The Frameworks
Built on Decades of Psychological Research
Big Five Personality Model (OCEAN)

Career interest theory matching personality types to occupational environments across 6 dimensions.

Holland's RIASEC
John L. Holland, 1959

Actuarial Modelling
Weibull Survival Analysis
CareerCast applies actuarial modelling techniques to synthesise framework outputs into a single Career Alignment Score. All frameworks referenced are used in accordance with their published research applications.
The Methodology
Precision Career Mapping Through Multi-Variable Analysis
CareerCast does not rely on single-trait scoring. The assessment uses a weighted multi-variable algorithm that cross-references your responses across all five frameworks simultaneously.
The AI interpretation layer applies natural language processing to translate your numeric profile into a human-readable career intelligence report, personalised to your unique combination of traits.
