The posting

Please note: This is not an active vacancy. We are building a talent pool for future opportunities in this area. If you're interested in being considered when a role becomes available, we'd love to hear from you.

The Centre for Information Resilience (CIR) is an independent organisation dedicated to exposing human rights violations and threats to democracy. We achieve this through open source research, digital investigations, capacity-building with local partners, and collaboration with media to amplify our impact.

CIR was born out of a determination to expose those spreading harm – online and offline – around the world, particularly in areas of violent conflict, such as Ukraine, Sudan and Myanmar. Our projects are at the forefront of efforts to investigate and document human rights abuses, war crimes, harms targeting women and minorities, and influence operations. We work closely with multilateral and national justice accountability bodies.

We're always looking to connect with experienced investigators who specialise in collecting, analysing, and interpreting open-source data to generate actionable intelligence. Whether you're currently working in the private sector, law enforcement, journalism, or national security, we want to hear from you.

Joining our talent pool means you'll be among the first to hear when relevant opportunities arise. While there is no guarantee of a position, our talent community is the first place we look when hiring.

A candidate’s guide to artificial intelligence (AI) in recruitment at CIR

CIR does not use artificial intelligence (AI) or automated decision-making tools at any stage of its recruitment process. All applications are reviewed, and decisions are made, by trained members of staff.

When applying for a role, please do use AI for:

  • Plan your ideas and thoughts
  • Check the spelling and grammar of your CV and cover letter
  • Research CIR
  • Generate mock interview questions for you to practice before your interview
  • Use AI as a support tool, not as a substitute for your own thinking or judgement

Don’t use AI to:

  • Invent or misrepresent your skills and experience
  • Complete any tests provided by CIR
  • Assist you during an interview to help answer the questions being asked by the panel

Declaration: By submitting this application, you confirm this represents your own work and experience. Misuse of AI may result in your application being withdrawn from the process.

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.
