Local not-for-profit service provider genU has partnered with Australian developer Getmee to launch an AI-powered app to help jobseekers.
The genU Training AI app offers personalised coaching aimed at improving interview skills, professional communication and building confidence.
The app uses AI to identify a user’s individual progress, providing tips and advice to help them improve in key areas.
Chief executive of genU Clare Amies hailed the launch as a major gamechanger for jobseekers and employment service providers.
“genU Training AI will take training and employment outcomes to a whole new level, with this unique app and its exciting features,” Ms Amies said.
“This smart solution will deliver benefits for jobseekers and employment service providers, through enabling a more inclusive, supportive, and effective recruitment process.
“The app is accessible and user-friendly, making it an ideal resource for anyone looking to enhance their employability and learn at their own pace in their own time.”
The app, which includes support for people from linguistically diverse backgrounds, is free for genU’s Training U for Work students.
Nikki Noack, genU Training general manager, said the new app would augment genU staff members’ support of students.
“As users grow their skills, this will help remove a large part of the stress behind preparing
for a job interview, and they will have less anxiety during interviews,” Ms Noack said.
“We will strike a balance between this exciting AI to enhance the job seeker journey, while still maintaining the important human connection and engagement that remains paramount for success and achieving positive outcomes.”
