research-company

The research-company skill is designed to perform comprehensive research on companies and generate structured dossiers that support job applications, interview preparation, and cultural fit assessments. It addresses the common challenge of gathering accurate and in-depth information about potential employers, ensuring that candidates have a clear understanding of a company's operations, culture, market position, and strategic priorities. By centralizing and organizing this information, it eliminates the need for fragmented research across multiple sources and reduces the risk of relying on incomplete or inaccurate data.

The skill provides a multi-step workflow that covers basic information gathering, deep analysis of business operations, culture, and market presence, as well as recruitment-related insights. Users can collect company details such as locations, size, sector, products, and history, followed by a detailed assessment of business models, revenue, technology stack, growth, company values, leadership, and reputation. It also examines market position, competitors, trends, and regulations. Additionally, the skill evaluates recruitment contexts by analyzing open positions, hiring patterns, business needs, and opportunity windows. The final output is a dossier saved according to strict file naming and folder conventions, including a sources section and unverified data clearly marked when necessary.

This skill is particularly valuable for job seekers, career coaches, and recruiters who require structured, reliable insights into companies. It is suitable for preparing for interviews, evaluating cultural fit, identifying strategic opportunities, and keeping track of researched companies for ongoing applications. By standardizing the research process, it enables users to quickly access key insights and make informed decisions, improving both preparation and strategic engagement with potential employers.
