Process
Pause is committed to working in an anti-racist way and have recently been developing our recruitment processes to remove implicit bias, whether that is based on race, gender, sexuality or employment history. We are working with Applied to enable this. Your application answers will be reviewed blind to ensure fairness. Your responses will be randomised and the shortlisting panel will not see any identifying details about you – and will only see one answer at once so please ensure you answer each question fully. Your CV will only be seen after shortlisting if you are invited to an interview.
In responding to the questions on Applied, please be aware that we will be looking for examples of your work, and a focus on anti-discriminatory practice and women’s experience throughout.
If you have any questions or concerns about this process, please email recruitment@pause.org.uk.
