Career Suggestion Website in Early Beta

[radderfire]

Hi Guys

I have come up with a new website concept. It's for people that can't think what to do for a career, and it just makes a random career suggestion. I have a very early beta version up at:

CareerBoost.co

Do you think this is a useful concept? Would you use this website?

I need to add a lot more careers into my database. Feel free to suggest careers I should add to it in the thread, preferably with a short explanation about the career. If you want to explain/publicise your own career, now's your chance!

Thanks

So it picks a career out of a hat?

I'm struggling to see the value of it being frank.

Yes, at random. It's intended for people who have no idea what to do, so it just generates random suggestions.

If you actually want to make the site even remotely useful, why not take a little info (not least of all because that's more useful for targeted marketing/advertising) and try to match aptitude/interests with certain career paths and/or sectors?

At the moment it's little more than a random word generator (for phrases beginning with the Letter A).

I could later add something that matched aptitude/interests to careers, and I might do that.

Less, it is a random generator. I thought I would be doing something different here as I haven't seen this done before. It's for the people that have no clue what to do, to give them ideas.

I think it should show similar jobs / linked jobs. For example accountant would show, pay roll , accounting technician , credit controller etc etc.

This is something I might add later. Thanks.

Errr... What is the point of that?

Also, there are about 5 careers that all start with A?

It's for the people that can't think of anything to do. It's like a random idea generator.

I know there isn't much career data in it at the moment, I will be adding many more careers, it's just very early stage.
