  • Relevant research experience, preferably with exposure to archival research, textual analysis, and the study of Chinese-language primary sources, and familiarity with standard software for data management and analysis;
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organisational skills, with strong self-motivation, a sense of responsibility, and attention to detail;
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks under tight deadlines and adapt to evolving project needs;
  • A commitment to quality education and research excellence, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment; and
  • Excellent command of written and spoken English and Chinese.

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.
