Recruitment Guidance - Candidate Management
Ensuring that the right candidates are selected for policing roles is essential. Employing the right selection process is essential to make the most efficient use of money, time and resources and can have the following benefits:
-
Reduce the probability of selecting individuals who will not perform at their jobs effectively.
-
Better value at the national Assessment process
-
Minimises disproportionality in outcomes for underrepresented groups
-
Maximise candidates potential by supporting, them and ensuring a positive candidate experience.
It is known that not all forces handle their recruitment process in the same way in the early process and therefore causes discrepancies in the way people are recruited in the police force. A sifting solution is being undertaken that aims to help effectively mange candidates. Whilst this is still on-going, this document aims to help police forces consider some key principles for an effective end-to-end recruitment process.
Each area should be considered:
-
Recruitment strategy
-
Attraction campaign and positive action
-
Registration
-
Force selection
-
National Assessment Process
-
Post-assessment process activity
-
Appointment
Monitoring of each area and collaborating with other learning providers are critical to the improvement, maximisation and best practise of the selection process.
Cyber Security: Supply chain security
Step 10 from the 10 steps to Cyber Security covers how and why it is sensible to collaborate with your suppliers and partners
Most organisations rely upon suppliers to deliver products, systems, and services. An attack on your suppliers can be just as damaging to you as one that directly targets your own organisation. Supply chains are often large and complex, and effectively securing the supply chain can be hard because vulnerabilities can be inherent, introduced or exploited at any point within it. The first step is to understand your supply chain, including commodity suppliers such cloud service providers and those suppliers you hold a bespoke contract with. Exercising influence where you can, and encouraging continuous improvement, will help improve security across your supply chain.
