Whilst the proportion of applicants who are White has dropped slightly since last year, this group of applicants continue to be more successful at each stage than applicants from all Black and ethnic minority groups.

The proportion of applicants who are female has risen by over 3% since 2006/07. Whilst male applicants are as successful as female applicants at the shortlisting stage, female applicants continue to be more successful in being offered posts than male applicants. The summary report covers all staff groups so that slight changes in overall gender of applicants may be due to a different mix of posts being advertised.
The success rate of applicants with disabilities has risen considerably since last year, with comparatively more disabled applicants being shortlisted and offered posts than non-disabled applicants.

As in previous years, the percentage of applicants from Black and ethnic minority groups in every faculty and in central departments was higher than the total percentage of current Black and ethnic minority staff across the University (5.0%).

However in central departments and all faculties other than Health and Social Science (where the differences were minimal), the percentage of applicants from Black and ethnic minority groups who were shortlisted or offered the post was lower than the percentage of White applicants being shortlisted or offered the post.

In all faculties and central departments there were more female applicants than male applicants. Whilst the comparative proportion of men and women being shortlisted varied, in all faculties and central departments women were more likely to offered posts than men.

Table 26 shows that the proportion of disabled applicants that were shortlisted varied across the faculties, with disabled applicants being more likely to be shortlisted than non-disabled applicants in 3 faculties and less likely in the other 2 faculties and central departments.
In 3 faculties disabled applicants were less likely to be offered the post than non-disabled applicants, and the reverse was true in the other 2 faculties and central departments. The 3 faculties that offered comparably more disabled applicants posts than non-disabled applicants were the same 3 faculties that shortlisted comparably less disabled applicants than non-disabled applicants.
