  • Approximately 70–80 beds, functioning as a Tier 3 regional hospital

  • Aboriginal Mental Health programs
  • Older Adult Mental Health services

This is a community-driven service, allowing for continuity of care and meaningful long-term patient outcomes.

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.
