How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.

There's an ATS (Workable), but at AJAIA, referrals get priority. Your cold application competes with sourced candidates and internal recommendations.
Who to contact at AJAIA
No verified contact route for AJAIA yet. Based on size () and sector (), the hiring manager is likely the decision-maker, but treat this as a model.
What AJAIA screens for
For a company, expect them to prioritize relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously over credentials.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use AJAIA's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
Generic CVs stand out at a -person company — and not in a good way. Fastest path to rejection.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what AJAIA is dealing with right now — is growing fast after their null round, and what you'd do about it.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
