Description

HEE are seeking to procure a provider organisation, to conduct a robust and relevant analysis of recruitment data to date and over the course of the next three years.

Core themes:

Within the scope of this work the following themes will need to shape analysis and form the structure of regular reporting:

Digital vs traditional face-to-face methods:

- Fairness of recruitment based on protected characteristics
- Fairness of recruitment based on country of primary qualification
- How do face-to-face and digital methods compare in their effectiveness of identifying the most suitable applicants that will continue to be successful in the training programme they have been appointed to?
- How has applicant behaviour changed?
- Are applicants applying for training programmes coming through traditional training routes - how has the dynamics changed. For example, are Foundation trainees progressing straight into core training? Are Core Surgical Trainees progressing directly into higher surgical training, or are these posts being awarded by applicants who have applied through a different route?
- Does level of experience have an impact on fairness and suitability of different recruitment methods (i.e. is digital recruitment fairer in R2 or R1)
- Does one type of recruitment (i.e Digital vs Traditional) work better for certain staff groups over others. I.e. Is digital recruitment more effective in Dental recruitment vs Pharmacy recruitment
