Data source & editorial method
How CareerFacet data works
Every profile is built from structured occupational data covering duties, skills, education, training, and experience.
CareerFacet is an independent educational site that organizes occupational information into reader-friendly profiles. The source material is based on O*NET data, then simplified into sections for duties, skills, education, job titles, and preparation details.
Profiles use available occupation descriptions, work activities, skills, job titles, education categories, training, and experience fields.
Raw tables are reorganized into plain sections so visitors can scan a career without needing to interpret source files.
The site is not official career advice and is not affiliated with O*NET. It is intended for general education and exploration.
For more detail, see the Data Method page before relying on a profile for major education or career decisions.

How to use CareerFacet
