  • Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and Google Workspace, especially Excel and PowerPoint.
  • Strong ability to translate complex data into clear insights, narratives, and decision-support recommendations.
  • Experience creating client-ready visualizations, presentations, and analytical storytelling.
  • Ability to manage multiple analytical workstream components with strong attention to detail and quality control.
  • Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity while balancing analytical rigor, speed, and client context.

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.
