Hire on merit.
Nothing else.
Anonymous candidate profiles. One monthly subscription, unlimited hires per slot. No names, no photos, no per-hire fees — just skills, experience, and the right fit.
How it works
Simple, transparent, and built around you.
Browse anonymously
Filter candidates by skill, sector, experience level, and hiring track. No names. No photos. No bias.
Subscribe and use a slot
Pick a plan that fits your hiring volume. Send requests freely — a slot is only used once both parties sign the agreement. It frees the moment you mark a placement as ended.
Clear the candidate
Once both parties sign the agreement, we trigger clearance. Full identity and CV download unlocked instantly.
Build your profile
List your skills, role titles, sectors, and experience. We store your personal details privately — employers never see them.
Accept or decline
You get notified of hiring requests showing the employer's name and industry. You decide who gets a chance.
Sign and get hired
Both parties sign a digital agreement. ClearCandidate confirms clearance and you're ready to start.

Give someone their shot
Not everyone gets in the door the conventional way. Some of the best people you'll ever hire are currently in the wrong career — through no fault of their own. They just need one employer to take a chance.
Career changers can declare exactly what they're interested in and why — in 300 characters or fewer. No waffle. Just honesty.
"I've spent 4 years restoring classic cars in my own time and am ready to make it my career. I have my own workshop and a genuine passion for the trade."
Specifically designed to surface entry-level candidates — both school leavers and career changers who've opted in. Included on every plan, just like any other track.
Included in your subscription · +1 free slot
Every active apprenticeship hire gives you a bonus slot on top of your plan limit.
When you filter by entry-level or open to all, career changers appear in a clearly separated section — equal in quality, clearly labelled so you know what you're looking at.

Real experiences from candidates and employers on the platform.
"We found a logistics coordinator in 48 hours. Our previous agency quoted £8,400. Our entire annual subscription costs less than that. The candidate was better qualified than anyone they put forward."
Head of Operations
Distribution & Logistics
"As a candidate I was nervous about the anonymity — but it actually worked in my favour. I got three requests in two weeks. I'd been on the market for six months before this."
Nurse
Healthcare
"We took a chance on a career changer through the Genuine Interest section. Six months in, they're our best hire of the year. They just needed the door opened."
