Statutory protection for the job applicant once in a recruitment process

Additional Information

The government should enshrine the obligations of the employer and the right of the applicant, once initiated in the set recruitment process, in statute. Let me propose: Two days given to receipt application and to notify candidate that application has been received. 7 days given to assess application. Once in recruitment process, both obligations and rights should be mentioned by the employer, this then repeated at the end, especially in an interview. Applicant to be notified of outcome within 7 days. Applicant should be given feedback and an opportunity to feedback to recruiter. Mandatory follow up to clarify feedback. Quality form sent to applicant, the contents of which set out in statute. Forms to be kept for two years and findings made public. Figures regarding those embarking on set recruitment process, and of those employed through them, should be sent to government department’s to be published, in order to commend or to name and shame high churn, with low employment rates.
