Job search and inclusion with That's Y: what to know

That's Y is listed in Italy as a staffing business, but its description says it produces a podcast about job search, workplace inclusion and human resources for young people and company managers. It reads more like a media project than a conventional agency. Ask directly whether it places candidates before treating it as a source of vacancies.

Who pays That's Y

Paid by the employer, not by you.

That's Y earns a fee from the company that hires you, usually a share of your first-year salary or a margin on your contract rate. Their client is that company.

What that means for you

Expect roles that fit their open vacancies before roles that fit your plan. Ask which company a role is for before your CV goes anywhere, and apply direct where you can.

What does That's Y actually offer job seekers?

The description says That's Y produces a podcast covering job search, workplace inclusion and human resources, aimed at young people and at the managers who hire them. Its sector tags include marketing, software, media and education, which fit a content-led business. It is not described as placing candidates in roles, so any vacancy work should be confirmed. Ask whether they run listings, introductions or only editorial content.

Where you meet

How could a young job seeker use what That's Y publishes?

Episodes on job search and workplace inclusion can help you prepare for applications, interviews and your first weeks in a job. In Italy, many young people start with internships, apprenticeships or fixed-term contracts, and hearing managers' views can clarify what employers expect. The exchange here is informational, so treat it as learning rather than a selection process. If you get in touch, ask what they can and cannot do for you.

What should you expect if you engage with That's Y?

Expect content and conversation rather than a guaranteed placement, and check whether any service has a cost. Ask how your personal information is used, especially if you send a CV or join a mailing list. Italian and EU data protection rules apply to personal data, so ask how it is stored and how to request deletion. Keep any agreement or promise made to you in writing.

Your side

How can you get the most from That's Y as a young candidate?

Listen to episodes that match your stage, such as first applications, graduate recruitment or returning to work. Note advice you could test in your own search, like how to frame your CV or prepare for an inclusive interview. Use the content to build your own list of questions for employers. If you want direct help, ask for a clear description of any service before sharing personal details.

Is That's Y the right resource for your job search?

It can suit you if you want practical, honest talk about job search and inclusive workplaces, especially as a young person entering work. It may be less useful if you need a conventional recruiter to submit your CV to employers. Combine its content with your own applications and with an established agency or careers service. Judge it by how much it helps your next concrete step.

Frequently asked questions

Does That's Y charge candidates for placement?

Its description does not mention placement fees, so ask directly and request the terms in writing before paying anything. Be cautious of any offer that promises interviews in return for payment. Read any agreement carefully before you accept it.

Should you send your CV to That's Y?

Only send it if you understand what will happen with it. Ask who will see it, whether it will be shared with employers, and how long it will be kept. Sending it to an unclear recipient can expose your personal details.

What happens to personal information from episodes or emails?

Information you share, such as an email address for updates, should be used only for the purposes you agreed. Under Italian and EU data protection rules you can ask what is held and request deletion. If you no longer want mailings, unsubscribe.

Do you need to go through That's Y to apply for jobs?

No, you can apply directly to employers at any time. The podcast can serve as background information without any formal link to a recruiter. Keep your applications organised, whatever the source of your information.
