  • Analyze garment samples for fit, specifications, and shape, creating accurate specs and identifying areas for improvement.
  • Design and develop patterns from initial concepts, ensuring consistency with fit principles and material usage for optimal yield.
  • Fit garments on models, recommend corrections to designers, and coordinate with sample makers to resolve any issues.
  • Identify and communicate styling and fit concerns to buyers.
  • Develop and implement standardized grading rules for consistent fit across all apparel lines.
  • Consult and train marketing, design, and product development teams on pattern construction, fit updates, and problem-solving techniques.

  • Knowledge of 2D and 3D CAD or PDM software packages (e.g., Gerber, Lectra).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
