Turning job search into a guided, AI-assisted career strategy
at SeekOut ↗︎TL;DR
Job seekers lose momentum between finding a role, applying and preparing for interviews. I designed a career agent built around one editable Path that connects their goals to explained matches, action plans, interview practice and follow-up. It shipped as Career SPOT.

My role
Product design · 0→1 product framing · AI service design
Product focus
A career agent that ties goals, matches, plans and follow-up into one Path.
The Mess
Job seekers’ preferences end up scattered across resumes, conversations and job boards, and momentum fades somewhere between finding a role, applying and preparing for the interview.
The Short Version
Everything hangs off one Path that holds a person’s goals, limits and preferences. The agent matches roles against it, explains why, turns interest into a plan and follows up when it should.
My Part in This
- Turned a job-board chatbot idea into an ongoing career service.
- Defined how Paths, opportunities, plans and tasks connect.
- Designed voice-led onboarding that asks for preferences a few at a time.
What Got Better
- Job seekers keep one thread from the first conversation to interview follow-up.
- Every match comes with a reason, and every plan with a next step.
