Jumpstart reviews from founders

Tejan is settling in really well and is already proving to be an absolute rock star! He's already having such a positive impact and everyone here is a huge fan!

Gheorghe is awesome. Been here for 4 months now, settled in like a star and was making a difference from day 2!

Tiger is great - awesome candidate. I wish we had more work for her to get her on full time!

Charlotte and Hugh are doing great so far and we've been hugely impressed with how they've hit the ground running.

Ella's been with us for about 6w and she's started excellently; as well as I could've hoped.

George is brilliant. Super happy with him.

Daniel's doing great! Really well, we are very happy.

Sofia has been a fantastic hire - will highly recommend Jumpstart to others.

Jumpstart is helping us scale our team rapidly, finding trusted and vetted talent, saving us significant time all the while being able to ensure the highest bar for talent. The candidate videos in particular are an excellent way to assess fit rapidly.

Nathaniel has already done wonders in the team.

Great platform. Keep up the excellent work Jumpstart.

Thank you Matthew - what you've built is incredible.

Love Jumpstart!

Awesome company - changing the startup hiring game.

Thousand times better than any recruiter I've ever worked with and the constant stream of quality candidates via a shop window makes it really useful to keep looking until users find the right candidate.

Jumpstart is a great platform which we have been using over the last few weeks. Their pre-vetting process produces a list of ambitious, intelligent, and hardworking candidates who have the drive required to work in a startup environment.

We recently made our first hire through the platform Aiman Khan who has hit the ground running and adapted to our unique sales methodology seamlessly. Aiman is a testament to the high caliber of talent Jumpstart attracts. We look forward to continuing our partnership as we scale.

Class operators. Used Jumpstart a few times and the candidate quality is great.

Jumpstart are insane. Don’t know a single candidate or customer who’s used them who didn’t love the product.

Thanks for the help with hiring our Jumpstarter at Wilson - she's been great in her first month so far.

We're thrilled with Emily who we hired through you last year.

Your product and service has been brilliant. Adam's fantastic, thanks again.

As previously, the candidates were great! Thanks to you (and your colleagues) for helping us fill this role so quickly!

HUGE fans of Jumpstart here at Adfin - such big fans I'm almost loathe to give away one of the secrets behind why we have such an amazing team...

We hired Joe who has been nothing but excellent – we’re yet to find something he can’t automate or do.

Curiosity, capability and momentum are exactly what we look for in early-career hires and Jumpstart clearly has a knack for surfacing people like Tejan, who really punch above their CV.

Which is handy as we're going to need plenty more Tejans in the New Year, so Jumpstart will be my first stop. And if you're looking for your own Tejan I recommend you start there too.

We’re extremely pleased with the Jumpstarters we’ve hired this year. No doubt we’ll be taking on more in 2026.

We've been using the platform for 3x current hires, and are impressed with the candidate quality - please keep keeping this high!

You’ve cracked the candidate supply – I don’t exactly know how.

Thank you 🙏 she’s brilliant!

We were really impressed with the overall calibre of candidates on the platform. We met some fantastic people and the process surfaced so much talent. We’ll definitely be using Jumpstart again.

Sasha is a superstar - 1 month in and such a great addition to the team and delivering great value. Jumpstart was a no-brainer decision as the route to hire.

I’d like to use Jumpstart to hire a few more roles for Worldover and don’t want the secret about Jumpstart getting out before then!

Thank you so much for all the help. I'm in love with the platform.

The current hire was so effective, we decided to expand the team and add the second person.

This is an insanely good product idea. Added my COO and COS for a second set of eyes, but already found like 10 people I would love to meet with!

Our Jumpstarter is doing a sterling job. She’s absolutely flying, we’re very happy!

Just wanted to let you know that our Jumpstarter has been an A** hire. Relentless hunger, agency and an excellent team player. We've enjoyed having him on - and he's loved being part of it too!

A really positive first experience using Jumpstart!

You guys are easier and better than YC's work in startups.

If you're looking to hire in London, Jumpstart is the platform to do it on.

He's doing fantastically well!

Gabby is doing great. A fantastic culture fit and progressing very quickly. Fantastic find for us.

The best-built recruitment platform I’ve used.

You take the grunt out of outreach.

Louis is absolutely smashing it. I honestly don’t know what we’d be doing without him. He works incredibly hard and picks things up really quickly.

Managed to beat recruiters, not just incrementally - you’ve created a step change in both the quality of experience AND the commercial model.

