Why we exist
Early-career hiring is broken:
■Our matchmaking engine precisely connects candidates to roles using graduate-specific data like university, grades, and subject, so you only receive qualified applicants.
■All candidates are actively called and screened, ensuring everyone submitted is qualified, interested, and ready to move forward.
■ The moment your role goes live, our AI instantaneously calls hundreds of matched candidates in tandem. You receive a motivated shortlist in record time, before others even start.
■Traditional agencies charge 15–20% of first-year salary per hire. For a £40k graduate, that's £8k per placement.
■Our built in ATS keeps everything organised, with drag and drop recruitment process tracking, automated updates and instant feedback so candidates are never left in the dark.
Our Principles:
01No Funnel Contamination
If someone doesn't qualify, they don't enter the pipeline.
02Proactive Over Passive
We build shortlists intentionally — not from whoever applies.
03Clear Communication
Fast, unambiguous updates so candidates don't chase.
04Signal Over Volume
Fewer candidates. Stronger fit. Faster decisions.
Define your criteria.
Find your place.
Hire the right graduates. Get matched to the right roles. Gradivate works for both sides of the equation.
