Simple Things / Careers assistant
A careers assistant that actually talks like you.
Candidates ask real questions. Give them a conversation grounded in approved careers content—not another menu with three buttons.
The useful difference
Let candidates ask.
Answer plainly. Admit when the approved content does not contain the answer. Offer a human route when it matters. Then learn from what candidates keep asking.
Working demonstrations
See the conversation find a useful direction.
These are edited playbacks of conversations run against two independent demonstration sites using public careers content. They show the interaction pattern—not live vacancies or client endorsements.

From “animals” to a store-career direction.
The assistant asks for context, avoids assuming grooming experience and connects customer-facing strengths with a plausible role direction.
Recorded 16 July 2026 and edited for length. Independent demonstration; not affiliated with or endorsed by the organisations represented.

A controlled two-week pilot
Evidence before a production decision.
The pilot turns one real content area into a configured demonstration your reviewers can question, correct and evaluate.
- 01
Scope the question
Agree the content area, tone owner, human route, reviewers and one useful measure.
- 02
Build the source
Prepare approved roles, FAQs, values and benefits. Define voice, boundaries and unknown-answer behaviour.
- 03
Test the edges
Exercise representative questions, off-corpus prompts, misuse, outage and escalation before review.
- 04
Make the decision
Receive the demonstration, corrections and evaluation report. Continue only with evidence and agreed production controls.
A deliberate boundary
Careers guidance—not hiring decisions.
A useful assistant stays inside approved content, says when it does not know and hands sensitive questions to a named human route.
Designed for
- Careers and recruitment teams
- Employer-brand content
- Public roles, benefits and FAQs
- Named brand, HR/legal and web reviewers
Not included by default
- Applicant-status access
- Candidate scoring
- Hiring decisions
- Unreviewed employment advice
Engagement
Start small. Carry the work forward.
The pilot produces something tangible. If you continue, its cost is credited against production under the agreed proposal.
