Daily quests for landing your dream job.
Rolemap is an AI-powered career planning platform that transforms vague career goals into a structured, gamified, and actionable roadmap.
Users select 2–3 target roles (e.g., Software Engineer, Product Manager), rank dream companies, upload their resume, and connect their GitHub. Rolemap analyzes their current skill set, compares it against real hiring expectations, and generates a personalized visual roadmap with daily and weekly tasks.
Instead of “set it and forget it” career goals, Rolemap builds systems for consistent progress.
Job preparation often feels overwhelming and unstructured. Rolemap solves this by:
- Analyzing where you are now (Resume Parsing + GitHub)
- Comparing your skills to real job expectations
- Highlighting skill gaps
- Generating clear, executable tasks
- Reinforcing learning with checkpoints
- Gamifying consistency with streaks and points
- Choose 2–3 target roles
- Select and rank dream companies
- Prioritize focus if multiple roles are selected
- Upload PDF or DOCX resume
- Extract:
- Skills
- Experience
- Projects
- Identify missing or underdeveloped skills
- Connect GitHub account
- Analyze repositories for:
- Languages used
- Commit activity & recency
- Project scope
- Infer actively practiced skills
- Map projects to role expectations
- Visual roadmap with checkpoints
- Highlight missing skills
- Recommend exercises or learning resources
- Adapt roadmap as progress is made
- Generate small, actionable tasks
- Assign deadlines
- Sync with Google Calendar / Apple Calendar
- Notifications & reminders
- Points system
- Streak tracking
- Leaderboard
- Milestone checkpoints
- LinkedIn parsing for improved customization
- Company culture & fit analysis
- Skill decay tracking with spaced repetition
- Anonymous forum with intern/full-time insights
- Data-driven insights on skills that mattered in hiring
