Pathway manages medical, dental, public health, academic, pre-registration pharmacy and healthcare science recruitment programmes and placement activities carried out by offices in England, NHS Education Scotland, the Wales Deanery, the Northern Ireland Medical and Dental Training Agency, the National School of Healthcare Science and various Royal Colleges. Although initially developed to support the recruitment and selection of healthcare professionals, Pathway is highly configurable and capable of managing large-scale or complex recruitment, selection and placement matching activities in any market sector.
Through Pathway, users can configure the recruitment process from start to finish, providing functions for advert creation and publishment in a tailored national or local recruitment programme. These custom programmes can be set up for long-listing, short-listing, self-assessment or selection centres – with customised application forms. Functionality also extends to choreography of the interview environment, allowing for venue and facility management, scheduling, creation of interview scoring criteria and systems for interviewee self-booking functions. The process for selection can also be configured to user specifications – with systems for candidate ranking and rules based allocation – to ensure streamlined shortlisting and selection.
Pathway enhances the user experience for applicants, assessors, referees and employers. From an intuitive dashboard, applicants can access all available online programmes, with the additional feature of preference ranking, and benefit from the document upload facilities and view their progress – with the built-in progress tracker. Assessors can access score applications and have access to support for vertical or horizontal scoring shortlisting, with the flexibility to perform tasks online or offline. Referees are linked into the system via email – with responses seamlessly integrated into the system.
