Career Mapper
 Before
the Web, Texas Instruments had distributed software called Career
Mapper on diskettes to college students interested in employment
at TI. The purpose of the software is to match up preferences
and aptitudes with different kinds of careers based on answers
to over two hundred questions. Students would go through the questions
on the disketter, then send it back to TI for evaluation. We reimplemented
Career Mapper on the Web for TI. It has increased the availability
of the software to college students while dramatically cutting
costs and simplifying the process.
This implementation presents users with questions a page at a
time. It allows them to temporarily skip questions if they choose
but requires that all questions are eventually answered. And,
it does not require a TI to maintain a database of students and
their questionaires that are not yet complete. |
