Career Readout

One wrong move can cost you three years of career.

Career Readout is a career intelligence report built from your CV: how recruiters read you, whether to stay or move, and a 30/60/90 day plan.

Most professionals do not lose their careers to a bad decision. They lose them to a slow one: eighteen months of waiting for a promotion that was never budgeted, in a market that repriced their skills without telling them.

The 3am problem

You already know something is off. You just cannot name it, price it, or plan around it.

Career Readout reads your CV the way a recruiter does, looks for the retention tactics your employer may be using on you, and turns it all into a ten-chapter report with a 30/60/90 day action plan, your two futures at 6, 12 and 24 months and your AI exposure. Whether the plan is to leave, or to take leverage and stay.

The price of clarity

A career coach bills you by the hour to ask how you feel about your job.

Career Readout returns the diagnosis, the plan and an ATS-ready CV to act on it, for $19. Once.

It is 11pm and you are googling “should I quit my job” again.

That is not indecision.

That is missing intelligence.

Which one are you? Most people who find us fit one of three situations. Pick the one that stings. Your report starts from that situation, not from a generic template.

Retention trap: editorial illustration

What you tell yourself

“They told me I'm next in line. I should wait for the next cycle.”

What is really happening

“Next in line” is the cheapest retention tool there is. It costs your employer nothing, has no date, and buys them two more cycles of discounted work.

Where your report starts

The report checks your situation against the known retention tactics, tells you which ones apply, and turns the promise into a dated request you can make.

Your next move deserves
evidence, not a hunch.

Ten chapters, a 30/60/90 day action plan, your two futures at 6, 12 and 24 months, your AI exposure task by task, an ATS-ready CV and a spoken briefing. All built from your own CV and the market.

Not a chatbot answer. A report you can act on.

Every chapter exists to answer one question you cannot answer alone.

Executive Summary

The question

Where do I really stand?

A direct assessment of your situation, how hard the transition really is, and the highest-priority moves.

You leave with

A clear verdict and your three highest-priority moves.

Plus, in audio

Hear your verdict.

A 7 minute spoken briefing of your verdict, your odds and your three highest-leverage moves, for the walk or the commute.

Included with your report

Same purchase: 30/60/90 day action plan, your two futures at 6, 12 and 24 months, ATS-ready Harvard-style CV and a PDF you keep.

Written about you.
Checked against you.

Your name, your employer and your own lines come straight from your CV. If a quote is not in your CV, it does not make the report.

Every hard claim shows where it comes from.

  • From your CV

    A line quoted word for word from what you sent.

  • From the market

    A finding from the market research for your role.

  • You told us

    Something you stated in your answers.

  • Our estimate

    Our judgement, labelled as judgement.

How we know: sources, labels and limits

Two futures

See both futures before you choose one.

The stay path and the move path, side by side at 6, 12 and 24 months, with a milestone and the main risk at each point, and the moment where the two split. They are scenarios, labelled as our estimate.

  1. 6months
  2. 12months
  3. 24months

AI exposure

Is AI coming for your role? Task by task.

Not a headline about your job title. Each task of your role is marked, with why and what to do about it. A source link appears when there is one, and the rest is marked as our estimate.

  • Automates
  • Shares with AI
  • Stays human

Decision rules

Know when to change course.

Dated checkpoints with a measurable signal. Each one says what to do if you hit it and what to do if you do not.

Example

Day 45: two first-round interviews for the target title.

If met: keep the plan and raise the target.

If not: the CV is the problem, go back to the proof.

Where you land best

Stop applying everywhere.

The kinds of employer where your evidence counts most, the job titles to search, and search strings ready to paste.

Example search"design lead" AND (B2B OR SaaS) AND remote

Proof briefs

Two things to build.

A brief for each of your two strongest proof pieces: what to build, the scope, what done looks like, and how to present it in ten seconds.

The case against our answer

We argue with our own verdict.

One paragraph with the strongest argument against what we told you, what would change our answer, and the checkpoints that test it. You decide with both sides on the page.

Words you can use

The script, the objections, the profile.

  • Negotiation scriptLines to say when the number comes up.
  • ObjectionsThe doubts you will face, with an honest answer.
  • LinkedInA headline and About written from your evidence.

Signal over advice.

A chatbot tells you to network more. A coach bills you by the hour to reach the same sentence slower. Neither tells you what a hiring decision actually responds to.

What you will not find here

  • “Update your LinkedIn.”
  • “Network more.”
  • “Take a course.”
  • “Believe in yourself.”
  • A template CV with your name on it.
  • Advice that fits anyone.

If it could be sent to anyone, it is not in your report.

What you get instead

Every recommendation has to produce something a hiring manager can see.

  • A shipped piece of workSomething a recruiter can open, use and judge.
  • A leadership proofEvidence you owned a decision and carried others through it.
  • A public case studyYour thinking and your result, visible to the people who hire.
  • A measurable outcomeA business number with your name on the cause.

Reality Check / sample excerpt

“Recruiters will file you as a strong implementer. Nothing on this CV proves you made the decisions.”

Illustrative sample data, not a real person.

Why not just ask a chatbot, or a coach?

One answers fast and generic. The other answers slow and expensive. Career Readout answers specifically, once.

Free advice is easy. Specific advice is the product.
