Stop filtering hundreds of inflated CVs. Connect with the top 1% of vetted, early-career talent on the UK’s no.1 startup talent marketplace.
Most startups end up in one of these dead-ends. Jumpstart is the shortcut. We pre-vet applicants so you don’t have to.
Post a job. Get 500 CVs. Most are irrelevant. You burn hours screening just to find one decent candidate.
Recruiters push 'perfect' CVs that crumble in the interview. You waste hours meeting candidates who can't back up their claims.
You want control but building an internal process takes time you don’t have. Roles stay open and momentum stalls.

Startups use Jumpstart for hiring
Pre-vetted early-career talent, ready to interview — browse live profiles and request interviews instantly.
Only the top 1% make it onto Jumpstart. Every candidate passes a CV screen, interview, and case study so you only see people worth meeting.
Log in and browse pre-vetted Generalist, Sales and Marketing talent. Request interviews directly — no recruiters, no waiting, no “shortlist next week.”
CVs hide the important stuff. Video profiles help you verify communication skills and 'spark' in 60 seconds. No more awkward 30-minute screening calls.
You don’t pay until your hire passes probation. If it doesn’t work out in the first 90 days, we replace them so you can move fast without agency-level risk.
Jumpstart is designed for early-stage startups who need proactive, tenacious, early-career generalists to help you go from 0→1.
Don’t take our word for it. Here’s what founders and talent leaders say about Jumpstart.
Everything you need to know before you start hiring.
No. Jumpstart is a curated talent marketplace. Agencies are manual, slow, and incentivised to sell you anyone. Jumpstart is a platform that gives you direct access to a pre-vetted pool of candidates. You can browse all live profiles and request as many interviews as you wish.
Jumpstart specialises in junior to mid-level talent (1-5 years). We also have a stream for senior generalists (5+ years of experience).
We put our 5,000+ monthly candidates through a three-step process. First, we screen based off CV. 5% pass that. Then, we put those candidates through an interview where they run through a startup-specific case study, and then we test them for their motivations to work for a startup. The end result is 1% of candidates gain access to our platform.
It is completely free to use the Jumpstart platform, browse candidates, post unlimited roles and book interviews. If you hire a Jumpstarter, we only charge after 90 days if you’re happy with your hire.
Only 9% of Jumpstarters fail to pass probation due to performance-related issues. We only charge once your hire passes probation, so if they aren’t the right fit, you won’t pay a penny.
Join 1,500+ startups hiring faster and better. No fees until your hire passes probation.
