Every Candidate Seen™
Join us in bringing fairer, more inclusive hiring practices to more people.


Hiring should recognise potential - not hide it
Too many capable people are overlooked because their age, background or career history doesn’t fit what traditional hiring systems expect. High application volumes and conventional screening practices can filter people out based on keywords, job titles, and expected CV patterns before their capabilities are understood.
The Every Candidate Commitment brings together employers who believe candidates should be considered for what they can contribute - not simply how well their CV fits a conventional pattern.
A shared commitment to better hiring
Every Candidate Seen Advocates support hiring practices that look beyond conventional career paths, give people a meaningful opportunity to demonstrate their capability and keep candidates informed throughout the process.
You don’t need to have solved every part of hiring to join. You simply need to believe it can be better - and be willing to take practical steps towards making that happen.

“Seen” doesn’t mean selected. It means meaningfully considered - not filtered out before your capability is understood.
The
pledge.
seen
We believe people should be considered for what they can bring - not discounted because of their age, background or career history.
We support hiring that looks beyond the conventional CV, gives candidates a fair opportunity to demonstrate their capability and continually works to remove unnecessary barriers to opportunity.
That means considering every candidate against what the role requires, rather than relying on keywords or conventional career patterns to decide who progresses.
Supporting the pledge is free. Progress starts with a commitment.
