Still at school
Use their work interests to explore subject choices and identify work experience that could provide useful exposure.
For Parents and Individuals
Built for better conversations
When your young person doesn't know what comes next, Work Sync gives them an easier place to begin: discovering the kinds of work that interest them and seeing where those interests could lead.
“What do you want to do?”
It sounds like a simple question.
But for many young people, it's almost impossible to answer.
They might know about only a small number of occupations. They might have little idea what different jobs actually involve. Yet they're expected to make decisions about subjects, work experience, further study, training, jobs and what comes next.
Parents and carers want to help, but when the only answer they hear is “I don't know”, it's hard to know where to begin.
Start with a question they can answer
Work Sync begins with work interests, not occupations.
Young people watch short videos showing activities across a broad range of work domains and respond to one simple question: “Does this interest you?”
It's a simple, low-pressure first step that doesn't depend on knowing job titles, having a career in mind or working through a text-heavy questionnaire.
Why their work interests matter
Before young people can decide where they could go, they need a way to understand the kinds of work that are likely to hold their interest.
Work interests are more than favourite subjects or hobbies. They reveal patterns in the kinds of work activities a person is drawn to, whether that involves solving technical problems, helping people, creating things, organising information, working with animals, or building and fixing things.
When work involves activities that genuinely interest someone, they're more likely to invest their time, energy and effort in it.
Recognising these patterns builds self-awareness and gives them a stronger basis for exploring future directions.
From interests to real work possibilities
- Discover
See different kinds of work in action
They watch short videos showing different work activities, broadening their understanding of the world of work as they respond to what interests them.
There's no need to know job titles or have a career in mind.
- Align
See the patterns in their interests
Their responses come together in a personalised Work Interest Summary.
This helps them see patterns in the kinds of work that attract them, as well as the activities that hold less interest.
- Navigate
See where their interests could lead
Wayfinder connects their work interests with real occupations.
They can investigate possibilities, compare options and save occupations they'd like to explore further.
What I really liked was how easy my son found Work Sync to use and how engaged he was with it. He was surprised by how many options there were, including jobs he'd never heard of, and felt it gave him a really good starting point for thinking about what he might do next.”
Help them find a direction worth exploring
Give your young person a structured way to understand their work interests, broaden their knowledge of the world of work and explore where those interests could lead.

Knowledge they can build on at every stage
Work Sync isn't a one-off report. They can return as their thinking develops, revisit their interests, continue building their understanding of the world of work and refine the possibilities they want to investigate.
Preparing to leave school
Investigate further study, training, apprenticeships and early jobs connected with the kinds of work they find interesting.
Finding direction after school
Explore occupations, compare possibilities and reconsider earlier choices when they're still unsure or when their direction changes.
A shared language for better conversations
Work Sync gives young people a structured way to recognise and describe the kinds of work that interest them.
That shared language gives them, their parents and the people supporting them a clearer basis for exploring what could come next.
Grounded in vocational psychology, Work Sync organises the world of work into eight broad Work Themes and 24 more specific Work Domains.
The patterns they discover become the foundation for exploring occupations through Wayfinder.
This gives conversations a practical structure: what interests them, which possibilities are worth investigating and what they could explore next.
