How it is calculated

Calculated automatically from public information with a fixed formula — not scored by hand and not a paid ranking. Seven items are each scored 0–10 and combined as a weighted average.

✓ Meets the specified work requirementSpecified work eligibility is a threshold: locations that do not qualify are marked "Does not count"; qualifying ones get no extra points.

Online reviews25%6.0No verifiable rating yet, so the middle value of 6

Pay transparency20%7.0Hourly rate, no amount in the ad

Transport10%5.5To be confirmed

Legal and transparent10%9.0ABN active, Employed directly by the company

7.5 or above is "Recommend", 6.0–7.4 "Worth considering" and below 6.0 "Consider carefully". Items that are still to be confirmed score lower than confirmed good conditions; online ratings with few reviews are pulled towards the middle value of 6, and records of underpayment or official penalties from the last 10 years lower the score.

Award: the ad states the Restaurant Industry Award (MA000119), which is not in this site's Award list, so award is set to null.
The ad does not give the restaurant's exact address; the coordinates use the ABS area centre for Nightcliff.
The ad does not say how many shifts a week; at 2–4 hours per shift, building up specified work days would be very slow, so ask about weekly hours before applying.
