Welcome
Mapademics Careers helps career-services teams take applicants from intake to coaching to matched job postings, all powered by skills.
Mapademics Careers
Mapademics Careers is the workspace where career-services teams move applicants from intake to coaching to a matched job. Resumes become structured profiles. Profiles get scored and coached. Profiles get matched against real postings — both the ones your team uploads and the ones Mapademics curates for your organization.
These docs are written for the staff inside an organization that uses Careers. If you work in career services, you're in the right place.
Who Careers is for
Careers is built for the staff inside an organization that helps people get hired — coaches, intake coordinators, program managers, and the teammates who set the workspace up. Every page in these docs is written from the staff perspective.
The applicants you serve never log in to Careers. They interact with two public surfaces — your Resume Upload Widget and the Skills Report you choose to share with them — both of which are documented from your perspective: here's what your applicant will see.
The three things you'll do
Most teams use Careers in three loops, often at the same time.
1. Intake
Get an applicant into Careers with a resume attached. Three paths:
- Add them yourself from the Applicants page.
- Embed the Resume Upload Widget on your website and let applicants self-submit.
- Bulk-upload a folder of resume PDFs.
When a resume lands, Careers extracts skills and structured sections automatically. See Adding applicants.
2. Coach
Open an applicant's profile and use what's there to run a session. The Resume & Skills tab shows every skill Careers identified, breakdowns by domain, and a Coaching & Evaluation view that scores the resume against seven dimensions and points at what to fix. Share the resulting Skills Report with the applicant when you're ready.
See The applicant profile and Coaching with the Skills Report.
3. Match
Careers continuously matches each applicant to real job postings — both jobs your team has uploaded and Public jobs Mapademics has curated for your organization. Every match comes with a percentage score, a per-skill breakdown, and labor-market context for the underlying occupation.
See Matching applicants to jobs.

A few key ideas
A handful of concepts come up across the whole product. Skim these and you'll have the vocabulary for everything else.
- Applicants and resumes. Each applicant has one or more resume versions; the active resume is the one Careers analyzes right now. See The applicant profile.
- Skills come from a shared library. Every skill on a resume, on a job, or in a Skills Report references the Mapademics Skills Library so comparisons stay meaningful. Levels follow a five-point scale — see Skill proficiency levels.
- Public vs Uploaded. Both jobs and employers split between a Mapademics-curated Public feed and Uploaded records your team adds. Jobs are split across two sidebar items — Uploaded Jobs and Public Jobs — while employers stay in one list with a Source column. The two behave differently. See Jobs — Public vs Uploaded.
- Coaching is opinionated. Every resume gets scored against seven coaching axes. The score and the per-axis feedback are the foundation of the Skills Report you share with applicants.
