Understanding Job Scoring: What Makes a Good Opportunity?

Not all jobs are created equal. Some are perfect matches for your skills and experience. Others might be a waste of time. How do you tell the difference?

BidPilot's AI scoring system evaluates jobs based on multiple factors:

## Skill Match

How well do the required skills match your profile? The closer the match, the higher the score.

## Experience Alignment

Does the job require experience you have? Past projects, client testimonials, and portfolio items all factor into this.

## Budget Fit

Is the budget reasonable for the scope of work? The AI considers your typical rates and the job requirements.

## Client Profile

What's the client's history? New clients might be riskier, while established clients with good reviews are more reliable.

## Competition Level

How many proposals is the job likely to receive? High-competition jobs might have lower success rates.

Use job scores as a guide, not a rule. A lower score doesn't mean you shouldn't apply—it just means you should be more selective about which opportunities you pursue.
