Your employability score is a GPS, not a label.
Think fitness trackers: steps, heart rate, sleep. An employability score works the same for your career, showing where you are and what to do next.
What it is
- A mix of signals covering profile strength, project proof, soft skill readiness, and feedback.
- Platforms weigh them differently, but the goal is the same: clarity on where you stand.
Why it matters
- Shows the gap between today and your target role.
- Turns big goals into short action steps.
- Lets you track progress like streaks on an app.
Six-week upgrade plan
- Week 1: Clean resume and GitHub basics.
- Week 2: Build one project to cover your biggest missing skill.
- Week 3: Add one relevant credential or certificate.
- Week 4: Publish a short case study with problem, solution, impact.
- Week 5: Do two mock interviews and review the recordings.
- Week 6: Get feedback from a mentor and adjust your plan.
