Google is launching a new experiment using AI to enable people to explore more career possibilities. In a blog post Wednesday, the company announced that the new “Career Dreamer” tool can find patterns between your experience, educational background, skills and interests.
Career Dreamer allows you to use AI to draft career identity statements by selecting current and previous roles, skills, experiences, education, and interests. Please note that Google can add this career identity statement to your resume or use it as a guide to talking points during an interview.
Career Dreamers can see a variety of careers along your background and interests through the web of visual possibilities. If you’re interested in a particular career, you can dig deeper into it and learn more about what it entails.
The tool also allows you to work with Gemini, Google’s AI assistant, to workshop cover letters and resumes, and explore more work ideas.
It’s worth noting that unlike popular services like Endally and LinkedIn, career dreamers don’t link you to actual job offers. Instead, you don’t have to conduct various Google searches to find the right one for you, as they are designed to help you explore different careers easily.
Carrier Dreamers are currently available as experiments in the US only. It is unclear when or planning to bring experiments to additional countries.
“We hope that career dreamers can help all kinds of job seekers,” Google wrote in a blog post. “During its development, we have been working to offer students navigating their first careers, recent graduates entering the workforce, adult learners looking for new opportunities, and service members, military spouses and veterans. We consulted with organizations that serve a wide range of individuals, including the military community. If you are ready for a career change or simply wonder what you have, try a Career Dreamer. please.”
In a blog post, Google points to a report from the World Economic Forum where people usually do 12 different jobs throughout their lives, and Gen Z is expected to hold 18 jobs in six different careers .
Google points out that it is difficult to frame previous experiences into cohesive stories.
Furthermore, Google believes the tool will help people better express how people are already aligned with other jobs.
