Left empty

A path that splits into two named tracks, long stage titles and no timing. Checks the fork appears only where described, titles stay verbatim, and no durations or salaries are filled in.

Same task, three directions

Pick a direction to start from.

01

Rising steps

Stages climb from left to right like a staircase, with the skills written on each step.

02

Transit line

Each stage is a station on one colored line. Works well when the path branches into two tracks.

03

Portrait ladder

A tall layout for a careers page or a mentoring handout, first stage at the bottom.

What the template keeps

The parts that stay consistent.

01

Stage order

Stages always run in the sequence you give, so the path reads as progression.

02

Skills beside their stage

Each skill list stays attached to its node instead of floating in a separate legend.

03

No promises

The graphic shows a route, not an outcome, so nothing suggests a guaranteed promotion or pay.

How to use it

From details to a result.

  1. 01

    Name the path

    Give the role family or team a title. It becomes the heading of the image.

  2. 02

    List the stages in order

    One stage per line, starting with the entry point. Describe a branch in the stage name if the path splits.

  3. 03

    Add skills for each stage

    Start each line with the stage title, then two to four skills. That is how skills are matched to the right node.

  4. 04

    Review, generate and compare

    Send the brief from Vizify when it looks right, then check each title and skill against your list before sharing.

Output boundaries

What to check before you use it.

  • Stage titles and skills are drawn as text inside the image and can come back misspelled or out of order. Check each against your list.
  • Three to six stages fit on one image. A full competency framework needs several images or a document.
  • It shows the path you describe, not a forecast. No salaries, guarantees or success rates are added.
  • Branches appear only where you describe them. A detailed org-wide job architecture is better as a structured diagram.
  • The result is one flat image, not an editable diagram, and the format is an aspect-ratio direction.
Questions
Can a career infographic show two possible routes?

Yes. Name the branches in your stage list, for example a technical track and a management track, and the fork is drawn only at that point.

Can I include pay bands or salaries?

Only if you type them yourself in the additional direction, exactly as your HR team has approved them. The template never estimates or suggests pay.

What makes good career infographic examples for a team wiki?

Short stage titles, two to four concrete skills per stage and an honest note that timing varies. Readers skim, so fewer words per stage work better.

Can students use it to explore careers?

Yes, if they take the stages from a careers adviser or a source they trust. The template does not research entry requirements or qualifications.
