Would You Rather Be combines user data on qualifications and interests, matching this with careers, live job adverts and courses in their local area to build skills that are in demand. Data gathered by the platform on the user’s location, age, qualifications and work history is combined with data from hundreds of career-specific resources to present
individuals with personalised pathways into a range of careers.

These pathways allow users to compare the time, cost and available funding for that individual to move into each career, as well as including training opportunities to support skills development, alongside live job adverts from Adzuna.
