How we handle your facts

When you add information about yourself to Careerspan, we want to make sure it's organized, accurate, and useful for your career goals. Here's what happens behind the scenes and why.

Step 1: Understanding and improving your input

When you type something like "I can eat 10 pizzas in one sitting," our AI first converts this into a clear, structured fact. It might become: "User can eat 10 pizzas in one sitting."

We convert your input into clear, structured facts and rephrase them to be more professional:

Why facts might look different

We might rephrase your facts to be clearer and more professional. For instance:

  • You write: "I'm really good with Excel and stuff."

  • We save: "Proficient in Microsoft Excel."

Step 2: Checking for conflicts

Next, we compare your new fact with everything we already know about you. This is important because:

  • Avoiding duplicates: If you previously said "I can eat 9 pizzas," we'll update this to the more recent information.

  • Resolving conflicts: If you once said you were vegetarian but now mention eating pepperoni pizza, we'll note this change.

  • Combining related facts: Multiple food-related facts might be grouped together for clarity.


We compare your new fact with everything we already know about you, then organize it appropriately:

Step 3: Smart organization

Finally, we determine where this fact belongs.

For example:

  • "I took financial modeling courses" → Skills section

  • "I love cooking" → Hobbies section

  • "I have a Master's degree" → Education section

Final organization

When new information contradicts old information, we keep your profile accurate by:

  1. Updating outdated facts with your latest input.

  2. Merging similar facts to avoid repetition.

  3. Keeping the most recent and specific version.


This system ensures your profile is consistent across all applications, companies see clear professional information about you, and your career story is coherent and compelling.
