Career simulators: decide if a role fits you in 60 minutes
Want to change careers but afraid to make the wrong call? Instead of long courses and risky moves, try the role in a safe environment first. Here’s how simulators help you quickly get the “feel of the job” and make a confident decision.

We help you try on careers through realistic simulations — fast and safe.
Why 60 minutes is enough to filter out bad fits
Your first impression of a career comes from the type of tasks, the pace, and the level of collaboration — not lectures. A short simulator session shows what you actually do, how decisions are made, and how much people interaction the role requires.
- Real tasks: snippets of authentic cases instead of abstractions.
- Feedback: guidance and criteria like working with a mentor.
- Safe mistakes: experiment without risks to your career.
What you’ll learn in one hour
Does the day-to-day fit?
- • Which tasks dominate: analysis, creativity, negotiations?
- • What’s the balance of autonomy vs. teamwork?
- • Do you enjoy the speed and ambiguity?
Do your skills match?
- • Which competencies come naturally?
- • What needs upskilling and how long will it take?
- • What are the role’s success metrics — and are they comfortable to you?
