  • Analyze data from our PEO to be sure we are fully utilizing our resources.
  • Support payroll and administrative duties within the Operations department.
  • Lead the Benefits Open Enrollment process and Retirement Planning rollout and updates.

  • Excellent, clear verbal and written communication.

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.
