Your Match Score is a powerful indicator that shows how closely your current skills align with the requirements of a specific role. This score helps you identify where you are strong and where there are opportunities for growth.

How Your Match Score is Calculated

The platform compares your Skills Profile (from extracted CV or Singpass) against the core & additional skills required required for a role.
  • Skill Alignment: The score reflects the percentage of mandatory skills you already possess.
  • Proficiency Matching: It considers not just the existence of a skill, but whether your proficiency level meets the role’s minimum requirements.
  • Gap Analysis: Any missing core skills are flagged as “Skill Gaps,” which are the primary factors used to lower a score from 100%.

Match Score Indicators

In various modules like Career Insights or Talent Attraction, you will see labels that simplify your match status:
  1. 🟢 Strong match: Highly qualified/matched.
  2. 🟡 Medium match: Likely qualified/matched.
  3. 🔴 Low match: Unlikely to qualify/matched.

Why It Matters

  • Strategic career planning: Use match scores to evaluate your Career Aspirations. Seeing a “Strong” match for a dream role provides a clear roadmap of what to learn next.
  • Personalized learning: The Learn module uses your match score to prioritize course recommendations that specifically target your identified skill gaps.
  • Talent attraction: For hiring managers, match scores allow for objective, skills-based shortlisting of internal and external talent.
