Talent Portal

An early talent ATS built specifically for early talent. Attraction, matching, engagement, eligibility, compliance, communications and reporting, in one platform designed from the ground up for this market.

Early talent recruitment has its own rules, its own candidates and its own compliance requirements. Talent Portal was built around them.

Features

Interest-led matching and proactive search

Candidates build profiles around their interests, aspirations and location. Recruiters search and find matched candidates proactively.

The match is based on what candidates want to do, not what they have already done. Motivated people who would never have found the vacancy are found instead.

Integrated careers sites and provider recruitment pages

Branded careers pages and vacancy listings built into the platform. For FE colleges, course listings and apprenticeship vacancies in one candidate journey.

One registration, one candidate record, whether exploring a course or an apprenticeship.

Multi-channel communications

Email, WhatsApp, SMS and phone from one platform. All interactions tracked and logged.

Early talent candidates do not reliably respond to email. WhatsApp and SMS response rates are categorically better for this audience.

Automated candidate chasing

Candidates who stall at any stage are chased automatically via their preferred channel.

The greatest time drain in early talent recruitment is chasing. This removes it entirely.

API connections to government portals

Direct integration with Find an Apprenticeship and other government platforms. Vacancies syndicated without manual re-entry.

Reduces duplication and reaches candidates where they are already looking.

Accessibility tools for job descriptions

Built-in accessibility and readability checking for vacancy content, including WCAG compliance.

Accessible job descriptions reach more candidates and reduce structural barriers.

Right-to-work verification

Integrated right-to-work checking within the candidate record.

Compliance happens where the candidate already is. No platform-switching at the point where drop-off is most costly.

Conversion analytics

End-to-end visibility from first engagement to placement, in real time.

The data to optimise every future campaign is generated automatically.
