Method and sources

This ranking compares tasks in occupation profiles. It does not predict job losses or describe your actual role.

The assessment

Explore possible uses of software AI, physical tasks and the role of human judgement. The index covers software AI only.

  • Software AI

    1 task in this group

    Tools can support finding technical information and drafting reports. A documentary clue alone does not confirm the cause of a fault.

  • Physical tasks

    26 tasks in this group

    Tasks performed in a real place involve physical constraints. This task group does not prove that a robot can carry them out.

  • Human judgement and relationships

    5 tasks in this group

    Listening to symptoms, reasoning and explaining to the customer connect measurements with the repair.

These groups help you explore the occupation's tasks. They do not prove that a tool can perform them: working conditions, equipment and responsibilities also matter.

What will still make a difference

Beyond the index, these practical situations can help you reflect on what you bring to work and the skills you want to develop.

In the work itself

Connect the clues

Relate reported symptoms, measurements and component condition before reaching a conclusion.

Carry out the repair

Work on the vehicle using appropriate tools and procedures.

Check and explain

Verify the result and make completed operations understandable.

In how you do it

Keep a critical eye

Replacing a suggested component without confirming the cause can leave the fault unresolved. Useful diagnosis connects information with verification.

Connect the tool to context

In your role, notice when you need to connect the clues. A useful response depends on available information and what you need to verify.

An assessment alone is not enough to move forward

Jobiwan does not decide for you: your coach helps you connect this analysis with your experience, identify what sets you apart and test it in the real world.

  1. Start with your reality

    Your own situations, compared with the occupation’s assessment.

  2. Identify what sets you apart

    What matters to you, already a strength or something to develop, never a score.

  3. Test it in the real world

    A concrete first step chosen with your coach, followed by feedback a few days later.

A few days later

Your coach checks back to ask what that first step changed, in a conversation at your pace.

Jobiwan does more than give you an assessment of your occupation: it helps you understand what it means for you.

That is the occupation on paper. What about your daily work?
