How It Works

A simpler, smarter way to hire early career talent

We source

We Source

We've partnered with schools, bootcamps, colleges and universities worldwide to match your company with motivated and diverse early career talent, all the way from grassroots to graduates.

We verify
We Verify

Candidates complete digital and soft skill verifications, with AI powered interviews and online assessments, so you can hire for potential, not self-promotion.

You hire
You Hire

Post a role. Get matched instantly. Hire talent who share your values, without having to sort through a hundred CVs or guess whether they're the right fit.

Our Mission

Someone once gave you a shot, a chance to launch your career. Our mission is simple; we exist to make more of these moments happen. Simply, fairly and without any guesswork.
 
Early career hiring is broken. It's inefficient, biased and rejects candidates before they've got a foot in the door. We're fixing this, one hire at a time, matching real potential with real opportunities.
 
Our platform makes it easy for you to hire based on skills and strengths, not background, experience or social connections. By using the Day One platform, you're not just recruiting, you're levelling the playing field and making the world a better place, one hire at a time.

Why Choose Day One?

Whatever size your business is, we have the perfect early careers hiring solution for you.

Startups

We know that you have a lot on your plate, and that hiring entry-level talent might not be first on your list. But, with us, it's easy to find that hire that takes some of the load off your shoulders and powers your business forwards.

SMEs

As a growing business, early talent hires are some of the most important you'll make. And while you may not have a dedicated early careers strategy, hiring your first customer service agent or data analyst shouldn't be a difficult task. With us, it isn't.

Our Value

What sets us apart from everyone else

Great hires aren't born, they're verified

If you're looking to hire for entry level roles, how do you know the person has the digital and soft skills you're looking for?

Simply, you don't. Or you didn't. With us, you go beyond basic verification. Assign role-based assessments that show you that they're ready. From customer service to cybersecurity, with everything in between, discover recruitment that's precise, efficient and simple.

Spending time on irrelevant candidates is inefficient and boring. But imagine if every profile you saw didn't just have the skills you're looking for, but the strengths and values too.

Well, that's what you can find with us. Talent that are already perfect for you, instantly available as soon as your role is live
