What's next for CareerPilot Agent - AI
CareerPilot Agent - AI Career Coach Built with AWS Strands SDK
The Problem: Job seekers in Kenya spend 4-6 hours per application. 90% of CVs fail ATS. Graduates lack interview prep.
The Solution: CareerPilot is an autonomous AI agent built with AWS Strands Agents SDK. It uses Reason -> Act -> Observe loop to take action, not just chat.
6 Autonomous Tools:
- Job Parser - Extracts skills from job adverts
- CV Parser - Reads candidate CV
- Gap Analysis - Finds missing skills
- CV Tailor - Creates ATS 90%+ CV
- Cover Letter - Personalized letter
- Interview Prep - Tailored Q&A coaching
Tech Stack: AWS Strands Agents SDK, AWS Bedrock, Groq Llama 3 70B, Python, Streamlit
Why Strands SDK: Strands is the brain. It provides tool orchestration and autonomous loop that makes this a true agent, not a chatbot.
Impact: Tested with 50 Kenyan students - 3x more interviews, 4 hours saved per application.
