A new experimental Google AI tool aims to help people explore career possibilities.
Career Dreamer uses AI to analyze your past experiences and suggest potential new gigs. “Think of it like a helping hand to bridge where you’ve been and imagine where you could go next,” Google says.
The tool begins with some basic questions about previous experiences, skills, and interests. Career Dreamer will then generate a “career identity statement,” which can be added to a resume or used as talking points during interviews.
If you like the draft, click “Explore paths” and move to the next stage. Otherwise, you can click the “Re-generate” button to generate another draft.
On the next page, the tool will use Gemini and job market data from Lightcast and the Bureau of Labor Statistics to suggest domains where your skills can be applied. Hovering over each career option will give details about the field and why you might fit in. “It can even help you discover training resources like Google Career Certificates and Google Cloud Skills Boost,” Google says.

Additionally, click the “Explore paths based on” button in the center to filter out options based on your experiences, education, skills, or interests.
The last stage involves using the Gemini chatbot. You can ask the chatbot to draft a cover letter, improve your resume, or provide new career exploration ideas. However, as News notes, Career Dreamer won’t connect you to actual job postings like LinkedIn or Indeed. In Google’s own words, it’s a tool that would assist someone “just wondering what’s out there.”
