In a normal week, how much of your work has the same shape as the week before?

Almost all of it — same steps, same templates, same cadence.

Most of it, with the occasional exception.

About half routine, half problems I haven't seen before.

Little of it — most weeks bring something genuinely new.

If you wrote a perfect step-by-step procedure for your job, how much of it could a careful stranger then do?

Nearly all of it — the procedure is basically the job.

Most of it, once they learned the systems.

Some of it; the hard parts would still defeat them.

Very little — writing the procedure is itself most of the skill.

Where does your work physically happen?

Entirely on a screen — documents, spreadsheets, tickets, messages.

Mostly on a screen, with calls and meetings around it.

A real mix of screen work and being somewhere in person.

Substantially physical, on-site or hands-on.

How much of your effectiveness rests on relationships that took years to build?

Almost none — my work would transfer to a stranger intact.

A little; knowing people helps but isn't the job.

Quite a lot — a replacement would need a long runway.

Almost everything — the relationships essentially are the role.

When a decision in your area goes badly wrong, who actually carries it?

Nobody specific — I execute decisions made elsewhere.

Me, by name, in front of people who matter.

How often does your job require changing the mind of someone who does not want it changed?

Most weeks — it's a core part of what I'm paid for.

How much of what makes you good at this job is written down somewhere?

Nearly all of it — there's a manual and I follow it.

A good amount, plus some things you pick up.

Some, but the valuable part lives in experience.

Almost none — it's judgment built case by case.

How often do you make calls where the information is incomplete and reasonable people would disagree?

Rarely — there's usually a right answer to look up.

Regularly — ambiguity is normal in my work.

Constantly — resolving ambiguity is the job.

How much does doing your job well depend on knowing this specific organisation, market or client base?

Barely — the skill is generic and portable.

Somewhat; context speeds me up.

Substantially — an outsider would misjudge things.

Almost entirely — the context is the expertise.

How often do you use AI tools in your actual work, not as an experiment?

Never, or I've only tried it once or twice.

Occasionally, for small things.

Daily — and I've changed how my work is organised around it.

The last time your role changed substantially, how did it go?

Badly — I resisted it and it was a rough stretch.

Slowly; I got there but it took a while.

Fine — I adjusted without much drama.

If a tool arrived next month that did 40% of your current work, what would you realistically do?

Hope it doesn't get adopted here.

Wait and see what my employer decides.

Learn it quickly and keep my output up.

Learn it, then redesign my role around the freed-up 40%.

Where are you right now?

Self-employed, freelance or running my own thing

Which is closest to your field?

Healthcare, education or care work

Are You AI-Proof? The AI Career Risk Scorecard

Twelve questions, about four minutes. Not "will AI replace your job title" — titles are a bad unit of analysis. This scores the work you actually do across four dimensions that decide how exposed it is.

Task Texture — how repeatable the shape of your week is
Human Stakes — trust, persuasion and accountability that sit with a person
Context & Judgment — calls you make that aren't written down anywhere
AI Fluency — whether you're already the one using the tools

You'll get a resilience score out of 36, a radar of the four dimensions, your weakest one, and the specific move that closes it. Exposure is not destiny: the lowest dimension is the one worth working on, and it is usually learnable.

This is a self-assessment for career planning, not a prediction about any individual job.
