Shortlisting

Applications will be reviewed by a panel, who will consider whether the application has clearly evidenced that it meets the person specification criteria for the post.

Feedback

If you're unsuccessful in obtaining an interview, we'll send you an email notification as soon as the shortlisting process has been completed.

Following the interview, feedback can be requested by emailing recruitment@cardiff.ac.uk.

Interviews

Interviews will take as soon as practicable after the closing date, once shortlisting has been completed.

If you're selected for an interview, we'll communicate the venue, timing and format of the interview. If you require any assistance or adaptations to help you attend the interview, please let us know either by responding to the invitation or by emailing recruitment@cardiff.ac.uk
