Your fit: what the percentage on every job means

Your fit is a comparison between your profile and a job's requirements. Without a profile there is nothing to compare — which is why the number only appears once you are signed in and have completed a candidate profile.

If you are not signed in, the job page shows only a note in the same place that the figure exists. The account is free, and the more complete your profile, the more meaningful the number.

Your fit sums up how well your profile matches the requirements of a specific job. joblie assesses seven areas separately and combines them into one figure. The areas carry different weight — what is central to the work counts for more than a side condition.

On the job page the result appears as «{score}% Match». Clicking it opens the breakdown: for each of the seven areas you see whether it is met, partly met, not met, or cannot be assessed. So you see not just the result, but where it comes from.

• Work experience — your years against those required.
• Industry — does the job's field match your interests?
• Qualification — your degree against the one required.
• Salary — your expectation against the job's range.
• Employment type — full-time, part-time, temporary and so on.
• Work arrangement — on site, hybrid or remote.
• Language — your level in the required languages.

An area is only scored when both sides supply the necessary data. If a listing states no salary range, or you have not entered a salary expectation, that area stays unscored. It counts neither as met nor as unmet — it drops out of the calculation.

We do not guess in that case. That is why the breakdown states how many areas your number rests on. And when too little data exists for a meaningful figure, we show no percentage at all — just a note on which profile details are still missing.

That is a deliberate choice. A fit resting on one or two data points would look like a solid number without being one.

In Liechtenstein salaries are advertised hourly, monthly and annually. Comparing the raw numbers would put 25 francs an hour next to 25,000 francs a year, which tells you nothing.

So joblie converts all figures to a common basis before comparing — and uses that same basis for the salary filter in job search, so filter and fit never diverge.

Language is the only area that can rule a job out completely. If your level is clearly below the one required — or the language is not in your profile at all — you see a note stating which language is expected at which level, instead of a percentage.

The reason is practical: if a job needs fluent German and you have basic knowledge, a high percentage would be misleading. A small gap stays within range and is only marked down, not excluded.

Employers who see you in the talent pool get the same number you do — there is no second, more generous calculation for either side. You only appear in the talent pool if you have explicitly opted in.

On request an AI adds a short assessment in words. It is labelled as such and does not replace the calculation.
