Our mission

At Day One, our mission is to help all companies hire better, and to provide opportunities for everyone based solely on talent and ability, regardless of social connections, background, or experience.

We've made it our mission, let's make it yours!

What we believe in

People first

People-First: Fairness in Action

 

We believe in putting people first. Everyone deserves to be treated fairly, and we are committed to providing opportunities to anyone, based solely on skills, attributes and attitude- nothing else.

A place for all

A Place for All: Access Diverse Talent

We believe that there is no one place in which to find talent. Regardless of social connections, background or experience, talent should be given the same access to opportunities. This is not just the right thing to do- it also ensures a diverse, reflective workforce.

Practice makes perfect

Practice makes Perfect: Equitable Hiring

We believe in better hiring practices. Our approach is rooted in equitability and inclusivity, ensuring that every candidate is valued and assessed with fairness and respect. By embracing these principles, we create a workforce that is not only skilled but also rich in diversity and perspectives.

Reshaping the hiring landscape, and beyond...

On a mission to help you hire better and hire fairer, we’re not only focused on reshaping the hiring landscape. Whilst our platform revolutionises traditional hiring processes, and gives everyone a chance, we are dedicated to more than just the recruitment environment.

At the heart of Day One, is a commitment to contribute to a better future in more ways than one. We believe that ethical business practices form the foundation for a better world. As a result of this deeply rooted (pun intended) belief, we are members of Carma - offsetting our carbon emissions by planting trees.

The Day One story

Whilst we have had the opportunity to do so many amazing things and meet so many amazing people, from astronauts to motivated, dedicated people from all over the UK and beyond, our story has only just begun. We are so excited to see what the future holds!

Our CEO, Ricky Doyle, came up with a revolutionary mission- “Let’s create a world where talent has fair and equitable access to opportunities”.

September 2024

By September 2024, our CREW has grown to twelve wonderful people, who are based not only all over the UK, but indeed the world! We continue to accelerate forwards, propelled by our mission to help companies hire better and provide fair and equitable access to opportunities for talent. 

Our strategy

Day One is transforming the landscape of talent acquisition through our revolutionary platform that verifies skills and capabilities, whilst removing unconscious bias. In collaboration with Strengthscope, we’ve developed a comprehensive verification framework that champions equitable and impartial hiring.

Our dedication to helping you hire better lies in elevating the quality of hires, broadening the scope of talent, and driving forward-thinking innovation. Our platform matches the authenticated abilities of candidates with the specific needs of your company, advocating for a diverse and socially progressive workforce.

We’re here to help you engage with emerging talent that are ready to make an immediate impact and be part of our mission to craft a future where talent and merit are the cornerstones of success.
