Career coach

Ask about your career, find paths that fit your resume, see the skills a role needs and keep a plan. What is sent, what it costs, what is kept.

View as Markdown

The Career coach, in the sidebar, is for questions that are bigger than one resume: where to go next, what a role would ask of you, and how to get there. It uses an AI model, so it is optional and only there if this copy of Rejarsume has AI set up. It gives guidance and changes nothing: no resume is edited, and nothing is kept unless you press Save.

Before you start

It is behind the same Sign in and agreement as AI in the editor: credits and your agreement belong to you and not to whoever uses this browser. You can take the agreement back at any time with Withdraw my agreement.

Choose a resume

Under each tool is Which resume should it read? Nothing about your resumes is read unless you choose one. It is optional for Ask and Plan, where without one the coach knows only what you write, and it is needed for Paths and Skills gap, which are about what a resume shows. The whole text of the resume is sent, contact details included, and the page says so beside the choice. The choice is not remembered, so you say it again each visit.

Ask

Type a question and press Ask. The coach answers in a few paragraphs and suggests what you might ask next. A conversation is held on the screen only: the earlier turns are sent with each question so that it follows what was said, up to the latest eight, and nothing of it is saved. New conversation starts again.

Paths

Find paths suggests directions that fit what your resume shows, from one to five, strongest first. You can say what interests you and what limits your options. Each path says why it fits, with the words from your resume that make it a fit under In your resume, which the server checks are really there: a passage that is not in your resume is left out, and the page says how many. It also lists skills to build and first steps.

Skills gap

Name the role you are aiming at and press Find the gap. If you pasted a job description on the Job tab of the editor's assistant, you can have it read that too, which is the better guide to what the job asks. The answer sets out What your resume shows, each with its words checked, and What it does not show, each with how important it is, how long it takes to build and a way to build it.

Plan

Make a plan turns a goal into phases sized to the months you have and the hours a week you can give. Each phase has actions, the skills it builds and what is true when it is done. Press Save and the plan appears under Saved, where each phase has a box to tick, so you can come back to it.

Saved

Saved lists the plans, sets of paths and skills gaps you kept, with how far a plan has got. Open shows one, and Delete removes it, after asking, from this device and from your account. A saved item is a record of your own, like a resume: it is stored here and in your account, and it comes to your other devices when they sync.

What it will not do

It has no current data on pay, hiring or the job market, and it is told never to state a salary, a growth rate or any other statistic, or to name a company as hiring. If an answer contains an amount or a percentage that nothing you wrote contained, or a web address, the page warns you in a yellow note, because it is the model's and not a source's. A warning is a reason to check, not a ruling. Whether to act on any of it is yours to decide.

Credits

Each request costs credits, taken before the model is called and given back if it fails. Unless whoever runs this copy has set other prices:

  • Ask costs 1 credit.
  • Find paths costs 3 credits.
  • Find the gap costs 3 credits.
  • Make a plan costs 3 credits.

The page shows how many are left and when they renew. Pressing a button twice, or a connection that drops and retries, is not charged twice.

What is sent and what is kept

Only the question, the goal and the resume you chose, and only when you press the button. Nothing you send or receive is stored by the AI service or by the server that relays it: what is kept is a count of requests and credits. The one thing that is kept is what you press Save on, and that is yours, in your account like a resume. See Privacy.
