Most candidates never make it past step one. Here is exactly what happens when you submit to an agency — and how HireSprint ensures you clear every filter.
Your CV is ingested by an ATS system the moment you submit. Any formatting issue, missing keyword, or non-standard section heading can cause automatic rejection.
The ATS scores your CV against the job description. A score below ~70% typically means no human ever reads your application. HireSprint guarantees 80+.
If your CV passes ATS, a recruiter spends 7–12 seconds scanning for seniority, sector experience, and role fit. First impressions are everything.
Agencies submit a shortlist of 3–5 candidates to clients. Your CV needs to be stronger than the other 100+ submissions — not just passable.
HireSprint builds every CV to hit all six of these criteria automatically — so you never wonder if your application clears the bar.
Clean, parseable layout with standard headings. No tables, columns, or graphics that break ATS parsing.
Your CV must include the exact skills and terms the job description uses. Generic CVs fail keyword matching.
Numbers, percentages, and outcomes. Agencies want proof of impact — not a list of responsibilities.
A logical, upward trajectory with no unexplained gaps and clear tenure at each role.
A 3–4 line headline that instantly communicates your value proposition for the specific role.
Up-to-date tech stack, tools, and certifications — matched to what's in demand in the target sector.
Submitting the same CV to every agency is the single biggest mistake job seekers make. Here is what changes when you use HireSprint.

HireSprint understands the specific CV requirements for each sector — from tech stack keywords to regulated profession standards.
Software engineers, data scientists, product managers, and DevOps specialists are among the highest-placed candidates through tech recruitment agencies.
Investment banking, private equity, fintech, and accounting roles. Finance agencies expect precise, error-free CVs with strong quantification.
Clinical, non-clinical, and health tech roles. NHS, private healthcare, and pharma companies recruit heavily through specialist agencies.
Solicitors, paralegals, in-house counsel. Legal recruitment agencies are highly selective — presentation and precision matter enormously.
Digital marketing, brand, performance, and content roles. Agencies want to see campaigns, metrics, and growth outcomes front and centre.
Civil, mechanical, electrical, and structural engineering. Discipline-specific keywords and project scope are what engineering agencies screen for first.
Every job market has its own agency landscape. Find location-specific guidance on how to get placed by recruitment agencies near you.
Most recruitment agencies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter CVs before a consultant ever reads them. Only candidates who pass the ATS keyword and formatting threshold are reviewed. HireSprint guarantees your CV scores 80+ on ATS so it reaches the recruiter — every time.
Agencies want to see a clear career narrative, quantified achievements, relevant keywords for the target role, clean ATS-friendly formatting, and a tailored profile section. Generic CVs are the fastest way to be passed over. HireSprint tailors every section of your CV to the specific role and agency sector.
Especially so. Recruitment agencies see hundreds of CVs per role. A HireSprint-tailored CV stands out not just in ATS scoring but in how clearly it communicates your fit. Agencies notice when a candidate has done the work — and are more likely to put you forward.
In most markets, legitimate recruitment agencies do not charge candidates — they are paid by the employer. If an agency asks you to pay a fee, be cautious. HireSprint helps you prepare for agency submissions at a fraction of the cost of a CV writing service.
HireSprint's full platform tailors your resume to every job, guarantees ATS scores, auto-applies while you sleep, and preps you for every interview. Used by thousands of job seekers landing roles at top companies.
