Personal Learning / Career Expert

What you’ll do

Mercor is partnering with leading AI labs to advance frontier agent evaluations in career and learning. As a Personal Learning & Career Expert, you’ll build long-horizon career and study tasks that mirror the work you already do, each paired with a deterministic rubric that grades agent performance against verifiable ground truth. Tasks need to have checkable answers; no open-ended essays, no subjective judgment calls.

Expect to build scenarios across:

• Career artifacts: resumes where every claim must trace back to source work history, JD-tailoring against required-keyword lists
• Interview prep: STAR stories built from a verified background file, question prep that covers a required competency list for the target role
• Study planning: plans that respect exam-date and hours-available constraints, content summaries with fact-checkable key points against source material

These scenarios will be challenging and take long sessions of focus.

Who we’re looking for

• 3+ years in career coaching, resume writing, tutoring, instructional design, or similar
• Expertise in one or more of the following: ATS-optimized resume writing, LinkedIn optimization, interview prep frameworks (STAR, CARL), study plan construction, major standardized exam prep
• Comfortable reading and producing career/learning artifacts: tailored resumes, interview prep packets, study plans, content summaries
• Clear written communication; can articulate reasoning step by step and encode it into deterministic rubrics

Compensation

$55–$75/hr depending on domain depth and prior experience. Strong contributors are promoted based on task quality and throughput.