Our Jumpstart hire is fantastic, very lucky to have found him. The Jumpstart team are building something very special that all ambitious UK startups need to tap into.

Highly recommend Jumpstart to anyone who hasn’t used them yet. We have our third hire starting on Monday 🚀

Thrilled to be partnering with you to bring in the best talent out there. The speed, precision, and quality bar has been a real treat so far - efficient, thoughtful & well above the noise.

I genuinely think Jumpstart is head and shoulders above any other recruitment service we have used to date. Our Jumpstart hire is a star.

Our Jumpstarter is IRREPLACEABLE. She's phenomenal.

The SDR we hired is easily in the Top 10 hires of my career (maybe even Top 5).

Super happy with our Jumpstarter, he's been a weapon for us!

Our Jumpstarter is doing great, couldn't have asked for much more!

Our new Founder’s Associate has worked out so well, the onboarding process has been seamless with him! Grateful to Jumpstart.

We’ve hired two founder's associates via Jumpstart and have found their platform to be leagues ahead of traditional approaches!

Jumpstart helped us find our latest Product Ops associate, we've been very excited about how fast her learning curve has been since she started.

Our Jumpstarter is doing great, she's been smashing it since day 1.

Jumpstart gave us access to a higher calibre of talent — individuals genuinely hungry to make an impact. Our Jumpstarter has quickly become the most successful SDR we’ve had at VoxSmart .

Jumpstart are the provider I trust most - and that comes down to two things:

1. I've never heard a single piece of negative feedback about the quality of your work.

2. The proof is in the pudding - you've successfully staffed roles across so many portfolio companies.

I'm generally a skeptic when it comes to recommending providers to founders but since joining Local Globe, I've been sending them your way without hesitation - full trust.

A little over a year ago, we hired a wonderful SDR and now he is running our team as our Business Development Manager! A big thank you to Jumpstart for helping us find him, I can't recommend them enough.

Jumpstart helped us hire great people, fast. Recruitment is one of the biggest time drains in any growing business, CV screening alone can take hours (our latest role had over 1,000 applicants!) Jumpstart saved us 10-15 hours per role and gave us great candidates.

Finding the right generalist talent can be tricky, but Jumpstart made it so easy. We couldn't be happier with our new Commercial Associate, he has already added so much value!

For any founders who are looking for a new team member who will make an impact from day 1, I can't recommend Jumpstart enough!

Hiring our new Full Stack Engineer was such a wonderful and easy experience. I'm so impressed with all he's achieved in his first few months here, I couldn't recommend Jumpstart more!

A big thank you to Jumpstart for helping us find our new Sales and Account Manager! He's been one of our best hires in recent times.

My Jumpstarter is fantastic. He's taken on every project with confidence and an amazing attitude. He gets along with everyone on the team and has lifted a massive burden for my co-founder, too! Hope to hire more with Jumpstart in the future.

We've hired a Founder Associate with Jumpstart and we are extremely happy! Managed to find a very smart and ambitious individual that started rocking the stage from their first day with Adfin!

Huge fan of Jumpstart - effortless introductions to a fantastic range of candidates for our Founder's Associate position, almost too much quality- made it difficult to choose, though we're thrilled with our hire!

Our Jumpstarter has been a great addition to the team – we’re very happy.

Our Jumpstarter is fantastic, a real superstar.

Our Jumpstarter has been a huge addition to our team and has taken on a tonne of ownership! Jumpstart have been great to work with and are definitely the go-to place for finding ambitious generalists!

Delighted to have our jumpstarter onboard! She's hit the ground running so quickly and has made such a huge impact already!

We are loving having two Jumpstarters on the team, makes it pretty hard to justify hiring any non Jumpstarters.

Many thanks for all your help on a great hire – Jumpstart was an excellent way of finding rising talent.

We had some fantastic candidates come through Jumpstart and the Founder Associate we selected is amazing! Within the first month, he was able to independently manage finance, marketing, hiring, investor relations, customer support, and more!

Our Jumpstarter has hit the ground running and we're excited to see what he can achieve in the rest of 2025! Will be using Jumpstart again - great platform with a good list of high quality graduates. Thank you Jumpstart!

I used Jumpstart to make a great hire. They're awesome. Think of an accelerator to get young talent into startup jobs.

Our Jumpstarter has been a huge asset to the team. I'm really delighted with the hire.

Our Jumpstarter is doing a fantastic job. Really glad to have her as part of the team.

