With these data, users can get personalised job and training programme recommendations based on their profiles to help them achieve their career goals.
In his speech during the Committee of Supply 2023 debate, Minister Tan said that the new digital feature will harness data and artificial intelligence “to provide you with more personalised jobs and skills insight,” whilst helping jobseekers improve their job matching and plan for their next steps in their career.
The beta version of the CareersFinder feature will be launched on the MyCareersFuture website in the third quarter of 2023.
“But it will become more powerful as the data grows. We will continue to enhance it over time, to make it even more responsive to jobseekers’ needs,” Minister Tan said.
