How Boyd hires

Truth index
B 75/100
Ghost roles
0%
Stale roles
100%
Reposted roles
0%

Boyd scores B on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 24 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 100% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed

Overview

About Me I like writing about expertise, using computers to solve problems, and bringing novel ideas into existence.
