Platform Features

Everything You Need to Hire Compliantly

From sourcing candidates across 200+ job boards to onboarding new hires with compliance-critical task tracking — every feature is built for regulated employers.

Customisable Hiring Pipeline

Build a multi-stage pipeline tailored to sponsor licence requirements — from Sourced and Applied through Screening, Interview, Assessment, CoS Preparation, Offer, and Onboarding. Every stage is configurable by department, role type, or visa route.

Built-in CoS Preparation Stage

A dedicated pipeline stage unique to sponsor licence holders. Track Certificate of Sponsorship eligibility, salary threshold compliance, RQF level verification, and English language requirements — all before making an offer.

Visual Kanban Board

Drag-and-drop candidates between pipeline stages with a real-time visual board. See at a glance how many applicants sit at each stage, identify bottlenecks, and ensure no compliance step is skipped.

Compliance Scoring Engine

Every application is automatically scored against UKVI compliance criteria — Right to Work status, visa eligibility, SOC code alignment, salary threshold, and document completeness. Red-flag non-compliant candidates before they progress.

Pipeline Analytics & Conversion

Track conversion rates between stages, time-to-hire by department, and compliance pass rates. Identify where candidates drop off and which sourcing channels deliver the highest-quality applicants.

Structured Scorecards

Evaluate candidates consistently with scorecards covering technical skills, communication, culture fit, and — critically for sponsors — qualification evidence, English language, Right to Work, SOC code alignment, and salary compliance.

Our Candidate Channels

How Candidates Come to Us

From Our 500+ Sponsor Client Network

When sponsored workers are affected by licence revocations, business closures, or role changes, they need new compliant sponsors quickly. These are workers who already hold valid Skilled Worker visas, have UK work experience, and understand sponsor compliance requirements.

From The Sponsorship Files Podcast

Our investigative podcast on UK immigration enforcement has over 30,000 downloads. Its audience includes sponsored workers navigating the immigration system, HR professionals managing sponsor duties, and internationally trained professionals seeking legitimate UK sponsorship.

From Our Compliance Community

Our weekly newsletter reaches over 2,500 sponsor licence holders, HR leaders, and care sector professionals. Our live webinars attract hundreds of attendees per session. Candidates who find us through these channels already understand what sponsor compliance means.

Our Vetting Process

How We Vet Candidates Before They Reach You

Immigration Status Verification

Before a candidate's application reaches you, their immigration status is checked. We confirm whether they hold a valid Skilled Worker visa, whether they have existing right to work in the UK, or whether they require a new Certificate of Sponsorship. You see this clearly on every application — no guessing, no surprises at the offer stage.

Right-to-Work Documentation Readiness

We assess whether candidates can provide the documentation your HR team needs on day one: passport, BRP (front and back with NI number), visa vignette with entry stamp, Home Office decision letter, and right-to-work online check status.

Qualifications, Skills & Experience Screening

Candidate profiles are assessed against our QSE checklist. For care sector roles, this includes evidence of the Care Certificate (17 modules), induction completion, English language proficiency, qualifications, references, police clearance, and medical certificates.

Interview-Ready Candidate Profiles

Every candidate profile is structured to support compliant interview documentation. Profiles capture the information you need to conduct a structured, scored interview that meets the Home Office's genuine vacancy and fair recruitment requirements.

What You Get That No Other Platform Provides

Recruitment Audit Trail — Built Automatically

Every step is timestamped and documented: vacancy advertised, candidates received, shortlisting criteria applied, interviews conducted, offer made, CoS assigned. You post and prove.

SOC Code & Salary Validation

Before your listing goes live, we verify the SOC code matches the role and the salary meets the published minimum threshold. This catches the single most common cause of CoS refusals.

Compliance Document Pack

Premium listings include templates built from our audit work: SOC-validated job description, genuine vacancy evidence checklist, interview scoring matrix, and recruitment audit trail template.

Candidates Who Understand Their Obligations

Our candidates come from within the sponsor compliance ecosystem. They understand they must work the hours on their CoS, report changes, and cooperate with compliance processes.

The job board you choose is where compliance risk starts — or stops. The ATS you use determines whether you can prove it.

Our DRAGON AI engine analyses your job requirements (SOC code, salary, qualifications, English language level) and cross-references them against our candidate database. It scores each candidate on compliance readiness — factoring in visa status, document completeness, and eligibility under the Immigration Rules.

Every action in the platform is timestamped and logged — applications, stage movements, interviews, scorecards, offers, and onboarding tasks. You can generate a complete audit report for any candidate or time period, demonstrating your recruitment process meets sponsor licence obligations.
