Target roles

A career record only becomes useful when it is aimed at something.

“I want to progress” is not measurable. “Operations Director at a multi-site care provider” is. Setting a target turns your record into a requirement-by-requirement comparison you can act on.

Targets and figures shown are illustrative examples.

Readiness is the same arithmetic every time — change the evidence and it moves, predictably.

From record to target

The path every member follows.

  1. 1

    Career record

    Roles, scope, scale and results, structured once.

  2. 2

    Target role

    An occupation or a specific vacancy you choose.

  3. 3

    Measurable requirements

    Skills, qualifications and experience, stated explicitly.

Two kinds of target

Aim at an occupation, or at one specific vacancy.

Occupational target

3,040 occupations, structured requirements

  • Drawn from a published occupational taxonomy
  • Requirements are stable and disclosed
  • Good for direction, development and gap planning

Specific vacancy target

A live job description, parsed

  • Requirements come from the advert itself
  • Good for application and interview preparation
  • Shows how your record reads before you send anything

Why definition matters

The target is the measuring stick.

Multiple targets

Free members hold one active target. Plus members can run several at once — comparing readiness across directions with the same evidence.

No silent judgement

  • You choose targets — the platform never assigns one to you
  • Targets are never visible to employers or recruiters

IllustrativeTarget readiness is deterministic: the same record against the same target always produces the same figure.

Aim the record at something real.
