Profesii.info – pioneering career guidance platform for Bulgarian students featuring an AI-powered career chatbot

Profesii.info is a pioneering online platform designed to support Bulgarian students in making informed and personalized career decisions during key educational transitions. Freely accessible in Bulgarian, it targets secondary school students, especially those choosing an educational or career track in 7th and 10th grade or considering university study options.

A standout feature of the platform is its AI-based career chatbot—the first of its kind in Bulgaria. Powered by ChatGPT and specially trained for this purpose, the chatbot provides real-time, tailored support to students, parents, and teachers. It offers relevant information and personalised suggestions based on users’ preferences, making career guidance more interactive and approachable.

Profesii.info integrates a rich set of tools, including:

• A Career Interests Test based on Holland’s RIASEC codes, helping students discover suitable career paths based on their personality and interests.
• A career-matching test that connects users to over 120 detailed job profiles presented through real-life career stories. Students answer the same questionnaire as professionals and receive personalised career suggestions that closely align with their preferences.
• A university majors matching tool, linking students to the most suitable of 140 academic programmes across 52 fields, enriched with data from the Bulgarian National University Ranking System.
• Six self-assessment tests evaluating social, digital, career, and green competences.
• Up-to-date insights on labour market trends and in-demand future skills.

By combining psychological profiling with real-world labour market data and personal preferences, Profesii.info empowers young users to better understand themselves and take confident, well-informed steps toward their future. The platform’s interactive approach to self-assessment and tailored guidance significantly enhances accessibility and clarity for students of diverse backgrounds.

Beyond individual recommendations, the platform connects users with detailed information about relevant educational institutions, courses, and certifications. Entirely free to use, Profesii.info is especially valuable for young people from all regions of Bulgaria.

Since its launch, the platform has attracted over 5,000 unique visitors and earned several prestigious recognitions, including awards from the Council of Women in Business in Bulgaria, the Computer Space International Competition, and BG Site.
