π― Purpose
As uConnect prepares to launch AI Search (Spring 2026), the richness and structure of your Virtual Career Center will directly shape the student experience.
AI Search illuminates what already exists. It does not create content.
This exercise helps you:
Identify content type gaps
Improve content density and discoverability
Align platform content with institutional strategic priorities
Surface opportunities where additional modules may strengthen your ecosystem
Shift focus from design polish β to content strength
Content Types to Evaluate
When running your analysis, scan for these structured content types:
Blogs
Classes / Courses / Skill Building Courses / Workshops
People (Alumni / Mentors)
Organizations (Professional / Student)
Labor Market Insights
Outcomes
Experiences
Identity & Affinity Content (Curation Kits)
Jobs / Internships
Employers / Companies / Sponsors
Events
Resources
How to Use These Prompts
Option 1 β Segment Your Analysis