Our Jumpstarter is doing very well. She became a key part of the team immediately and has taken on so much responsibility so quickly!

Our Jumpstarter is fab. Brings such a good energy, doing really well in the role and taking everything in her stride. She's 10/10.

Our Jumpstarter is doing a brilliant job - another win for Patch through JS.

Hands down one of the best developments in the UK startup ecosystem in the past 5 years is Jumpstart (platform for finding early-stage talent).

Our Jumpstarter is smashing it!

For a junior generalist, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

It's been great - really easy process and great candidates

Our Jumpstarter is doing great! Really love having him on the team, he’s making a great impact.

Our Founder's Associate hire has been a resounding success.

Our Jumpstarter has been a wonderful addition to the team and we're really happy to have him onboard!

Was really impressed with the consistent quality of Jumpstart candidates...

Our Jumpstarter is a superstar and has brought such incredible energy to the team!

I gotta say, I was EVEN more impressed with JS's candidate pool this time around. Very high quality.

All the candidates were impressive. Thank you for providing such high quality candidates.

Thrilled with the team we've been able to build with you guys.

The jumpstart candidates were phenomenal.

Our Jumpstarter is great! We enjoy having him as part of our team and he is doing really well.

Really enjoying Jumpstart - some really good candidates.

Jumpstart are like a headhunter on steroids. Within 2 weeks of speaking them, we had an offer out and accepted. Already working with them again for our next search.

Our Jumpstarter is fantastic! Very happy we found her.

Our Jumpstarter is doing GREAT! She's already settled fully in to the team and it feels like she's been here for ages!

Our Jumpstarter joined last week - off to a flying start!

Our Jumpies are the highest contributors to our work - both in terms of output and culturally, they are helping to shape the company as we grow.

I've been extremely impressed by the quality of candidates from Jumpstart. They're all extremely motivated and bright!

I had a first call with Jumpstart on July 2nd and just over 2 weeks later we had our new starter. Very impressed!

Just wanted to say that the process with Jumpstart has been great and we were super impressed with the talent you guys were able to put forward. You and the team did a really great job!

Our Jumpstarter is doing really well, we're very pleased with how he's performing and leading the BD function. He also seems to be enjoying it which is great!

We’re a little gutted if honest – we found 2x amazing candidates but could only offer one. A testament to the quality of your candidates

What a legend! He is already making an impact!

I have been recommending Jumpstart to anyone who’ll listen…I am so impressed with the level of both candidates we have hired from them.

Tushar has been a great addition to the team, bringing a combination of creativity and technical focus to the job of marketing. Finding him through Jumpstart has been great.

We came out of the interviews wishing we could make 3 hires.

Joanna is an absolute force of nature! She's truly brilliant.

Thanks again for introducing Zara, she has had a great impact at Ledgy already!

I have to say that the pool of candidates is amazing. We are really REALLY excited about Hattie – it’s such a good culture fit. Thank you so much!

They are both learning lots very quickly which is great. They both have potential to be very successful in a startup.

Charlie is doing phenomenally well – he really is smashing it: making first really solid calls 2 weeks onto a job, and consistently exceeding his quota 3 months in a row - I don't want to talk about Jumpstart too much to others, so we can keep this kind of high quality talent to ourselves…

Bringing Harry into the team has been a seamless process; we’ve found someone who’s keen, able, grounded, hard working and quick to learn. He found his feet quickly and is already a notable high achiever in the team for us to work with.

Consistently blown away by quality of Jumpstarters, aligns perfectly with our hiring ethos of hiring young, smart talent and giving them tons of responsibility.

We have very high standards for the people we hire at EWOR (which are rising every year) and Jumpstart is the only HR solution that can keep up with those.

Your service is incredible. Hands down the best candidate pool I've ever seen for this position.

It was a great process and will definitely be sending more startups your way!

Congrats on the level of talent you guys are attracting. It's really world class. It was very hard for me to choose!

Our Jumpstarter is smashing it!

It’s been GREAT working with Charlie – he’s excellent!

You’ve done the impossible – you've made recruitment not shit. I talk about Jumpstart to everyone – it’s impeccably slick.

The kind of candidates we're talking to this time are off the charts. I'm immensely impressed by the quality. Keep it going

It's been great working with the Jumpstart team and the candidates we have spoken with have all been fantastic 🧡

I’m super impressed with the speed we’ve been able to hire for the FA role.

