Whether you are pursuing education, in the early career stages of your career, pivoting to a new path, or just looking for answers, we are here to help you discover where you will find happiness in the world of work.

The “Career Explorer” is very good at predicting the right career matches for you. During the test, they ask you for your general interest in a handful of randomly selected characteristics of yourself, careers, as well as how satisfied you were in any previous careers. Their models use this information to get a baseline understanding of who you are and what you are interested in, but it is also anonymously combined with all the data they have from other users on their interests, as well as their satisfaction with their previous careers and degrees. The predictions are unique to you but validated against millions of other users.
