### 1/5 — Only for UK

*2025-09-09*

Don’t waste time if in US

### 4/5 — Good

*2022-10-31, version 1.8.6*

Very good

### 3/5 — Good enough

*2022-08-17, version 1.8.4*

The app sonfare it’s good enough, however to add your work experience you have to do it manually you can’t add you cv so you don’t have to take so long to add all your work experience but apart from that it’s good

### 5/5 — Mr Colin Bodger

*2022-08-08, version 1.8.4*

Been on the job market for past month. Only ‘real’ roles are here. Other ‘companies’ say roles in your area. Then show jobs in Germany or America

### 1/5 — Intrusive question

*2022-07-18, version 1.8.2*

Re-downloaded the app after not using for a few years and had to update my postcode and contact info. App wouldn’t let me move forward without providing my ethnicity. Not sure how the developers thought this was a good idea but the law in the UK does not require this information, and it’s illegal to discriminate based on this, however having to provide the information allows employers to do so. Additionally, I have emailed customer support several times now to delete my profile and have had no response, and there’s no other way to do it. I’m constantly being emailed about companies messaging me but can’t get customer service to respond to me. Would not recommend this app.

### 2/5 — Is it an Hospitality Recruitment tool only?

*2022-05-31, version 1.8.1*

I have downloaded the app as was advertised on several articles as an hassle-free way to connect with relevant job opportunities. Filled in all the industries, roles, values and salary expectations and preferences and started browsing an infinite list of bar/waiter/chef jobs despite none made sense against my settings/background.
I don’t see the point of asking candidates to set criteria if none can be met. Not to mention the ‘upskilling’ tool which leads to totally unrelated vacancies (management skills = bar staff, team member roles).
I will proceed contacting the app and requesting my data to be permanently erased. Could be useful if you are a recruiter and sourcing for base roles in a big restaurant/pub chains.
Definitely no other purposes, and the only filter you can apply is distance: once again useless if you’re browsing for remote or hybrid roles.
Pointless unless you’re trying to start a career in restaurants and bars.

### 5/5 — One of the best

*2022-03-30, version 1.8.0*

Signed up on the 24th got an interview and job within 3 days. Just a shame there’s not much selection other than hospitality and catering

### 5/5 — H.M

*2022-03-22, version 1.8.0*

### 5/5 — Ease

*2022-02-14, version 1.8.0*

Very easy app to navigate. Got an interview app in minutes
