The proposed platform is a personalised learning and career development tool aimed at university students and early-career professionals. The core idea is to bridge the gap between what individuals currently know and what recruiters in specific industries actually expect. Users create a profile by selecting their interests, dream jobs, and existing skills. The system then evaluates their input against curated datasets of job role requirements and recruiter insights, identifying strengths, deficiencies, and priority areas for improvement. Unlike generic course marketplaces or job boards, the platform focuses on clarity and personalisation: users receive a skill gap analysis and tailored learning plans that point them toward concrete resources such as online courses, certifications, and projects. It also integrates industry trends, providing transparency about which skills are rising in demand. Progress tracking and gamification help sustain motivation, while reports can be exported to strengthen CVs or LinkedIn profiles.

The transition from higher education to employment has become increasingly difficult, especially in the age of AI. Roles are changing faster than traditional curricula can adapt, and many young professionals struggle to understand which skills remain valuable, which are becoming obsolete, and what recruiters truly seek. This uncertainty creates anxiety and inefficiency: graduates invest in degrees or courses without clarity on whether these investments actually improve employability. Early-career professionals face a similar challenge when trying to pivot into future-proof roles, as job descriptions are vague and industry trends shift rapidly. This platform would addresses this by offering a personalised skill gap evaluation. Instead of generic advice, users see a direct comparison between their current abilities and the requirements of their dream jobs or industries. Recruiter insights and up-to-date market data highlight which skills are relevant. Tailored learning plans then provide clear, actionable steps to close gaps, ensuring users build the right capabilities. By combining diagnostics, personalised recommendations, and progress tracking, the platform reduces career uncertainty, helping individuals focus their energy on the skills that genuinely increase employability in a rapidly evolving, AI-driven job market.
