Jared Redick's Job Description Analysis
What Can I Do Next In My Career?
Used by recent grads to Fortune 500 executives since 2009. Endorsed by leaders at the University of California.
Jared Redick's do-it-yourself Job Description Analysis has helped people answer that question since 2009.
Originally developed to help job seekers identify the themes around which they should write their résumés and LinkedIn profiles, “the JDA” quickly expanded to help career planners gain insights into what the future might hold.
Always wondered if you could change careers? Wondering what experience or technical gaps might stand between you and your dream job?
Many JDA users find new ways to mindfully pursue a new career direction, while others have a "What was I thinking?" moment—steering clear of uninteresting roles and potentially avoiding years of unhappiness in the process.
The Job Description Analysis works no matter your seniority. All you need is a career direction you'd like to explore, the realization that you might be a few steps away from realizing your dream job, and the curiosity and commitment to make it happen.
It's not a career test. It won't tell you the color of your parachute. It will give you a dose of what's possible.
