Practitioner And Client Roles
The practitioner supplies or selects interest data. The client reviews candidate occupations and records preference signals. The practitioner reviews the narrowed set.
Occupation Match Explorer
The Occupation Match Explorer is a career exploration tool for practitioners and clients. It connects a measured or stated vocational interest pattern to candidate occupations and captures simple client preference signals so the next exploration steps are easier to narrow.

Tool guide
Learn more about this tool
Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
Preference Signals
Preference signals are exploratory and remain distinct from match logic; liking an occupation does not change why it appeared in the candidate set.
Important Limits
The tool does not guarantee fit, decide a career, assess qualifications, verify credentials, estimate hiring likelihood, or invent occupation data.
Known Validation Needs
Occupation data source, matching method, initial candidate set size, allowed preference labels, and whether clients can add occupations require validation.
Does this tool choose a career for the client?
No. It presents occupations worth considering and captures preferences for further exploration.
What input is required to generate candidates?
A supported vocational interest pattern is required; without it, the tool cannot generate a supported candidate set.
Can the client reject every option?
Yes. The tool preserves that preference data and supports revisiting the interest pattern or exploration criteria.
Are client preferences the same as match scores?
No. Preference signals are separate from the interest-pattern basis used to surface candidate occupations.
