How do you build a career roadmap for yourself?
A list of everything you are missing is not a plan. The order is the product.
- 01
Name the target
The role you want, at the level you want it. Your first job, a move, or the level above you.
- 02
See the gap, scored
Skill by skill, out of 100, against that role, not against strangers.
- 03
Get the order
The skills that move your score most come first, so early effort shows up early.
- 04
Watch it re-score
Close one and the score updates free. The roadmap re-orders around what is left.
What order should you close your skill gaps in?
The roadmap adapts to where you actually are: the sample data, the matched roles and the target level all shift with it.
You have no track record yet. Let us build one.
See which projects and coursework actually count as skills, scored against an entry-level role, and get internships ranked out of 100.
You have the experience. Make sure it gets read.
See which skills transfer into a new field, and get a roadmap for the ones that do not.
Know exactly what the next level needs.
Benchmark against the level above you, and practise the panel before you sit it.
