Your challenge: Childcare, rides or paying for training Step 1 of 2

Line up what you already qualify for first. A plan that ignores childcare or a way to get there is a plan that stalls in week three.

Your Career Pathway Report

Most people are not short on skills. They have run out of ceiling inside their own occupation code. This finds the adjacent work that pays more for what you already do.

Built from 351,119 occupation edges, BLS wage percentiles, 10,012 Indiana establishments with employer-reported headcount

Five evidence tiers kept visibly separate, strongest first, each labeled in plain English. None of them is an observed transition and the report says which is which.

Alex for Workforce · Career Pathway

Find out what your experience is actually worth.

Most career advice tells you to get more skills. Often that is not the problem. People frequently sit at the top of what their current job title pays, while a closely related line of work pays far more for the same underlying experience. Answer a few questions and we will price your experience against federal wage data, then hand you the job titles to search, the employers near you who hire for that work, and the free help you already qualify for.

Start from your resume instead

Upload it and we will fill this form in for you, then point out the strongest number in it. Optional, and the report is the same either way.

Where you are now

We use your job titles to find your occupation in federal wage data. You will get a chance to confirm the match before we build anything.

Worth filling in even if it feels irrelevant. Earlier roles are frequently where the best-paying option comes from, because they qualify you for work your current title does not obviously point to.

What you are looking for

Both matter, and they do different jobs. The first filters out roles that cannot work for you. The second tells us how far up the range each option actually reaches.

This does not lower what we show you. Experience substitutes for formal education in a lot of well-paying work, and we account for that.

A few quick questions

There are no wrong answers. These decide which parts of your report lead.

How much room is left to earn more in the job you have now, without changing employers or roles? 1 = plenty of room, 4 = none, I am at the top of what this job pays.

How confident are you that you know what your experience is worth on the open market? 1 = very confident, 4 = no idea.

How confident are you that you are searching the right job titles? 1 = very confident, 4 = no idea what to type.

How well do you know which specific employers near you hire for the work you want? 1 = I could name ten, 4 = I could not name one.

How well does your resume show what you actually accomplished, in numbers? 1 = every role has hard numbers, 4 = it is a list of duties.

How much of your job search runs through people you already know, rather than online applications? 1 = mostly people, 4 = entirely online applications.

How well do you know which free local programs and funding you qualify for? 1 = I know and use them, 4 = I did not know any existed.

Anything that should point you to extra help?

This only adds resources to your report. It never changes the pay range we show you, never removes an option, and never lowers what we recommend.

What matters to you in the next job?

Optional, and it never changes the pay range or removes an option. Pick what you actually care about and your report will say which of them you can confirm before you sign, which you can only find out by asking, and the question to ask.

If we cannot check something for you, the report says so rather than guessing.

Wage figures are BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (May 2025) for the Indianapolis-Carmel-Greenwood metro. They are population statistics, not an offer or a guarantee of placement. Hamilton County employers typically pay 10 to 20 percent above the MSA median for skilled roles.
