Founded by Dr. Eric Schmidt, the Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP) is a 501(c)3 private operating foundation tasked with making recommendations to strengthen America’s long-term global competitiveness for a future where artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies reshape our global strategic environment. The project is organized into three directorates - Global Partnerships, Technology Leadership, and AI Adoption. Each directorate will analyze AI and other emerging technologies, address how these technologies will reshape their field and produce detailed recommendations to ensure that America is organized to win the techno-economic competition.

  • Independently, and as part of the Technology Leadership Directorate, monitor and analyze trends, developments, and emerging issues in relevant fields and areas of interest for SCSP and the team, and identify opportunities for additional research and analysis.
  • Produce written products based on the above research and analysis, including drafting original reports, briefing documents, talking points, newsletters, opinion pieces, action plans, and other written products – individually or in coordination with one or more members of the research and analysis team.
  • Collaborate with other panel research team members, as well as the operations, public affairs, and government affairs teams, to ensure advance preparation of materials needed for a variety of engagements, meetings, and events.
  • Participate in the development of the Directorate’s and SCSP’s shared goals, priorities, and critical tasks.
  • Support and mentor panel research assistants in their research and analysis to ensure project deliverables meet requirements and deadlines.
  • Ensure high quality and rigorous standards for research and analysis, including adherence to SCSP’s protocols and procedures for citation, writing style, and potential conflicts.

  • 2 to 5 years of research and analysis experience. Experience in relevant fields identified above is preferred.

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.
