Qualifications:

  • Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or similar education
  • Extensive professional experience designing, developing, and maintaining complex, production-grade software
  • Strong object-oriented C++ programming skills
  • Familiarity with a cross-platform software framework such as Qt or JUCE

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.
