Clarity first → then ATS → then weekly proof

Career Clarity Quiz — Find Identity-Fit Roles

Pick a role family you’ll actually enjoy, get an honest ATS baseline, and build weekly proof that compels interviews. Most job seekers do this backwards — they chase keywords, inflate a score, and wonder why progress stalls. We help you flip the order so each step reinforces the next.

Why clarity comes before applications

Clarity cuts waste. When you know your identity-fit role families, every edit to your resume, portfolio, and outreach becomes easier. You stop “covering everything” and start building depth. Recruiters notice specifics: how you think, what you shipped, why it mattered. That’s impossible if you haven’t chosen a lane.

Our approach is practical: we use a short quiz to narrow options, then we baseline your resume with a realistic ATS scan. From there, we convert insights into a weekly plan you can sustain: rewrite three bullets with outcomes, apply to three aligned roles, and save one small proof artifact. It’s unglamorous — and it works.

How the Clarity Quiz works

1) Role families

You’ll answer short prompts about strengths, pace, autonomy, collaboration style, and the kind of problems you like solving. We map that to 2–3 role families that fit your identity and energy.

2) Honest baseline

Run the Honest ATS scan to catch parsing issues, missing context, and weak evidence. No vanity scores — just the reality of how your resume reads.

3) Weekly proof plan

Each week: rewrite 3 bullets with measurable outcomes, apply to 3 aligned roles, and save 1 proof artifact (demo, gist, deck, write-up, or metrics). Small steps compound into momentum.

What you’ll get (clarity → direction → proof)

Who this is for (and who it isn’t)

For: people who want to enjoy their day-to-day work, mid-career switchers who feel “capable but scattered,” grads who prefer a deliberate start over a frantic apply-all sprint, and professionals who’ve realized that keyword stuffing can’t replace outcomes.

Not for: anyone expecting a magic job title, a one-click ATS fix, or guarantees. We can’t control hiring cycles or luck — we can control clarity, evidence, and persistence.

What recruiters actually scan for

Evidence tied to responsibilities. The clearer the “problem → action → measurable result,” the faster you stand out. Formatting must be parser-safe, and bullets must persuade. That’s why we combine clarity with an honest ATS baseline.

Traps to avoid

  • Optimizing the resume before choosing a role family.
  • Inflating a score without adding outcomes or context.
  • Ignoring formatting constraints that break parsing.

How to start (in 10 minutes)

  1. Take the quiz — be honest about pace, autonomy, collaboration, and what energizes you.
  2. Baseline your resume with the Honest ATS scan. Note parsing errors and weak evidence.
  3. Rewrite three bullets with outcomes (numbers, timelines, deltas). Remove fluff. Keep verbs strong.
  4. Apply to three aligned roles. For each, save one tiny proof artifact — a 200-word case note, a link to a demo, or a graph of impact.

Repeat weekly. Steady wins.

Your data, your control

You can use the quiz and scanner with minimal friction. We store only what’s needed to provide guidance and show progress, and you can request deletion at any time. We never sell personal data. If you’d rather keep everything local, export your notes and artifacts and track them however you prefer — clarity and evidence are portable.

FAQ

Can I check my resume against a job description?

Yes — paste the JD and we’ll highlight gaps and suggest measurable edits tied to the role. This is most effective after you’ve chosen a role family; context sharpens advice.

Will the quiz dictate my future forever?

No. It’s a starting point, not a sentence. You’ll validate the result by building proof in small steps — if a role family isn’t energizing, switch early with data rather than late with regret.

Do I need a perfect resume format?

Parser-safe beats fancy. Clean headings, consistent dates, and bullet outcomes outperform heavy templates. We’ll flag risky formatting and help you fix it.
