Abstract

In today's rapidly evolving job market, accurately understanding and predicting a student’s career trajectory is of paramount importance [1]. This study aims to forecast the future career paths of students by leveraging a combination of their academic performance—specifically college CGPA—and their assessed skills, which are increasingly vital in the modern, competitive employment landscape. By integrating historical job placement data, the proposed system evaluates whether a student's profile aligns with the types of companies where graduates are most likely to secure employment [4]. Furthermore, it goes beyond mere placement prediction by identifying the specific roles and responsibilities that suit individual students based on their performance and competencies. A key objective of this work is to bridge the gap between student preparedness and industry expectations. To that end, the system offers personalized guidance on the future skills that students should develop to meet evolving industrial demands. This personalized information is delivered in a secure and confidential manner, ensuring privacy and trust
