Our technology helps you find workplace-ready early career candidates who exceed expectations, not just those who tick the usual boxes.
Zero Gravity members are upskilled and mentored, meaning high-quality applications that boost conversion rates. Our technology matches your roles to talent that fits, not just fills, saving you hours of CV sifting.
90% of leaders believe they have critical skills gaps. We help you to future-proof your talent pipeline by giving untapped talent the confidence, career knowledge and opportunity to showcase their skills.
Unsure where to start marketing your brand to Gen Z? Tap into our engaged student community and become the employer they talk about before your competitors do.
We identify ambitious students from the bottom 40% of social advantage, contextualising academic performance and background. We upskill this talent with mentoring, live and on-demand learning content and a likeminded community. The result is a pool of work-ready, ambitious students ready to fill your roles.
Our talent algorithm uses 8 data points to spotlight talented students from low-opportunity backgrounds, reaching UK cold spots that other platforms miss. The algorithm is unintrusive, accurate and builds a full picture of socioeconomic background.
Rich data enables us to match you with the most relevant candidates for mentoring, virtual and in-person activities. Ensure that time and money is spent on candidates most likely to convert.
Zero Gravity has given candidates the skills to thrive, ready for you to hire. Offers land quicker, your cost per hire reduces, and the pipeline rolls into next year.
"Zero Gravity has enabled us to reach exceptional candidates who we would otherwise find hard to reach and convert. The quality of talent is consistently high, bringing new ideas and approaches that enrich HSBC and help us close key skills gaps."
