Free employment support, when you actually need it.
Career Access — 24/7 AI Employment Navigator helps you compare your CV with real vacancies, create an ATS-friendly application, prepare for interviews and find trusted employment information and signposting. Free for individual jobseekers.
We are building this now. Career Access is not yet a finished public service. Register your interest if you would like to be invited to a pilot when a version is ready to test.
For people who need more than generic job-search advice.
Career Access is being designed around real employment barriers, including disrupted careers, limited UK labour-market experience, caring responsibilities, low confidence, language barriers and the practical pressure of applying for work without support on hand.
Focused on the employment tasks people need most.
CV to vacancy matching
Paste a real job advert and compare it with your existing CV. See where your experience matches and where stronger evidence may be needed.
ATS-friendly CV tailoring
Tailor your CV around a real vacancy using relevant skills, evidence and terminology while keeping your genuine experience at the centre.
Application support
Work through cover letters, supporting statements and application questions with guidance linked to the role you are applying for.
Interview preparation
Practise questions based on the actual vacancy, build STAR examples and prepare for the conversation before the real interview.
Employment information
Find general employment information and trusted sources when questions come up. Career Access is being designed to use authoritative sources such as GOV.UK and ACAS where appropriate.
Signposting to human help
Some situations need a person, not an AI answer. Career Access is designed to help users identify when further professional, community or specialist support may be appropriate.
Career Access supports Employment Advisers. It does not replace them.
Employment support often happens at a scheduled time. Vacancies, interview invitations and workplace questions do not.
Career Access is being developed to extend practical support between appointments while keeping clear boundaries around situations that need human judgement, safeguarding, specialist help or professional advice.
In Somerset, Career Runway by CulturaLinks provides personalised employability support with CVs, applications, interviews and the move into work. Career Runway is the first real-world environment where Career Access is being tested and improved.

Career Access provides digital support when the next step cannot wait for the next appointment.
Interested in extending employment support beyond appointments?
Career Access is being developed not only as a free tool for individual jobseekers, but as digital employment infrastructure that can complement adviser-led services.
CulturaLinks is interested in conversations with councils, employability providers, colleges, housing associations, community organisations and other public or third-sector partners around pilots, co-design, evaluation and responsible use of AI in employment support.
