- Remote clarity 15 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Pay transparency 12 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
- Corroboration 10 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Freshness 8 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Role specificity 6 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
