  • Assist with subcontractor coordination, including meetings, activity scheduling, material staging, and labor issue resolution.
  • Support shop drawing and submittal review processes, maintain submittal logs, and verify material delivery dates.

  • Help document and communicate project changes, including pricing requests, extra work authorizations, and construction bulletins.

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.
