The System

Tools inform. Path To Work moves you.

Most career tools give you information and leave you alone. Path To Work gives you a daily system that moves with you — from your first step to your first paycheck and beyond.

1 · Assess
5-minute assessment reveals your best career matches and hidden strengths — for free, no signup required.
2 · Plan
Get a simple 4-week action plan — real tasks you can do this week, not someday goals.
3 · Act
Complete daily tasks, build a streak, and check in weekly — so nothing derails your momentum before it starts.
4 · Prove It
Build an Ability Profile — verified proof of what you can do, not just what you claim on a resume.
5 · Build
Your resume auto-updates as you complete tasks and earn credentials. Always current, always ready.
6 · Match
Connect directly to entry-point employers and real opportunities — not job boards, real pipelines.
7 · Apply
Apply with your Ability Profile attached. Employers see proof, not just a name on a page.
8 · Grow
After hire, Path To Work keeps tracking progress — next cert, promotion, or pivot. The system never stops working for you.
Platform Features

Everything in one system

Unlike fragmented tools, Path To Work unifies every step of the career journey into a single, intelligent engine.

AI Skill Translator
Converts life experience into job skills. Military service → civilian leadership. Raised a family → project management, budgeting, conflict resolution. Gig driving → logistics, customer relations, time management.
Living Resume Builder
Auto-generated and constantly updated. Tailors itself to specific roles and includes credential verification and a skills-based profile that grows with every milestone you hit.
Decision Simulator
Real-world workplace scenarios with AI feedback on your reasoning and judgment. Builds the critical thinking that employers actually want in an AI-augmented world.
Social Intelligence Trainer
Communication simulations, conflict resolution practice, and workplace interaction coaching. The human skills that machines cannot replace — and employers pay more for.
Micro-Entrepreneur Engine
Generates business ideas from your unique skill profile, then walks you through startup execution step by step. Your skills can become your business — Path To Work shows you how.
Credential Wallet
Stores certifications, completed projects, and verified skills in a portable, shareable profile. Show employers proof — not just claims. Verifiable, employer-ready, and always yours.
Who We Help

Every background. Every starting point.

Path To Work was built from the ground up for people who've been overlooked, underestimated, or left behind — and are ready to change that.

Veterans & Military Spouses
You led people, managed logistics, made life-or-death decisions. Path To Work translates that into civilian language — and connects you to employers who get it.
Returning Citizens
A record shouldn't define your future. Path To Work focuses on skills, not history — and helps you build a verified profile employers trust.
Gig & Independent Workers
Driving, delivering, freelancing — that's real work. Path To Work helps you turn gig experience into a career path, with or without a traditional résumé.
People with Disabilities
Accessible by design. Path To Work meets you where you are — adapting the assessment experience to your needs, not the other way around.
New Grads & Career Changers
No experience? Wrong industry? Path To Work helps you identify what you already know, fill the gaps fast, and get in front of employers who value potential.
Caregivers Re-entering the Workforce
Raising a family is real work. Path To Work recognizes the skills it builds — planning, communication, crisis management — and helps you tell that story professionally.

From the Founder

"I got out of the Marine Corps after 8 years — 100% disabled, no civilian roadmap, no one to show me what came next. Every tool I found was either expensive, vague, or built for someone who already had their act together. I spent two years figuring it out the hard way.

I built Path To Work so nobody has to do that alone."

Reider Waage

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

Is Path To Work really free to start?
Yes — the full assessment, skill mapping, and 30-day career roadmap are completely free. No credit card, no trial period. The free tier is genuinely useful and designed to deliver real value on day one. Pro features (learning modules, job matching, credential wallet) are available for $29/month when you're ready to level up.
I don't have a degree or formal work history. Will this work for me?
That's exactly who Path To Work is built for. Our AI skill translator converts life experience into professional language — raising a family, serving in the military, driving for gig apps, or surviving incarceration all count. You don't need a résumé to start. We help you build one from scratch.
How does Path To Work help veterans specifically?
Veterans often carry high-value leadership, logistics, and technical skills that civilian employers don't recognize because the language is different. Path To Work translates MOS/AFSC codes and military experience into civilian job titles and skill categories, then matches you to veteran-friendly employers. We also flag GI Bill and VA Vocational Rehabilitation eligibility for funding your next step.
Can Path To Work help someone with a criminal record find work?
Yes. Our platform includes a ban-the-box employer filter so job seekers only see employers with fair-chance hiring policies. We also provide coaching on how to address your record in interviews — because employers who see past it often become the most loyal advocates for your success. Reentry support is core to our mission, not an afterthought. If you want to explore expungement or record clearing, check our free companion tool Path To Clean Slate.
My church wants to offer this to our congregation. How does that work?
We offer sliding-scale organizational licensing for faith communities and nonprofits. A church license gives your ministry coordinator a simple dashboard to track members' progress, assign assessments, and see employment outcomes — without needing any technical knowledge. Contact us at pathtoworkadmin@gmail.com or call (408) 658-9222 and we'll set up a free pilot for your congregation.
We're a workforce development org / school / nonprofit. What does a B2B license include?
An organizational license includes: unlimited user access, an admin dashboard with WIOA-compatible outcome reporting, custom branding, and a dedicated onboarding call. Pricing scales with your organization's size — starting at $299/month for smaller nonprofits and custom-quoted for government agencies. Email us or call (408) 658-9222 to start a no-commitment pilot.
How is Path To Work different from LinkedIn, Indeed, or CareerBuilder?
Those platforms assume you already know what you want and how to present yourself. Path To Work starts upstream — before you know what job to apply for. We help you figure out what you're actually good at, what careers match your situation and constraints, and how to package your experience for employers. It's a navigation system, not a job board.
When does Path To Work launch? What happens after I join the waitlist?
The full assessment, roadmap, and resume builder are live right now — no signup required. Full platform access (job matching, credential wallet, learning modules) is launching for waitlist members first. When you join, you'll get an early access invite, founding member pricing (locked in for life), and a personal onboarding call with the team. No spam, ever — just the launch email when it's time.
