Why NextGen Match

Transparent scores

The score is the share of a listing's required skills you have, weighted by how important each one is. No black box.

Verified employers

Employers are reviewed by an administrator, and you can report a listing that looks wrong.

Your data, your control

We ask for your consent under POPIA, and you can delete your account and personal data at any time.
