What You Will Do

• Lead and grow high-impact strategy engagements for C-suite clients, focusing on market entry, product strategy, and competitive positioning.

• Who are Jack & Jill?
• Ok, I'll go first.
• I'm Jack, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call, learning what you're great at and what you want from your career.
• Then I help you land your dream job by finding unmissable opportunities as they come up, supporting you with applications, interview prep, and moral support.
• And I'm Jill, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand who they're looking to hire.
• Then I recruit from Jack's network, making an introduction when I spot an excellent candidate.
• How does this work?
• Jack's an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. He works for you.
• Jill is the AI recruiter working for the company. She recruits from Jack's network.
• If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Jack will send you excellent alternatives.
• We never post fake jobs
• This isn't a trick.
• This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
• Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
• We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
• Give Jack a spin!
• You could land this role.
• If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
