Sometimes a job shows Not scored where its Match percentage should be. That is on purpose. JobIntel would rather say so than show you a number with nothing behind it.
The most common reason is that your profile has no skills yet, so there is nothing to match. Your feed says so at the top: Your jobs are not scored until you add skills to your profile. Click Add skills, add yours, and your jobs get real scores.
If the badge reads Upload resume for scores, JobIntel has no résumé of yours to match against. Upload one, and your jobs are scored against it.
Some postings list too little to score, or are written so that JobIntel cannot read the skills from them. Those show Not scored. Point at the badge to see the reason. To have JobIntel read the posting again, open the job, click More actions, and choose Re-extract Skills.
A big search ranks every job it finds, but only the strongest matches get the full analysis. The rest keep a quick estimate marked est., or show Not scored. Search a smaller area or a more specific job title, and more of what you want is fully scored.
One difference to know. Matching, with a spinner, means the score is on its way, usually in under a minute. Not scored is finished: it will not turn into a number later.
Start with the most common fix. Open Skills and make sure your profile lists what you can do.
