  • Building positive and effective relationships with individuals, carers, families, advocates, and support networks.
  • Undertaking direct work and interventions that promote empowerment, resilience, independence, and community inclusion.
  • Supporting individuals experiencing significant life changes, deterioration in health, crisis situations, or changes in care arrangements.
  • Advocating on behalf of individuals to ensure their wishes, views, and rights remain central to decision-making.
  • Working collaboratively with health services, housing providers, education services, voluntary organisations, and community resources to improve outcomes.

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.
