Measurable impact
For over a decade, we’ve helped students build the confidence and competence needed to succeed in today’s job market. Partnering with over 300 education institutions and 200 leading employers, we’re closing the gap between study and employment through targeted, measurable support.
Our data shows that students who practise with Shortlist.Me are three times more likely to make the job application shortlist. On average, confidence increases by 30% — and we’re reaching those who need it most: 71% are new to video interviews and 69% hadn’t engaged with their university’s careers service.
To keep improving outcomes, we track practice interview confidence across our partner network each quarter. These insights drive tailored recommendations that help institutions support more students, more effectively.
Job application readiness
Real-world interviews, skills assessments, workplace simulations, aptitude tests, CV optimisation tools and personalised feedback to boost job success rates.
Give students a competitive edge with structured, role-specific interviews designed by employers and occupational psychologists. Our preconfigured simulations mirror real-world recruitment processes, helping students build confidence and competence through authentic practice.
From elevator pitches to industry-specific questions, students can access a broad range of interview types — including exclusive simulations from leading employers. Each activity is supported by best-practice rubrics, self-assessment tools, and AI-powered analysis.
Our AI automatically reviews speech clarity, pace, hesitation and filler words, while feedback reports include personalised development recommendations. Educators and careers teams can embed interviews in the curriculum, assign activities, and generate feedback at scale.
CV Co-Pilot is a next-generation platform built specifically for careers teams, combining five powerful tools to guide students through every stage of the CV journey — from getting started to tailoring for roles and preparing for interview. Each tool is intelligent, adaptive, and customisable to reflect your institution’s standards and real employer expectations.
Unlike traditional CV tools, Co-Pilot is AI-first by design — offering deeper insights, more meaningful feedback, and faster progress. Students can access support wherever they are in their journey, using tools independently or in sequence to build confidence and competence.
Developed in collaboration with careers professionals, CV Co-Pilot gives institutions full control and visibility, with the best value for money on the market. For those looking to switch from an existing tool, our transition guarantee makes it seamless.
Prepare students with aptitude tests designed by the same experts behind SHL, Kenexa, Talent Q and Saville. These simulations closely reflect the real tests used by over 2,000 UK employers — from BT and Deloitte to the NHS — offering the most authentic preparation available.
With 15 test types including numerical, verbal, logical and game-based formats, students can build confidence, improve speed, and develop test-taking strategies in a risk-free environment.
Each attempt includes instant feedback, scoring, and model answers, with benchmarking against thousands of other users. Timed and untimed modes support repeated practice and steady progress.
Help students understand and articulate who they are and what they offer. Our suite of self-assessments covers personality, strengths, values, skills and motivations—equipping students with insights they can use to tailor applications and prepare for interviews with confidence.
Each assessment is built on proven psychological frameworks, including the five-factor model for personality and strengths-based approaches used by employers. Students receive personalised reports highlighting key traits, preferences, and development areas.
With unlimited attempts and the option to share results with careers teams, these tools encourage self-reflection, goal-setting, and stronger alignment between individual attributes and career pathways.
Designed in partnership with Gradconsult, universities, and international communication experts, this programme supports international students in navigating the UK job market with confidence — from part-time roles to graduate careers.
