Finding a job is becoming more difficult in the current day. This is due to the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and trends in the jobs that can be automated, or tasks that are doable by machines. If AI has a say in job displacement, we could also use it in the prediction of future jobs. This is an important exercise for young Africans studying in higher education institutions. In this paper, we have proposed an AI-powered career advisory system that uses real-time job market data, skills mapping, and predictive analytics to offer personalised guidance to students about jobs that are going extinct, relevant skills that will be relevant, and future prospects. This work employs design science research methodology, integrating user selection with AI algorithms to dynamically recommend career paths. Our evaluation by students highlights a 72% approval of their trust in the system, a 64% likelihood of recommendation to other users, and improved alignment of user skills with future job opportunities. The system shows significant potential to improve the readiness of the workforce and bridge the gaps between education and employment. This AI-driven approach can redefine career advisory systems, allowing students to adapt to the evolving job market and mitigate the risks of unemployment.
