SMEs and startups use Day One Jobs to fill entry-level roles faster, cheaper, and fairer.
Three steps. Zero faff.

Create your job in minutes.

Every candidate has passed assessments.

No recruiter commissions.
We’ve reimagined hiring from the ground up. Here’s what makes us different.

Remember when that candidate who claimed to have "advanced Excel skills" then asked what a spreadsheet was? We test skills properly, so you meet people who can actually do what they say.

Post a role, get matched instantly with people who fit your skills, values and vibe. Most of our companies are done hiring in under a week. (Yes, really.)

It's quality hiring without the premium price tag. Our solutions are made for businesses like yours, meaning you'll find what you're looking for, fast and affordably.

We've partnered with 50+ universities, colleges, schools and training providers countrywide to find those hidden gems you wouldn't see on LinkedIn or other jobs boards.
Features that actually make a difference to your hiring process.
Customer service talent handle angry virtual customers. Analysts work with real data that doesn’t behave nicely. They show they know what they’re doing, before they get the job.
Profiles show skills and values, not selfies. Each talent is identified by a random string of characters, so you pick the best person for the job, not the best headshot.
Chat with candidates right inside the platform. There’s no need for messy email chains anymore. Ask questions, get answers and keep it all in one place until you’re ready for interview.
Tell Jade (our virtual AI recruiter, who doesn’t take commission) what you’re looking for, from locations to values, and she’ll line up a shortlist of perfect candidates for you, in the time it takes for you to make a cuppa.
No hidden fees. No surprise charges. Pricing designed with you in mind.
*All prices shown exclude VAT.
Need something custom? We work with enterprise clients too.
Want to try us out before committing? No worries.
Upload your job description and we’ll share a shortlist of verified candidates who match exactly what you’re looking for.
No small print, no hidden fees, just a chance for us to show you how we work.
