Previous years' data

We have published data on four main areas from recent years of recruitment, this includes:

• Competition ratios - application numbers divided by the total number of posts - see the 'Round 1' tab on this page. Additionally, information about the relative competitiveness of each region, based on the ranking of candidates accepting offers, can be found in the document library.

• Short-list scores - average scores, the distribution nationally and, where applicable, information about the minimum score needed to qualify for interview - refer to the document library. 

• Total scores - the national average total score awarded after the full recruitment process (application and interview), including a graph showing the distribution of scores nationally - refer to the document library.

• Fill rates - the number of vacancies available and number filled by region -  refer to the document library.
