Screening and accessibility on GetMeHired

How applying and screening work, and the help available.

If the employer you apply to uses BeCareers screening, the screening is a short AI screening conversation about the role, run by BeCareers - about five minutes, in your own time and in your own language. You can ask the employer for adjustments, and people at the employer make the hiring decisions.

Before you start

Asking for adjustments

If the standard screening doesn't work for you, ask the employer you applied to for an adjustment - adjustments are the employer's responsibility. More on asking for adjustments.

Who decides

The employer receives a transcript, a summary and a score. People at the employer read them and make hiring decisions. Some employers set must-have requirements, such as a licence the law requires. If your answers show you don't meet one, your application may be turned down automatically - the employer should tell you, and you can ask a person at the employer to review it, give your view and challenge the decision.

Questions people ask

Can I be assessed another way?

Ask the employer you applied to. Adjustments to the recruitment process, including the screening, are the employer's responsibility.

Does a computer decide whether I get the job?

Not usually. The screening produces a transcript, a summary and a score for the employer, and people at the employer make hiring decisions. The one automatic outcome is when an answer shows you don't meet a must-have requirement the employer has set, such as a licence the law requires. The employer should tell you, and you can ask a person at the employer to review it, give your view and challenge the decision.
