part of your profile it hit.
Start matchingTwo scoring layers, not one.
Most job boards match on keywords. Alenea uses two independent layers — one that understands meaning, one that checks your explicit preferences — then combines them.
Layer 1 — Semantic match
Your CV and each job description are independently converted into numerical representations of meaning. We measure how closely they align — not whether the same words appear, but whether the underlying experience and requirements point at the same thing.
Layer 2 — Structured signals
In parallel, we score four explicit dimensions: how well the role title matches your target, how many of your skills and tools appear in the job requirements, whether the seniority level fits your preference, and whether the location works for you.
What the score means.
High match
Strong alignment across both layers. Role, skills, and context all point in the same direction. Worth a close look.
Medium match
Partial alignment — the role may fit but some signals are weaker. The match explanation will tell you where the gap is.
Low match
Weak alignment on most signals. These surface in your Radar with lower priority.
Preferences are enforced, not just suggestions.
If you've told Alenea you only want remote roles, senior-level positions, or jobs in a specific country — and a listing clearly doesn't match — the score is penalised multiplicatively, not just nudged down. A seniority mismatch cuts the score significantly. A work-mode mismatch does the same. This means preference violations don't accidentally surface as medium matches.
Penalties only apply when you've set a preference. If you leave seniority blank, no seniority penalty is ever applied.
Every match explains itself.
Alenea doesn't just return a number. Each match in your Radar includes:
- The specific skills or tools from your profile that appeared in the job requirements.
- Whether your seniority preference and the role's level align.
- Whether the location or work mode matched.
- A plain-language summary: strong match, partial on keywords, or seniority differs.
- Growth areas — required skills in the job description that aren't prominent in your profile.
