What it does, and what it does not do yet
CareerAlign is in active development. Everything below is labelled with where it actually is, because a feature list that quietly includes unbuilt things is a sales problem waiting to happen.
Capabilities
Structured assessment
BuiltEighty-nine items across nine sections, mixing forced choice, rating scales, ranking, bipolar sliders, career history and open questions. Save and resume at any point.
Deterministic matching
BuiltEight weighted dimensions scored against structured career profiles. Same answers, same result, every time — and the full working is available for any score.
Career themes
BuiltDescriptive groupings that summarise a profile without reducing a person to a type. A client can hold several, and they change with circumstance.
Tenant isolation
BuiltEach practice is a separate tenant, isolated by database row-level security rather than by filtering in application code. A query that forgets its tenant returns nothing rather than everything.
AI-assisted interpretation
In progressLanguage models phrase results that have already been calculated and classify free text into a fixed taxonomy. They cannot alter a score.
Practitioner workspace
Phase 2Clients, assessment status, private notes, career plans and reports in one record per client.
Professional reports
Phase 3Fourteen sections carrying your practice branding, ending with a numbered methodology section, and legible printed in greyscale.
Career pathways
Phase 3Transferable skills, gaps, qualifications, job titles worth searching, and 30-day, 90-day and 12-month actions.
The eight dimensions
Every one scored from the client’s own answers.
Interests
What kinds of work pull their attention, across thirteen areas.
Values
What has to be true about a job for it to be worth doing.
Strengths
What they are good at, self-rated and cross-checked against history.
Skills
Capability by domain, with shortfalls treated differently from surplus.
Work preferences
Nine bipolar dimensions — structure, pace, autonomy, visibility.
Motivators
What actually sustains effort once novelty wears off.
Experience
Occupations held, tasks enjoyed, tasks avoided, transferable skills.
Constraints
Money, time, location, study appetite, industries ruled out.
