Recruitment Data Analysis

Statistical Analysis In Recruitment

MDRS has procured a provider to conduct an external review and provide impartial analysis on digital selection methods that were introduced by HEE and the other nations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Work is currently underway by the provider and will be critical in forming an evidence base that will inform and influence decisions with regards to the future of national recruitment and selection including the impact on those with protected characteristics.

The first draft report is expected in the summer.

Specialty Recruitment Complexity Review

Specialty recruitment and selection processes have developed over the years, with many using multiple ways of assessing applicants, together with complex methods for calculating the final selection score.

There is concern that some of the developments that have taken place may have contributed to human error in processing selection scores due to the complexity involved.

Having recently procured an external provider, work is currently being undertaken to develop a model that allows for specialty selection processes to be compared with each other and to attribute a RAG rating to each of the processes.

The first draft report and findings are expected in the summer.
