Name the career you are aiming at
Enter a desired career, a role you are curious about, or simply a direction you keep returning to. Nothing is locked in — a stated direction is only where the analysis starts.
One line is enough to beginProduct. career-counseller-students is a university-project web platform whose core instrument is an AI Skill Gap Analyzer — a portable career counsellor for students. It helps a student identify the skills they still need for a desired career, without requiring a resume.
Product intent.
Alignment. The product supports SDG 4 – Quality Education, SDG 8 – Decent Work and Economic Growth, and SDG 10 – Reduced Inequalities.
Audience. University students pursuing a career path — including students with no resume, students with no settled direction, and students whose blockers are personal or academic rather than purely technical.
Character of the delivery. A modern, market-current website with cursor-centric fluid background animation, calm motion, and an eye-friendly default dark theme with an available bright mode.
career-counseller-students is delivered as a single first-party web application with an application-owned identity layer and a protected analysis workspace behind it.
Actors.
Ownership. All accepted human-facing responsibilities are owned by the first-party surfaces above. The model provider owns no student-facing journey and exposes no student destination; its work is orchestrated inside the application's own pages.
Narrow exclusions. The platform does not place students with employers, does not submit applications or resumes to third parties, does not act as an accredited certification body, does not guarantee employment or any career outcome, and does not offer a job-board or messaging product. Nothing in this document authorises those capabilities.
The whole product lives in one first-party web application. A visitor can read the purpose of the AI Skill Gap Analyzer on the Landing surface without any account. As soon as the student begins real career-counselling work — capturing a desired career and current skills, receiving a skill-gap result, conversing with the assistant, saving guidance, reading pitfalls, matching opportunities, or working through decisions — the work belongs to a specific student and must be resumable on a later visit. That continuity is what the application-owned identity layer exists for: self-service enrollment through Sign Up, and returning verification through Login.
Access is deliberately split rather than uniformly gated. The anonymous entry surfaces carry no protected student state; everything behind them is the student's own workspace. A protected destination never owns the act that establishes access to itself: Sign Up and Login are anonymous, and each protected page either shows the student's own state or asks for it.
Everything described in this document is current. No future-horizon capability, module, or destination is included in the current pages, requirements, or acceptance criteria. There is no third-party or provider-owned surface in the student's journey, and no headless delivery path.
Delivery boundary summary.

AI Skill Gap Analyzer
A portable career counsellor that works whether or not you have a resume — reading your skills, your constraints and the openings in front of you, then turning them into the next decisions worth taking.
Route marker
Start your pathYou do not have to arrive with a finished plan. career-counseller-students turns uncertainty about your next move into a skill gap you can actually work on, and it travels with you as your direction changes.
Enter a desired career, a role you are curious about, or simply a direction you keep returning to. Nothing is locked in — a stated direction is only where the analysis starts.
One line is enough to beginList the subjects, tools, projects and experience you already have. You describe yourself in your own words, so a polished resume is not part of the process.
No resume requiredThe analyzer compares your stated skills with the career you chose and shows what is already covered, what is missing, and which gap matters first.
Mapped, not scored against youAsk your own questions and receive next actions, the common mistakes standing between you and that career, opportunities that fit your flexibility, and the decisions to weigh at each point.
Options and trade-offs, not certaintyThe analyzer plots what you already hold as settled ground and what your target career asks for as dotted valleys. Nothing is scored out of a hundred — the map shows how far you are from the role and which single step closes each distance.
Select a pinned marker on the map to read the learning action attached to that gap.
No resume needed to start. The first version of this map comes from what you tell the assistant about your skills and constraints; it updates as you answer.
Decision Brief · format preview
One recommendation, decoded
Not a verdict — an option with its condition, its loophole and its reasoning attached, so you can disagree with it on purpose instead of on instinct.
Best when
You have no polished resume yet, or the one you have lists coursework and part-time work but no evidence of the skills your target role actually asks for.
You can name the future you are working toward, even loosely — "data analyst in public health" is enough to start from.
Do not treat a written resume as proof of the skill it claims. A resume states a skill; only a project, a result or a piece of feedback shows it. Writing first creates a tidy document with nothing verifiable underneath, and you will re-write it — or be asked to defend it — once you apply.
Full reasoning
Skill evidence is the input every later step consumes — gap mapping, opportunity matching and decision comparison all read from it. Building the resume first produces an output before its own input exists.
Once two or three skills have visible evidence, your gap map stops being a list of missing words and starts showing which bridges are already under construction.
You will know this choice worked when you can point at one artifact per claimed skill and say what you did, what changed, and what you would do differently next time.
If a specific opportunity you already hold requires a submitted resume within days, write the plainest honest version now and return to evidence-building immediately after.
Trade-off: delaying the resume means you may sit out an early posting you are not yet competitive for. The alternative — applying with an unverifiable resume — spends that same window on rejections that teach you less.
Shown as a representative format before you sign up. Your own briefs are generated from the career, skills and constraints you enter.
Why this project exists
career-counseller-students supports SDG 4 – Quality Education, SDG 8 – Decent Work and Economic Growth, and SDG 10 – Reduced Inequalities. Each statement below names the goal and the exact part of the AI Skill Gap Analyzer that serves it.
The AI Skill Gap Analyzer reads the career you are aiming at and the skills you already hold, then states plainly which ones are missing. Learning actions are pinned to each gap so the next thing to study is always the thing standing between you and the goal — not a generic course list.
Career moves are framed as options and trade-offs rather than one verdict. Every major recommendation arrives as a Decision Brief with the condition it suits best, the loophole to watch for, and the reasoning behind it if you ask to see the whole of it.
Guidance begins from what you know, not from what you have already documented. A student without a polished resume, without a settled direction, or carrying personal and academic blockers gets the same counsel as one who has both — and life problems that hinder a career path are treated as part of the journey, not as noise.
End of the map
No resume needed. Bring whatever you already know and the route will take shape from there.
