A labour market being born. A platform built for it.

Platform / Saudi Arabia

In short

In Saudi Arabia, hundreds of thousands of young people are entering the job market, without the familiarity with applications that Western markets take for granted.

Built: a platform where students create a CV via AI chat, share their profile, and get discovered. Employers post roles and filter with intent.

Stack: React, JavaScript, Supabase, OpenAI API.

The context

Saudi Arabia is in the middle of an economic shift. Under Vision 2030, more Saudis are meant to move into the private sector. That means a whole generation of young people is applying for the first time: for jobs, internships, opportunities.

The problem is not a lack of ambition. It is a lack of system. Setting up a LinkedIn profile, building a CV, introducing yourself to employers: that assumes experience many of these students do not yet have. If you have never written a CV, you often do not know where to start, what belongs in it, or how to present yourself.

An empty form does not help.

What was built

A platform in two parts: for students, and for employers.

The student side

After signing up, users create a profile first: photo, cover image, contact details, links to existing social profiles. Familiar territory.

What is new: the CV builder. Instead of a form full of empty fields, the student starts a chat. An AI, connected via OpenAI, walks them through the whole process. It asks about school leavers, education steps, internships, interests, where they imagine working. Step by step, in plain language, without jargon that intimidates.

The result is a complete profile the student could not have built alone, at least not without hours of research into what even belongs in a CV.

That profile can be shared publicly. It is not just a document; it is a page. A shareable presence of its own.

The employer side

Companies can post internships and jobs on the platform. They can filter students by qualifications, interests, education level, and reach out directly. No stacks of CVs by email, but a structured marketplace where both sides find what they need.

Built with React, JavaScript, and Supabase on the backend. AI wired through the OpenAI API.

What makes it different

Many platforms structure CVs. What sets this project apart is the barrier to entry.

The AI chat is not a gimmick. It is the key for an audience that cannot work with blank forms. If you have never written a CV, you do not need a slightly better form. You need someone to guide you through conversation.

That is the difference between a platform that exists and a platform built for its users.

What this shows

Not every AI feature earns its place. This one does. It solves a concrete problem for a concrete audience in a way that would be much harder without AI.

The project also shows what it means to build both sides of a marketplace. Students and employers each need a reason to show up. A one sided product is not a product. Shipping both together is the real challenge.

Have an idea for a product that brings two or more user groups together? 30 minutes is enough to see whether and how it can be built.
