Next step after your audit

See what Google actually does with your jobs

This audit tells you whether search and AI crawlers can reach and understand your job board. Search Console AI shows what's really happening: connect your Google Search Console (read-only) and AI finds the searches you're close to winning, the job pages you're missing and the expired pages wasting your traffic.

How the readiness score works

42 checks are grouped in six weighted categories. Each tested check passes (1), partially passes (0.5) or fails (0). Checks that can't be tested are excluded and reported as coverage, so a score is never inflated by things we couldn't see.

CategoryWeightExamples
AI crawler accessibility20robots.txt rules for OAI-SearchBot and other crawlers, status codes, bot challenges, login walls, content in the initial HTML
Job data and structured information20JobPosting JSON-LD, Google-required properties, schema vs page consistency, remote eligibility, salary completeness, canonicals
Content quality and freshness20Description depth, posting dates, expired jobs, application link health, duplicates
Niche authority and topical coverage15Homepage positioning, category and company pages, internal topic links (some items need manual review)
Discoverability and website architecture15XML sitemaps, sitemap hygiene, internal linking, URL consistency, noindex, titles and descriptions
AI visibility measurement10Prompt set, recorded citation tests, re-audits (analytics and log integrations are shown as not configured)

Bands: 0-39 critical gaps, 40-59 early stage, 60-79 good foundation, 80-89 strong, 90-100 advanced. These are explanatory bands, not industry benchmarks.

Important: the score measures readiness, not visibility. It is not an official OpenAI or Google metric and it does not guarantee that your jobs will be indexed, ranked, cited or recommended by ChatGPT or any other AI search engine.

FAQs

It checks whether AI search crawlers such as OAI-SearchBot can reach your public job pages (robots.txt, status codes, login walls, bot challenges), whether each job is understandable (JobPosting structured data, required properties, remote eligibility, salary clarity, canonicals), whether jobs are fresh and complete, and whether your sitemap, internal links and category pages make jobs discoverable.

No. The score measures readiness signals this tool can observe. It is not an official score from OpenAI, Google or anyone else, and no tool can guarantee indexing, ranking, citations or recommendations by ChatGPT or any AI search engine.

Each check passes (1 point), partially passes (0.5) or fails (0) and is averaged within six weighted categories: crawler accessibility 20, job data 20, content quality and freshness 20, niche authority 15, discoverability 15, AI visibility measurement 10. Checks that could not be tested are excluded and shown as coverage, never counted as passed.

Yes. There is no payment or credit system. Fair-use limits apply (3 audits per hour per user, 2 per hour per website, one audit at a time) to protect the audited websites and our servers.

No. It sends about one request per second, stops at 25 pages, respects your robots.txt, never logs in, never submits forms and never crawls login, account, checkout or application-form pages. It only checks a few application links once each with a plain GET request (tokenized or one-click links are skipped).

No. It reads the HTML your server returns, which is what many crawlers see. If your job pages are rendered by JavaScript the report says so and recommends server-side rendering, without claiming the content is missing for every crawler.

This audit checks whether search and AI crawlers can reach and understand your job board, from the outside, without any account. Search Console AI (jobboardsearch.com/search-console-ai) connects to your Google Search Console and shows what Google actually does with your pages: the searches you rank for, the ones you are close to winning, Google for Jobs traffic and expired pages wasting traffic. Use this audit to fix access and structure, then Search Console AI to grow your traffic. It is free to start.
