FAQ
Common questions
I have a job offer on the table — how do I know if it’s actually worth taking?
That’s exactly why JobIQ exists. Instead of guessing based on salary alone, you enter six factors — pay, remote fit, flexibility, challenge, growth, and balance — and get a single score that tells you how well the role matches what you actually care about.
What does the JobIQ score actually measure?
It measures alignment between what you need and what the job offers. The score weighs salary change, remote and flexibility match, intellectual challenge, growth potential, and work-life balance against your personal requirements.
What is a good JobIQ score?
Above 1500 is excellent — the role strongly matches your priorities. Between 500 and 1500 is decent with room for negotiation. Below 500 means significant mismatches you should address before accepting.
Is it only for tech jobs?
No. JobIQ works for any role where salary, flexibility, and growth matter — from marketing to finance to healthcare. The factors it measures are universal.
What if I don’t know the exact salary?
Use your best estimate. You can adjust the numbers and recalculate instantly — the tool is designed for quick iteration so you can test different scenarios.
Can I compare multiple job offers?
Yes. Run the calculator once for each offer and compare the scores side by side. The breakdown per factor helps you see exactly where each offer is stronger or weaker.
Is my data stored anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, nothing is saved, and there are no cookies or tracking. Close the tab and it’s gone.
Is JobIQ free?
Completely free, no sign-up required, no limits on how many times you can use it. It will stay that way.
