Abstract

The problem addressed by CareerCompass is the inefficiency and stress of the job search process, particularly for high school students [1]. CareerCompass integrates advanced mapping technologies and artificial intelligence to create a visual, easy-to-interact-with platform that displays job opportunities on a map, making it easier to find jobs based on specific geographical preferences [2]. Key technologies include Google Maps for better geolocation, Selenium for web scraping, and OpenAI GPT for job assessment and personalized lesson generation [3]. An experiment testing the accuracy of the job assessment system showed a 80% accuracy rate, highlighting its reliability and areas for potential improvement. By providing a user-friendly solution to job searching, the app reduces the time and stress associated with traditional job searching, empowering high school students to make better career decisions and bridging the gap between their current skills and job market requirements. This approach not only streamlines the job search process but also supports users in achieving their career goals through personalized learning paths, making CareerCompass a transformative tool for younger job seekers.
