How Scoring Works

The 1-5 scale

Every scoring dimension in Jobproof uses a 1-5 integer scale. A score of 1 means the dimension was not addressed or was very unclear. A score of 5 means the dimension was handled with strong specificity, structure, and evidence.

Your overall score is the average of all 13 individual dimensions, giving you a single number that represents the overall quality of your answer. The dimensions are grouped into four categories: STAR structure, Results depth, Delivery quality, and Content quality.

Score bands

Jobproof groups overall scores into four bands. Each band comes with targeted guidance on what to focus on next.

• 1.0 - 1.9 — Early stage

  This is an early-stage answer. Focus on one concrete example with clear outcomes.

• 2.0 - 2.9 — Foundation

  The foundation is there, but stronger specificity and evidence will lift this answer.

• 3.0 - 3.9 — Solid

  This is a solid answer. Sharpen one weak dimension for interview-ready consistency.

• 4.0 - 5.0 — Strong

  This is a strong answer. Keep this structure and tune details for the exact role context.

Reading your report

After each practice session, Jobproof generates a report showing your scores across all 13 dimensions. The report groups dimensions into four categories: STAR structure, Results depth, Delivery quality, and Content quality.

Focus on the lowest-scoring dimensions first. Improving one weak dimension typically has more impact than polishing an already-strong one. The coaching panel highlights specific suggestions for each dimension.

Your report also includes answer templates and model answers that show what a stronger version of your response could look like. Use these as starting points, not scripts — replace the placeholders with your own experiences and details.
