Problem we are trying to solve here

👩🏽‍🎓

👨‍💻

💼

For students/people who want to do a career switch

It's easy to find individual job postings of a specific job function, but it's difficult to get insights on the general skills needed for a certain occupation or how they could grow on what kind of career path.

For people who want to move forward with their career 

They want to know how they match the requirements for the next level;

Lots of searches need to be done to see the salary information of different levels;

They might not know when to start searching in the job market.

 

Glassdoor's opportunity

Job seekers come to Glassdoor for job postings and company reviews. I think if Glassdoor wants to maintain the relationship we build with job seekers after they have landed on a position, there's a huge opportunity on being the guide along the career path.

How Might We

Help job seekers get holistic information on the career path of an occupation?

Now introducing you to...
