- Analysis of temporal and seasonal characteristics of the available data, including differences in update frequency, seasonal cycles, lagged relationships between predictors and outcomes, cumulative effects, critical pastoral periods and the suitability of different forecast horizons for anticipatory action;
- Preparation of reproducible analytical datasets, accompanied by a data dictionary and documentation of the processing performed;
- Experimental development of statistical, machine-learning, forecasting or nowcasting models, depending on data availability and objectives validated with ACF and SensingTools, including the assessment of alternative temporal structures and forecast horizons where relevant;

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
