Somewhere + someone
Someo exists because finding work, and finding people, shouldn't feel like shouting into a void.
Someo at a glance
- What Someo is
- Someo is a UK platform that introduces people to workplaces by how they work, learn and get on with others, not by CV or experience.
- Who it's for
- People looking for work who have little or no experience: first jobs, school leavers, career changers and anyone a CV doesn't show well. And small businesses, which Someo calls places, that want to meet people who would suit how they work.
- How it works
- You have a short chat about yourself, five to ten questions, with no questions about past jobs. Someo drafts a description of how you work and you approve it. Someo then introduces people and places whose traits overlap, and a conversation opens only when both have said yes.
- Experience and CVs
- Someo never asks for a CV, and every role on Someo comes with training from the place, so no experience is needed.
- What it costs
- Someo is free for people, always. For a place, setting up and meeting people is free. Publishing an opportunity costs £8 and it stays live for 30 days. There is no subscription and no fee per hire. See pricing.
- Places with nothing advertised
- A place doesn't need a role open to be on Someo. It can set up, see who overlaps and say yes to people, and people can tell a place they'd like to work there.
- Who can join
- Anyone aged 16 or over in the UK. 16 and 17 year olds get extra protections: only verified places can find or message them.
- How AI is used
- Someo is the platform, and AI is one of its tools. An AI assistant runs the setup chat and drafts the words you approve. Who is introduced to whom is decided by Someo's own matching rules, not AI. How Someo uses AI.
- Who runs it
- Someo is run by Someo Ltd, an independent company registered in England and Wales (company number 17462307).
What we believe
Most hiring starts with paperwork and ends with silence. We started somewhere else: with the idea that a person is more than a job title, a workplace is more than a listing, and the best working relationships begin when both sides genuinely want them.
So on Someo, people describe who they are, curious, hands-on, calm under pressure, and businesses describe how their place really runs. We look for the overlap, explain it in plain sentences, and only open a conversation when both sides say yes.
The promises we keep
People never pay. No fees, no premium tiers, nothing to upgrade, ever. Businesses pay a small flat fee per listing, and that's the whole model.
Traits, not scores. Numbers never rate people here. Fit is always described in words, never percentages.
Mutual interest before contact. Nobody sees your details, and nobody can message you, until you've both said yes.
Silence over rejection. A non-match simply stays quiet. There are no turn-down notices, no counters, no dead ends.
