What can I inspect if I need adjustments for a job application or interview in Great Britain?
Recruitment processes can create barriers before someone has an employer relationship or access to workplace support.
Scope before you act
Great Britain This scope signal is derived from the governed question wording for orientation only. It is not an eligibility, legal or clinical determination.
Current understanding
Start with the barrier rather than a diagnosis label: timing, interview format, written versus spoken questions, inaccessible tests, sensory environment or communication method. Acas provides the current Great Britain employment-adjustment guidance in the catalogue; Scope and Evenbreak provide disability-focused employment information. ND Oracle does not decide what adjustment is legally required or guarantee that an employer will agree.

Where people may disagree

When this answer should be revisited
- Acas guidance or equality law changes.
- New evidence or services materially change recruitment-access options.
