Challenge Overview

In today’s fast-paced world, many young individuals find it challenging to discover career paths that truly match their unique mix of skills, interests, and aspirations. This Hackathon invites you to develop an AI-powered platform that acts as a personal career guide, helping youth navigate the maze of potential careers and pinpoint those that align perfectly with their individual profiles.

Background & Rationale

With the job market evolving rapidly, traditional methods of career counseling struggle to keep up, often leaving youth uncertain about their future. An AI-powered solution can bridge this gap by providing up-to-date, personalized career guidance, ensuring young people are equipped to make informed decisions about their futures.

Inspiration, Innovation, Transformation

This challenge is not just about creating a tool; it’s about sparking a movement towards informed career choices and empowering the next generation to achieve their full potential. Your solutions will pave the way for a future where career exploration is dynamic, data-driven, and tailored to every individual’s unique journey.

Technical Requirement

• Develop an intuitive AI algorithm capable of analyzing user inputs (interests, skills, etc.) to provide personalized career recommendations.
• Ensure the platform is user-friendly, with an engaging interface that encourages interaction and exploration.