Arun is still killing it. He completely changed my entire professional life - without Arun I don’t know how we would have made our launch happen

Hopefully can find some more superstars from this cohort. Our most recent Jumpstarter has just finished her first day and she is a GREAT fit with the team.

The Jumpstarter we hired has been GREAT – really impactful and great to work with!

We’ve hired some very very good juniors and junior BDRs from Jumpstart. It’s a great model.

Jumpstart has incredibly high talent density that massively reduced time and stress to hire.

The whole process has been incredibly smooth and produced seriously good interviews

The Jumpstarter we hired is smart, hardworking, collaborative and a pleasure to work with – we could not be more happy with them! Jumpstart is AWESOME

She is doing great - can't remember what the team was like without her :)

My only criticism of Jumpstart is it's been extremely hard to decide from the top-quality candidates we had come through...

Would highly recommend. Jumpstart manages to field the most ambitious & talented people - the quality that we experienced was outstanding.

Adil has been a superstar from day 1. We're lucky to have him!

Toni has made terrific progress since she joined and she’s had a positive impact on the team. We’re looking forward to working with Toni and seeing her grow and develop!

Our Jumpstarter is an absolute star!

VERY happy with how Ach has onboarded. A massive value add to the team!

Andrew is doing great! Putting in some amazing work and also just a genuinely lovely person to have around the office – great culture fit.

Our Jumpstarters have really grown and defined a lot of our work and driven us forward

We had a very successful hire via Jumpstart last month. Keen for more

The 10x employee concept is not just for engineers. And Jumpstart helped us find exactly that for our founder associate

All of the candidates were very close and presented different skills and personalities! I wish I could have them all.

Jumpstart is an INCREDIBLE lead generation machine for founder associates, marketing & sales candidates… and we’ve just hired 2x of them.

To be honest, all candidates were exceptional, I would have loved to hire all three!

We think your programme is absolutely sensational, we've been really impressed with all of the candidates we've met. We’re very happy Jumpstart customers and would recommend to anyone out there looking to make a very high quality hire, very quickly.

The experience working with Jumpstart is phenomenal – great candidates who are really excited for the challenge of working in start-ups.

I've been really impressed by the candidates - it's a real challenge connecting with this calibre of people, so having someone who can help us do that has been incredible valuable.

The overall standard is excellent. Through Jumpstart we've been paired with some really stellar candidates, and we're fully comfortable in passing off all of our BDR sourcing to Jumpstart.

Jumpstart's a brilliant platform.

We have worked a lot with Jumpstart and have nothing but positive things to say.

One thing is for sure - I will be coming back to Jumpstart for the next eligible position.

Honestly Jumpstart is just the only place you should hire from. Somehow they manage to get ALL of the amazing people

Great experience. Love this new spin on hiring! Great engagement.

The candidate calibre is unmatched - you’ve really hit the nail on its head, and such an innovative approach too.

We've just hired a great Jumpstarter so are back for more!

We weren’t actually looking to hire right now btw. I just didn’t want to miss your next cohort of candidates. But ended up hiring another one 3-6 months early as they were perfect for the role.

Working with your candidates has been a great experience for us.

Highly recommend. Great model.

Jumpstart was super easy and did the bulk of the hard work for us – we’ve just made a really promising hire.

Would love to hire another Jumpstart candidate - Ollie has set the bar really high :)

We've been so thrilled by the process and the people we met... Jumpstart has been the perfect opportunity for us and the candidates have blown us away.

Jumpstart has been such an efficient way to hire. We filled two roles through Jumpstart and hiring from a curated & pre-vetted candidate pool meant that we met great people immediately.

The candidates were all of a very high calibre and the process of choosing candidates and setting up interview was seamless. Really great experience and super happy with the hires.

From our experience there isn't a better source of early-career talent than Jumpstart for European startups

The quality of the candidates has been amazing and you've done such a great job of running the process!

I can safely say the calibre of candidates you get from Jumpstart is miles better than elsewhere!

We were introduced to Jumpstart and from the get-go it was the best experience. Hannah has allowed the team to focus on other areas of growth. She has bought with her lots of ideas and solutions to problems we were facing previously. Hannah is fully integrated into the team and we would be lost without her!

It has worked a complete dream I would have hired 7 out of the 7 people you sent me - whatever your vetting process is, a big thumbs up.

A wonderful experience partnering with them on SDR hiring. Having businesses pitch to talent really turns the tables on the recruitment process, and I am here for it.

