Where you are, where you want to go, and how to get there

1,016 occupations from O*NET 31.0 data, linked by the skills they rate, the software they use and BLS wages for 585 places (May 2025).

Or start from an example:

1 Where you are

Your job's pay where you live, the similar jobs one skill away, the similar jobs that pay more there, and the places your job concentrates. Any of them can become your goal.

2 Where you want to go

The job you want: its pay next to yours, how close it is to your job by our similarity measure, how much more preparation it asks for, and where it is common.

3 How you get there

The stepping stones between the two jobs, the experience, education and training each needs, up to five skill and knowledge gaps, and the software to learn.

Or ask one question

If a title or place matches more than one occupation or area, you choose. Similarity, "one skill away" and the skill gaps are our definitions; here is how they work.
