Many high-schoolers don’t understand the expectations, courses, and mindset needed for certain jobs. Additionally, people who have taken courses don’t always know what jobs they can do. We want to create a website where people enter what they enjoy or what courses they have taken to get a list of jobs.
How Will This Help?
Each job includes statistics on:
- Salary
- Acceptance rate
- Largest companies
This will help students figure out which are close by, which jobs they enjoy, and which pay well.

Main Struggles
Most of our struggles were due to tedious work that came from debugging the code. We also had multiple tasks where only person could work on that was needed before other tasks could be completed.

How we Overcame These Struggles
We worked really far in advance so that the project could keep moving. We also found that resources like Chat GPT and Stack Overflow could help a lot with efficiently doing tedious tasks and fixing code. Such tedious tasks were:
- Changing names in datasets
- Quickly finding statistics
Conclusion
Unlike other job websites Career Map personalizes its approach to job searching, allowing users to find work according to their preferences and career goals. It does this by allowing the user to input work they have done and activities that they enjoy.
