Designed with care

A simple exploration tool, not an automated career decision.

The matching uses only the options selected on this page. It does not assess ability, personality, health, background or employability. Suggested subjects are useful directions rather than fixed requirements. Exact grades and qualifications vary, so check each employer, course or apprenticeship.

Use the results well

Open at least two role profiles, compare the normal working environment and entry route, then look for a local course, apprenticeship vacancy or person doing the job. A role can sound appealing but still have hours, travel, physical demands or qualification requirements that do not suit you.

The role links point to Careers Wales information. Careers Wales also provides broader quizzes and professional careers support if you need a more detailed conversation.
