A company page appears from the first verified review. Every square on a card is a university whose students spoke up, so you can weigh what you read.
How it works
Two minutes. Five questions. Zero drama.
- 1
Sign in
With your university email. That is how we know you are real. After that, your name is never used anywhere.
- 2
Say what it was like
Real work? Hours as promised? Someone supervising you? Felt safe? Learned something? Then a few lines in your own words.
- 3
It goes where it should
Normal stuff joins the company page. Anything serious goes privately to your university, never onto a page. You choose which.
Start your review Or talk it through with the interviewer instead of filling a form.
If something serious happened
It goes to a person who can help. Not onto a page.
Harassed, exploited, discriminated against, or you felt unsafe? Tick one box. What you write goes privately to your university's placement office. It is never published. The company page only ever shows that a concern exists. Not what, not who.
Problem with the agency or programme that placed you, not the company? Say that too. Same door, same privacy.
What the company page shows
- 4.7Five scores, averaged Real work, hours, supervision, safety, learning.
- 82%Would they go back? The question that cuts through everything.
- 1Concerns raised A number only. Never the details.
- “What people said Short, honest, unsigned. Companies reply in public, signed.
Pulse · while you are there
Three taps a week. Your office sees how you are doing. Your words stay yours.
Energy, stress, belonging, and one optional line. Your placement office sees your three numbers each week, for you and for the whole cohort, so they know before it becomes a crisis. The line is yours, unless you tick to share it.
One small AI check reads that line, and only that line, for signs of harassment, exploitation, danger or crisis. If it finds them, a person at your university is told, and so are you. It never replies, never advises. A human does.
We use AI to decide when not to use AI.

Anything your placement office should know?
“They said the overtime was paid. Now they say it is part of the training.”
Sent to a person at your university. They will contact you.
For universities
Hear about a bad placement while your student is still in it.
Membership is free. Register your email domains, paste a roster once, and your students are invited to review. Your placement office receives only what students choose to send you: serious concerns, and feedback about who placed them. You never see ordinary reviews. Students are not being watched. They are being given a door.

The whole picture
1A student who did a placement
Signs in with a university email. Five questions, their own words.
2Ordinary experience → the company page
Appears from the first verified review. Averages, would-return, inclusion, concerns as a count.
3Something serious → the placement office, privately
Never published. The company page shows only a count.
4About who placed me → the university only
A provider, agency or programme. Never touches a company page.
5Pulse, weekly, during the placement
Three numbers and one private line. If the line shows something is wrong, a person at the university is told. So is the student.

Why “Ethos”
Greek for character. The kind of trust that comes from who is speaking. A real student, backed by others who were there, is worth listening to. It also stands for Ethical Hosting.
Why “Commons”
Something a community keeps together and nobody owns alone. Open numbers, published rules, a council of universities watching over it. How Ethos is run.
