Work Wanted!
Hey Team
My name is Jordan, I’m from Hamilton and have an idea that you might be interested in.
Have you ever been in a situation where you needed a person/ people to help you with a job but you couldn’t find anyone suitable?
It could have been help with heavy lifting, lawns that you are just busy to mow, a construction site that needs a clean up, gardening that you never get around to, admin assistance work, handyman stuff done around the house, moving offices/ houses etc..
My idea is to connect busy people who need things done with vetted Hamilton locals who have the skills to help out and want to earn a bit of extra cash.
Would you be comfortable filling out a 1 minute survey so that I can get the necessary feedback to get started?

Your time is much appreciated,
Thanks,
Jordan
Ps. If you know anyone else in Hamilton that might be interested in this idea, could you please forward this email?

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
