Hi HN,
Earlier this year as meetings moved online, I found myself drowning into them, unable to get any real work done. As I looked around for a tool to audit my calendar to figure out patterns of how my time was being spent, couldn't find any great option out there!
So, I did some data science [1] on calendar and discovered 3 primary dimensions which cause meetings to be draining and ineffective:
1. Wrong people in meetings 2. Agenda not well defined 3. Schedule not optimized for individuals
I was able to leverage these insights and cut down my weekly meetings into half! Hence, decided to build a service so people in similar situation can seamlessly do the same.
I'd love to have you try and hear what could be built on top of the analytics to create more value for you?

I had extremely negative experience with HR from Skyscanner.
After getting the process started from mailing on the mentioned email address, it took 3 reschedules to get 1st call setup because of random reasons.
And, after first call and initial writeup submission, I haven't heard back from HR after month either way.
Considering such unprofessional handling, I'd recommend against them.
