SMART CAREER ASSISTANT: AN AI-POWERED CAREER GUIDANCE AND JOB SEARCH SYSTEM

Abstract

The recruitment and employment process has changed rapidly with the growth of digital technologies. Today, job seekers must manage several tasks at the same time, such as searching for jobs on different platforms, preparing resumes, and planning their career paths. Even though many job portals and resume-building tools are available, users still face challenges in handling these activities effectively.
Most traditional job portals mainly provide job listings and offer only limited personalized support. In a similar way, many resume-building tools focus more on formatting rather than evaluating the actual quality or relevance of resume content. Because of these limitations, users often depend on manual effort or external guidance to improve their career opportunities
In recent years, AI has started to play a bigger role in career support systems. Instead of only showing information, these systems can understand user needs and provide useful suggestions through conversation. Many users find this approach easier compared to traditional tools. Based on this idea, our work introduces a Smart Career Assistant that combines career guidance, resume analysis, and job search support in one place, making the overall process simpler and more practical.
