The RA may be involved in one or more projects depending on research needs.

  • Good writing, presentation and communication skills
  • Willing to troubleshoot and problem-solve
  • Learn how to do image processing and analysis of fMRI and fNIRS data with guidance
  • Knowledge and application of statistics and biostatistics; able to analyse data using software such as SPSS.

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.
