We got recommendations from [*USI*} to use your services. As it stands we are currently in a process of setting up conveyor systems, replicators, and other advanced equipment requiring a lot of new personnel being transported to our station for its operations.
We are looking for scientists who have at least a minor in hyperspace physics. Major is more preferred though. They would be dealing with jump drives and technologies. Another main field of our interests is hyperspace survey systems. Besides working with standard equipment, we offer the chance to work in unique projects, friendly collective, free coffee (from a neighboring station), flexible timetable, as long as they can manage their time enough to perform well and within deadlines. Any scientist who is interested would be welcome at Interstellar Beacon.
We have a lot of open vacancies, and already credits were gathered to pay for their delivery tickets:

We ask you if you can take a transporting role and delivery of all applicants to our place. We are located in Pennsylvania near Philadelphia station.
Best regards, Raul Golden, administrator of Interstellar Beacon.
While Orbital isn't usually in the business of headhunting, we do have a lot of contact with the populations you're looking for. Between various conferences and experiments, many of the best mind of Sirius have booked passage on White Star Line vessels, and our mailing list was quick to respond. The economy being what it is, I suppose many academics are jumping at the chance for solid work.
Scoring a ride in an orbital vessel to said job certainly doesn't hurt, either.
Several of our captains have already started the process of ferrying the interested scientists to your station. I'll have them submit their invoices with appropriate evidence of delivery shortly.

Thank you for accepting our offer. Indeed, having comfortable ride would be hopefully appreciated by them. Scientists are those who deserve appreciation for their contribution to humanity advancement. We have already taken first passengers onboard, and we look forward to new ones arrival.
Best regards, Raul Golden, administrator of Interstellar Beacon.

Greetings Raul,
I believe we've completed the shipment of scientists for your station. Your station master is saying that the berths are filled and they seem to be getting straight to work. I'm glad we could strike such a mutually beneficial partnership, and I look forward to hearing about all of the interesting things that come out of your workshops in the future.
On a more... troubling note, one of my people, Captain Stone, commented that your crew seem a bit unhappy. Many were asking for passage off station, and it seems that some had already booked their way off other transports. They were complaining that the influx of scientists have strained their supplies to the last. You might consider accelerating the timetable for your next supply vessel to mitigate the desertion.

Indeed, all passengers arrived. You are welcome to use our services in case of need, we are already providing hyperspace coordinates, according to price list. If you would become interested, we sent you our catalog through a private channel just in case.
Thanks to you, we widen our services to offer construction of jump drive and survey devices for a quite cheap price, like 25 mils per one. Materials providence would be on a client's shoulders though. We already updated our public accessed part of the neural page to reflect it.
As for supplies, yeah it seems to be some problem. Repair teams demand a lot of salaries and consume too much food for them being kept all time around, I wonder how they aren't round blobs of fat yet. Usually, we think it is better, to get their hands when a certain threshold of failures happens, and the need for maintenance arises again. We made recent calculations about how much systematic problems araises in a time frame, and slightly torn apart in deciding what's better to choose.
It could be quite perspective choice asking some transporting for a regular supply, which probably would be the course of action we can take. It would mean a small repair crew being kept on station all the time. Regular contracted supplies should satisfy all their quirks. We would see calculations done to see if that's the best or better to leave it as it is now. Thank you for pointing to the problem.
Best regards, Raul Golden, administrator of Interstellar Beacon.
