Your experience
Keep the details that prove what you can do.

A page for every employer or client

- Problems solved and processes improved
- Leadership examples and positive feedback
- Evidence behind important claims

An evidence-backed skills inventory

Review notes
Facts and open questions stay visible.
Career helps you review your record, see what is still unknown, and understand the limits of its guidance.
Built around truthful claims
Career is intended to work from the information you provide and keep unsupported claims visible for review.
- Missing proof remains visible as a gap
- Related experience is not presented as an exact match
- Numbers should come from source material you can review
- Application documents are based on facts you review
Your goal stays in view
Your current career goal helps guide recommendations, job comparisons, experience improvements, and application materials.
- A single job post is treated as one input, not a new career direction
- Your instructions stay visible for review
- Your own priorities stay visible when evaluating opportunities
Original information stays available to review
Use resumes, portfolio files, exports, pasted material, and onboarding answers as source material you can reference.
- Existing documents are reviewed instead of assumed to be current truth
- Conflicting dates and unsupported claims become questions
- Older job-posting versions remain available when a posting changes
Job information is handled carefully
Career separates confirmed facts from unknowns and treats job postings as information to review, not instructions to obey.
- Important job facts are recorded only when supported
- Public company research includes sources, dates, and limitations
- Possible scams are flagged for closer review
- Previous confirmed applications to the same company are flagged
