What people are saying
“We had 400 applicants for some roles. First made it possible to review them all efficiently, make great hires, and save time and costs — with zero talent team, just hiring managers.”
“First is easy to use, with excellent onboarding and support that goes above and beyond. It's streamlined our shortlisting process, saving hours of productive time. The personalised service and caring team deliver an efficient, effective product that helps us maximise their technology.”
“First allowed us, as a business and as consultants, to do more, in the same space of time. Using First has allowed us to make sure that every CV has been reviewed consistently.”
“It's been great for the new apprenticeship and helped reduce the impact of hiring on our billable staff. We even built a talent pipeline of candidates for future roles. We need more tools like this.”
“Thank you! Pretty impressed by the recruiting system Luke! Our team has already used it to make two hires from hundreds of applications. It's amazing 🤩”
“First has greatly improved our candidate flow and helped expand our client market by saving us significant time. The support is outstanding—Danny and Luke are always available to help. Highly recommend!”

Some information was already on my CV, but good to see some practical questions asked
It was a straight, straightforward, good-form experience
Even though I love AI and chat I still prefer speaking directly with individuals as I do not believe ones passion and full experience can be understood in this format.
