  • Within 90 days: You will become a trusted and reliable sourcer for the events team and build strong relationships with hotel partners and clients. You’ll also begin to own projects that will contribute to elevating the sourcing process.

What We’re Looking For

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.
