  • Provide impartial careers guidance and support to students and families.
  • Promote opportunities in STEM and other sectors, encouraging girls to pursue ambitious and diverse career pathways.
  • Monitor and evaluate the impact of careers provision using data and student feedback.
  • Support students with progression planning, applications, personal statements, CV writing and interview preparation.
  • Manage careers resources, budgets and external partnerships.

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.
