LifeSkills

Everyday experience.
Skills worth recognising.

The meals you plan. The things you fix.
The people you help.

This tool helps you describe skills from things you do at home, for other people or in your community. An AI interviewer asks about your own examples, then puts them into a profile you can check.

Taking part in your own interview?

You need a personal invitation from your employment service or counsellor. Open the link they sent you; you do not need to create an account or bring a CV.

Lost your invitation? Ask the counsellor who sent it to you for a new link.

If you are taking the interview

  1. Open your invitation

    Use the personal link sent by your service. Choose your interview language, then “Text”, “Voice” or “Voice with avatar”. The page shows which options are available for your invitation and language.

  2. Talk about everyday tasks

    For example: preparing meals, looking after someone, fixing things or helping a local group. Tell the interviewer what you did yourself. It asks one question at a time; you do not need formal skills vocabulary.

  3. Check the descriptions

    At the end, read or listen to the suggested skills. Correct anything that sounds wrong, remove a description from your profile or finish with the information you have.

Choose how to answer

Available formats depend on your invitation, the chosen language and your service’s setup. Unavailable options show a reason.

Just want to try it?

Use the public demo without an invitation or sign-in. It is a short practice conversation, followed by a recap. It does not become a profile in your counsellor’s workspace.

What you get

You can download a copy. The service that invited you can read your saved conversation and profile to discuss them with you. These descriptions are not a qualification or a proficiency score.

If you get stuck

Say that you do not remember. In the written interview, “Help me remember” opens ideas near your answer. “Interview options” contains “Try another topic”, “Pause interview” and “Stop now”. “Finish & review” stays beside the remaining time. With voice, ask the interviewer for an idea. A paused interview continues from the same link.

What this tool explores

Practical experience outside a formal job title: care, household tasks, volunteering, learning and hobbies. The conversation looks for what you personally did and how you did it. It does not certify qualifications or assess you through a test.

How this tool works

Describe things you have done yourself. The AI interviewer asks follow-up questions and suggests skill descriptions based on your examples.

  1. Open your invitation

    Use the personal link sent by your service. Choose your interview language, then “Text”, “Voice” or “Voice with avatar”. The page shows which options are available for your invitation and language.

  2. Talk about everyday tasks

    For example: preparing meals, looking after someone, fixing things or helping a local group. Tell the interviewer what you did yourself. It asks one question at a time; you do not need formal skills vocabulary.

  3. Check the descriptions

    At the end, read or listen to the suggested skills. Correct anything that sounds wrong, remove a description from your profile or finish with the information you have.

  4. Keep your profile

    You can download a copy. The service that invited you can read your saved conversation and profile to discuss them with you. These descriptions are not a qualification or a proficiency score.

Stop, finish or remove

“Finish & review” ends the conversation and lets you check the descriptions. “Stop now” ends the interview straight away: what you said is saved, but you cannot continue. “Remove from profile” takes one description out of your profile; your words stay in the conversation.

If the link does not work

If the interview is open in another window, close that window and refresh this page. If the link has expired or no longer works, ask your counsellor for a new link; your saved answers are kept. If your invitation shows a telephone number, you can also take part by phone with your PIN.
