How do you learn about the ones you don't know exist? The first thing it asks is what I want to do, and I couldn't seem to get past it before getting tired of talking to a bot.

Me: I'm a software engineer.

GPT: That's great! What kind of career change are you looking for?

Me: Something that pays more

GPT: That's understandable. What kind of industry do you think would be suitable for your skills and experience?

Me: I'm not sure. What are my options?

GPT: There are a lot of options for you. You could look into industries such as finance, healthcare, technology, or even consulting. Each industry has its own unique job positions and opportunities that might be suitable for your skillset. What kind of job position do you think would best suit your experience?

Me: Well, technology of course

GPT: Great! There are a lot of different job positions in the technology industry that you can pursue. Some of these include software engineer, web developer, systems analyst, and more. Do any of these sound interesting to you?

Me: I'm already a software engineer...

I had the same problem, I wanted to explore careers and it kept asking me to define areas of interest and give it specifics. I just wanted to see careers I didn't know existed. Not careers that match my salary range and technical specifications.
Come here to comment this. I had similar experience.

If I want ideas about positions I don't know that exist, why is it asking what industries/jobs I'm exploring? This makes no sense.
