Each question includes context explaining why it's being asked, helping you understand the AI's thinking. ### Answering Questions  **Question Format:** Most questions come with **AI-generated multiple-choice options** tailored to your profile. You can: - **Select one or more options** using checkboxes. Multiple selections are allowed since career preferences are rarely black and white. - **Use the "Other" option** to add your own free-text response when none of the provided choices fully capture your thinking. Click the "Other" checkbox to expand a text area. - **Combine both** by selecting some of the predefined options and adding additional context via "Other." Some questions (typically at the end of a section) may be open-ended with only a free-text area, allowing you to share anything else on your mind. Your answers are **saved automatically** when you click away from a question. **Tips for Good Answers:** - Be honest. This data helps you, not evaluators - Thin
