Discuss your disability

We are very proud to be a Disability Confident leader. As part of our commitment, we offer all applicants the opportunity to be considered under the Guaranteed Interview scheme. By opting-in to this scheme, you are disclosing that you have a disability solely for the purpose of the interview guarantee. You can request this in the Equality of Opportunity section of your application. You can also let us know if you need any adjustments to be made to the interview/selection process.

Reasonable adjustments to our recruitment process

If you would like to discuss any reasonable adjustments we can make to the application process, please get in touch with our recruitment team
 
Adjustments could include, but are not limited to, availability of job descriptions and application forms in different formats such as large print or braille; correspondence or anything you may need when visiting us for an interview (for example, additional time for those with dyslexia); a job coach to attend and support you or the provision of assistive technology. 

Disclosing your disability

There is no legal obligation for you to disclose that you have a disability (unless there are very specific health and safety risks). However, you may wish to inform your Recruitment Coordinator of your disability if you are shortlisted for interview, so we can support you and ensure any reasonable adjustments are put in place.

Browser Extensions

Browser extensions are tools that can be helpful to make our job application process more accessible. They can improve readability, comprehension and overall user experience. The effectiveness of extensions can vary depending on your individual needs and preferences so it's best to try them out to see which ones work best for you.

If you need any specific adjustments to complete your job application please contact your Recruitment Coordinator or email us at jobs@bath.ac.uk
