Career field validation study

Help validate a college-field recommendation model

This survey is for employees in one of fourteen career fields. You will review a short consent form, answer a few background questions, complete 30 preference items, see three model-generated college-field recommendations, and answer a brief follow-up about how those recommendations relate to your current role. Your responses are saved for thesis research only as described in the consent text.

How it works

1

Consent and background

Read the informed consent, confirm participation, then answer questions about your time in your current role and job satisfaction (name optional).

2

Questionnaire and model

Complete 30 questions about preferences and work style. Your answers are mapped to features and scored by a gradient-boosted model trained on combined career datasets.

3

Recommendations and validation

View your top three college-field recommendations, then answer a short validation section so we can measure how the recommendations relate to your role and interests.
