Your jobs are matched to occupations, and the skills that come with work you’ve already done count for you, whether or not you wrote them down.
Occupations ranked by skill match, each with what the work is, other names it goes by, and what a move usually requires first.
This is the app’s own answer for a line cook’s resume in Canada, nothing held back.
Skills or facts that might help, like “able to lift fifty pounds”, a licence you hold, or a language you speak.
Where your skills point
The percentage is how much of the skills we track for an occupation show up in what you gave us, counting what comes with work you have already done. It is an estimate, not a promise. A licence or credential can slow a move even when the skills match.
What the work is. Each occupation carries the government’s own description of the work, so you know what you’d actually be doing before you get interested.
The other names it goes by. The same work hides under many titles. A head chef is also an executive chef, or just the chef. You’ll know what to search for.
Which of your skills carry over. Read from your own resume, and from the skills that come with work you’ve already done, whether or not you thought to write them down.
What a move usually requires first. Licences, certificates and training that usually come before the work, named up front, because a credential can slow a move even when the skills match.
Skills you built in one job that carry into another. A line cook who holds a station when the tickets stack up already has what a sous-chef needs to run the line. Most resumes hold more of these than their owners realize.
The percentage is how many of an occupation’s skills your resume already covers, counting the ones that come with work you’ve done. It is an estimate, not a promise.
