Ledger Recap: 85 US Employers Tracked as Average Holds at 61.5
A recap of the JobCop Live Transparency Ledger for September 4, 2026, tracking 85 graded US employers with an average transparency score of 61.5 out of 100.
Here is the weekly breakdown of employer performance on the JobCop Live Transparency Ledger for the week ending September 4, 2026. Across 85 graded US employers currently tracked on the board, the aggregate metrics offer a clear snapshot of current hiring market conditions. We track these scores to provide job seekers with transparent data regarding employer responsiveness and accountability before submitting an application.
The overall average transparency score across all 85 graded US employers currently sits at 61.5 out of 100. An aggregate score in the low 60s indicates an environment where candidate communication remains mixed across industries. Employers on the ledger are evaluated against structured transparency standards, giving applicants tangible benchmarks rather than relying on unverified recruiter promises.
High Scorers on the Ledger
At the top end of the ledger this week, three organizations share the highest transparency score of 75 out of 100. The six top-rated employers on the board are:
- Hellobackpack: score 75
- Woolpert: score 75
- Anaplan: score 75
- Nuro: score 74
- Amplitude: score 73
- Pindropsecurity: score 72
Hellobackpack, Woolpert, and Anaplan lead the dataset of 85 US employers. They are followed closely by Nuro at 74, Amplitude at 73, and Pindropsecurity at 72. While a top score of 75 shows that no company on the board currently holds a perfect record, these six organizations maintain scores significantly above the aggregate benchmark of 61.5.
Low Performers at the Bottom
On the lower end of the board, six employers trail the rest of the dataset. Myubiquity holds the lowest transparency rating among all graded US employers, standing as the only organization in this update with a score below 50.
The lowest graded employers on the board are Myubiquity with a score of 49, Project Healthy Minds at 51, and Goalbookapp 2 at 52. Moving slightly higher up the bottom tier, Cority holds a score of 55, Osedea records a 56, and Koboldmetals sits at 57.
Scores falling into the 40s and 50s point to persistent gaps in hiring process clarity relative to the general employer pool. Candidates reviewing these employers should consider how a score of 49 or 51 compares against the national average score of 61.5 when managing their active job searches.
Seven-Day Activity and Inquiries
Over the past seven days, platform activity records show zero anonymous candidate reports filed across the system. Furthermore, zero new cases were opened with Dep during this same seven-day timeframe.
A seven-day stretch with zero incoming reports means the scores across all 85 graded US employers remain tied to existing ledger baseline evaluations. As candidates continue submitting applications across these companies, accurate community reporting remains essential for keeping transparency scores updated.
