  • Strong understanding of digital, social, programmatic, and co-branded content, with familiarity with affiliate marketing.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with strong organization, attention to detail, and follow-through.
  • Demonstrated ability to build trusted client relationships and identify opportunities to grow existing and new business.
  • A proactive, entrepreneurial sales mindset with the ability to work independently and take ownership of results.
  • Ability to effectively manage multiple accounts, priorities, projects, and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

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.
