A five-minute career interview

Your career is four questions. Most advice only answers one.

What you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. Work that holds all four is what the Japanese-inspired Ikigai diagram puts at the center. The interview finds which circles you're standing in — and the smallest honest move toward the middle.

Answer twelve quick questionsGut answers, not LinkedIn answers. No typing, just taps.

Your interview verdict

The four circles

Where you're standing on the map

Solid circles are ones you hold; dashed circles are the gaps. The dot is you.

The move ladder

Eight moves, cheapest first

Every career move costs something — money, risk, or identity. The ladder is ordered by that cost, and the rule is simple: never pay for a bigger move than your gap requires. Moves above yours aren't wrong; they're just not yet.

Circle by circle

The honest breakdown

Each circle scored from your three answers about it. Six is lit; zero is dark.
