Question 1

How does JobDecode analyze job listings?

Accepted Answer

JobDecode uses Google's Gemini AI to analyze your job listing across multiple dimensions. It generates a plain-English summary, looks up real salary data from current market sources, translates corporate jargon into honest language, identifies red and green flags, extracts resume keywords for ATS optimization, and suggests interview questions specific to the role.

Question 2

What are common red flags in job descriptions?

Accepted Answer

Common red flags include vague salary information ("competitive compensation"), unrealistic requirements for the seniority level, language suggesting high turnover ("hit the ground running"), excessive emphasis on "hustle culture" or unpaid overtime expectations, and roles that combine responsibilities of multiple positions without appropriate title or compensation.

Question 3

How accurate are the salary estimates?

Accepted Answer

Salary estimates are sourced from real-time market data using Google's grounding search, pulling from job boards, salary databases, and employer-reported data. Each estimate includes cited sources so you can verify the numbers yourself. Estimates reflect current market conditions for the specific role, location, and experience level described in the listing.

Question 4

Is my data stored or shared?

Accepted Answer

Job descriptions are sent to Google's Gemini AI for analysis. If you create an account, your decode results are saved to your personal history so you can revisit them. You can delete any decode at any time. We never share your data with third parties. Anonymous users' data is not stored at all.
