The job search is broken for non-native speakers
You have the skills. You have the degree. But the system wasn't built for you. Here's what's holding you back:
Your CV gets ignored
Most CVs get filtered out before a human ever reads them. If yours wasn't built for ATS screening and the unwritten rules of English-speaking hiring culture, it's invisible — no matter how qualified you are.
Interviews feel terrifying
Interviewing is hard enough. Doing it in your second or third language — under pressure, in English — can make you freeze entirely.
You're stuck in the wrong job
You graduated with big ambitions, but now you're working a job that doesn't match your skills — simply because you couldn't break into an English-speaking role.
Generic advice doesn't work
YouTube tips and ChatGPT templates aren't enough. They don't understand your accent, your culture, or the specific challenges non-native speakers face.

I've been the person on the other side of the table
I'm a recruiter by trade. I've hired for companies like Nintendo and Tencent, as well as fast-moving startups. I've filled roles from CMO and Head of Marketing down to junior PR, data analyst, and community manager positions.
Throughout my career, I kept seeing the same pattern: talented professionals from around the world getting rejected — not because they lacked skills, but because nobody had told them the unwritten rules of how Western employers expect you to present yourself.
So I started helping non-native English speakers practise interviews and bridge that cultural gap. Today, my clients interview at and land roles in organisations like the European Commission, PwC, and Nintendo — as well as fast-growing tech startups. HappyHire is everything I've learned from the hiring side, turned into tools and coaching that actually work.

Questions people ask us
What does HappyHire do?
HappyHire helps non-native English speakers land jobs in English-speaking markets. There are four services: a free AI CV scanner that checks whether applicant tracking systems can read your CV, a £6 AI CV optimiser that rewrites it, a £15 AI interview simulator for voice-based practice with feedback, and 1-on-1 coaching at £60 an hour with a recruiter who has hired for multinational companies.
Who is HappyHire for?
Non-native English speakers applying for jobs in the UK, US, Canada, Australia or the EU — whether you are relocating, already abroad, graduating into a Western job market, or changing careers. The common thread is that our clients are qualified and still getting rejected, usually for reasons that have nothing to do with their English level.
How much does HappyHire cost?
The CV scanner is free with no card required. The CV optimiser is £6 as a one-time payment, the AI interview simulator is £15 one-time with unlimited sessions, and 1-on-1 coaching is £60 per hour. Every paid service carries a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Is the CV scanner really free?
Yes. Upload a PDF or Word CV and you get an ATS compatibility score, keyword gaps and formatting problems back immediately. No payment details, no trial that converts. We ask for an email so we can send the results and occasional career tips, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Why do qualified non-native English speakers get rejected?
Usually one of three things: the CV cannot be parsed or found in the employer's database, experience is written as duties rather than measurable results, or interview answers are structured for a different cultural norm than the scorecard being used to assess them. All three are fixable, and none of them is about your English. Our free guide on this goes through how to tell which one is costing you.
How is a human coach different from the AI simulator?
The simulator is better for volume: unlimited, patient, available at 2am, and consistent about flagging a missing result or a rambling answer. A human coach catches what you cannot hear in your own answers — cultural nuance, tone, how something actually lands with someone who has made hiring decisions. Most people get the most out of using the simulator for repetition and one coaching session for the blind spots.
Who runs the coaching sessions?
Ash, a recruiter who has hired for companies including Nintendo and Tencent as well as startups, filling roles from CMO and Head of Marketing down to junior analyst and community manager. He has delivered 679 coaching and tutoring lessons and holds a 5.0 rating from 20 client reviews. The coaching is built on what he saw from the employer's side of the table: talented international candidates being rejected because nobody had told them the unwritten rules.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes. If you are not happy with any paid service, email hello@wearehappyhire.com within 30 days and we will make it right — no questions asked.
Is my CV data kept private?
Uploaded CV files are processed in real time and are not permanently stored on our servers. Payments go through Stripe, so we never see card details. You can request deletion of your data at any time by emailing hello@wearehappyhire.com.
Do you help with jobs outside the UK?
Yes. The tools and coaching cover the UK, US, Canada, Australia and the EU, and our clients apply from all over the world. The advice is market-specific where it needs to be — CV conventions in Germany and the US, for example, are genuinely different and we treat them that way.
More detail in our free guides, or email hello@wearehappyhire.com.

The right job is out there — but it won't wait. Whether you start with a CV scan or go straight to coaching, every step you take now puts you ahead of the competition.