So impressed with this system! You've built a great thing.

We've been so thrilled by the process and the people we met... Jumpstart has been the perfect opportunity for us and Hollie and Mark have blown us away.

Jumpstart was by far the easiest and most effective way for us to find our star hire!

Have been impressed with the quality of candidates - we have just made another offer too.... This could be the start of something good!

We bloody love Jumpstart!

I love the Jumpstart process and how it lets you get in front of a pack of hungry and excited candidates. By pitching to them you get applicants that already have a good understanding of the culture and purpose of your business. It's a quick, efficient and effective way of hiring.

Incredible team to work with who can help find insanely talented people. I couldn’t recommend Jumpstart more.

Carl blew us away with his passion, smarts, and achievements. At the age of 21, he has already founded - and sold - a sustainability startup.

Ashley is still one of the best people I ever hired! When the time is right I’ll definitely go through Jumpstart again

With many Jumpstart alumni performing miracles at our humble startup, we know that the candidate selection, rapid education and ongoing community create incredibly hard-working, passionate, motivated and all round cool people.

We've hired some amazing graduates through Jumpstart - would highly recommend working with them. Great way to hire exceptional young talent really fast.

What a FANTASTIC cohort wow. I have never had such thoughtful questions in rapid succession – amazing to see. No wonder your NPS with everyone I spoke to about you is so high.

The whole process was stellar - well managed, perfectly organised, easy to follow, and we could not be happier.

Archie is fantastic so far. Very happy with his performance. Will be presenting again in the future.

Super smart, high EQ, gets stuff done. We’re very happy with our Jumpstart hire.

Lewis has been a great asset to our team, we're really happy we partnered with Jumpstart.

Very impressed with what you are all doing at Jumpstart, a very slick operation indeed.

Bud's experience hiring from Jumpstart was fantastic. With the quality of the graduates, it made us question if we had room to hire more than we set out to.

We are thrilled to share that he has made a significant and positive impact on our team.

Complete rockstar of a candidate – he is more than capable of leading a meeting with C-suites at Fortune 100 corps (which he did this week, single handedly)

Rashawn has been brilliant. He's doing exactly as we hoped he might (and more!) and already adding huge value to our team. Delighted he picked us!

The Jumpstart equation is simple. Access the best young talent for a fraction of what you would pay an agency.

Jumpstart presented a fantastic set of graduates and we were able to make a rapid hiring decision at a time of critical need without compromising on quality.

Pleased that everything I had heard about Jumpstart was true – they really do do a great job of pre-selecting awesome junior candidates - which just makes the hiring process that much simpler and so much quicker.

Quite quickly realised that hiring a founder associate was going to save a huge amount of time - we ended up meeting and then hiring our founder associate within one week.

100 would recommend Jumpstart. We had a flurry of super high quality candidates. Our chief of staff we just onboarded changed my life, literally.

We came to Jumpstart expecting to hire just the one person. We ended up interviewing 6 people and were completely blown away by all of them. So much so that we ended up making FOUR offers.

These jumpstart lot are fresh air. Great to talk to people who understand getting across personal motivations, affinity to the mission and purpose and genuine interest in the problems we are solving.

Jumpstart really took the time to understand our needs - which led to an incredibly efficient and amazing hire!

We highly recommend the work that the team are doing in curating the next generation of impactful team members.

Super smooth process from start to finish leading to top quality candidates interviewed, hired and onboarded in just a couple of weeks. I don't know who's more excited - us or our new Jumpstarters.

We were looking for a junior gem and we weren't event sure that we were going to hire a grad for this position, but did because Jumpstart introduced us to the best candidate by far!

Jumpstart is honestly incredible - every single person they select could probably do the job really well.

This is a FANTASTIC list of people. You really run a great and very well-organised show here - congratulations!

It was great. We quickly filled a pipeline of talent from underrepresented backgrounds and filled two roles. Would recommend.

The Jumpstart Candidates I'd worked with at Lick were so well liked, fit in so quickly...just the perfect people for that startup environment - clever, switched on, always wanted to learn.

Mingqi is incredible - genuinely a star. She's been so prolific just 1 month in. Everything she's taken over in a short period of time - truly incredible.

As I repeatedly mention to our team here, Jumpstart's candidates are a cut above.

Matthew Sarre has an amazing founder associate program over at Jumpstart - where they help you find founder associates. Highly recommend!

Jumpstart provided YuLife with an absolute rockstar of a graduate.
