  • Create clear CMF specifications and visual guidelines that support production
  • Partner with Industrial Design, Engineering, and suppliers to check design feasibility and manufacturability
  • Present design ideas and rationale to team members and stakeholders, and take feedback to refine your work
  • Explore sustainable and eco-friendly material options as part of your everyday design decisions

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.
