Request

Request Received: 13 April 2021

I am looking to find applicant diversity data on the UKRI Future Leaders scheme. I have viewed the data available (attached) on the UKRI website, but this does not appear to provide data broken down to rejection/success at the interview stage. Given the (i) critical importance of the interview process in these applications, and (ii) the room for unconscious bias in face-to face interviews, I am keen to be able to see that data as well.

Would you be able to share with me this information, or give me links to the relevant pages on your website in case I have missed seeing them?
