Inspiration
Career changers need to understand what a role actually demands before committing to it.
What it does
find yourjob turns a resume and career interests into role recommendations and a Study Road with milestones, a weekly schedule, daily assignments, and evidence criteria. DeepSeek generates the recommendations and plan. PayPal Sandbox Subscriptions controls access to the member plan. We tested buyer approval, the return to the app, subscription verification, and opening My plan.
How we built it
A JavaScript interface and Node.js service connect DeepSeek, Adzuna job listings, and PayPal Sandbox on Render. The server verifies the subscription before unlocking member features.
Challenges and lessons
We separated the PayPal browser redirect from server-side subscription verification and tested recovery across restarts. Role-specific deliverables make a learning plan easier to act on.
Try it
Open the hosted demo and choose a role, then open Study Road. The public repository contains setup instructions. Use a PayPal Sandbox Personal account for test checkout.
