The Data score on cached job postings APIs

Out of 100: the share of the 10 jobs we asked for that match the search. We checked each job on the page the call links to: still open, in the country searched, with the search word in its title. We leave out a job whose page we could not check. Each provider here answers from a copy it keeps. If a provider ran on fewer searches, we compare it with how the others did on those same searches. That way, easy searches can't raise its score.
