  • Participate in QA/QC reviews and coordinate BIM and documentation standards.
  • Assist with tender and permit issuance, shop drawings, product submissions, RFIs, site instructions, clarification sketches, and consultant reviews.
  • Participate in site visits, field reviews, deficiency reviews, and project closeout activities.
  • Maintain project filing, document control, correspondence, schedules, dashboards, and task-tracking records.

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

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
