For companies
Which roles can I hire for?
At launch we interview account executives and customer success managers, project managers in digital delivery, and AI builders, in English. Mandarin Chinese is only for candidates you upload, on a role you set to Mandarin. Cantonese isn't offered.
Can I bring my own applicants?
Yes. Upload their CVs on your role and email each one the intake questions. Once they answer, send the interview invite. They take the same AI interview as our candidates. If you pass over one, they hear of your decision only if you choose to tell them.
How much does it cost?
Joining is free. You pay 10% of the hire's annual base salary, charged on hire. If the hire does not last 90 days, ROUND.1 finds a replacement at no new fee. Agencies charge 15–25%.
What is the interview like?
A video call with an AI interviewer, about 20 minutes, 30 at most. Our AI interviewer speaks 42 languages. Interviews open in English and Mandarin first; Mandarin is for applicants you upload to a role you set to Mandarin. Three questions are the same for everyone, then questions on each skill the role needs. Each applicant gets one attempt, and if the call drops they can rejoin within 30 minutes. They need a computer with a camera and microphone, in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge.
For candidates
Do I pay anything?
Free for candidates at every stage, including when you are hired.
Will my current employer find out?
Not if you block it. A blocked company never sees your profile. Other companies get your name only after you say yes to them, and a yes cannot be taken back.
