Charlotte Hillenbrand
Executive Director of Digital & Innovation
Comic Relief

Why choose Applied?

"I can categorically say Applied works. We reviewed CVs after we hired and there were some great hires that would not have been advanced. Some people just don't have the same support creating a CV and it's not reflective of their skills or their passion."

Julia Rabin

Future VC

Why choose Applied?

"It can be so easy to dismiss tech that can help when you’re a small team with limited budgets, but we quickly found out it ‘cost’ us around 1.5 days for every hire before Applied. This was a lot of resources to waste, but the opportunity cost for that very skilled person was also huge!"
