  • Superior analytical and mathematical prowess to interpret project specifics, conduct evaluations, and compute quantities and expenses.
  • Effective conversational and negotiation capabilities for interaction with internal groups, clients, vendors, and secondary contractors.
  • Rigorous attention to precision and exactness in estimating, budgeting, and cost projections.
  • Autonomy in operations, capacity to oversee multiple tasks concurrently, and commitment to deadlines.
  • Proficiency in MS Office tools, including Excel, Word, and Outlook.

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.
