How do we calculate Scoring & Weightage in Search & Match?

Here is a detailed description of how we calculate the weightage in search and Match API.

Score:- It is a value out of 100 which we are giving to entities to calculate the weightage. It represents the relevancy of the match records to the query. 

Weightage:-  Entities value contribution to the score is the weightage of the entity. It is like a preference to the entity by a certain value.

How we calculate it?

We calculate score based on the document (Resume/JD) entity, and we have our own algorithm to calculate it. For calculation, we give weightage to entities out of 100 based on the algorithm.

Below you can find the list of entities for Searched Query.
