Statistical analysis of the 2010 Fast Stream intake
INTRODUCTION
The Civil Service Fast Stream is the Civil Servicersquos training and development programme which attracts some of the countryrsquos brightest graduates Fast Streamers are selected for their potential to become the leaders of the future and it is expected that many will reach the Senior Civil Service
The Civil Service recruits to the Fast Stream on the basis of fair and open competition and selection on merit This report summarises recruitment into the Fast Stream in the year ending November 2010
To help you understand the Report
The Fast Stream consists of five separate schemes
The Graduate Fast Stream This is the largest In 2010 applicants could ask to be considered for Central Departments (essentially the Home Civil Service) the Diplomatic Service the Houses of Parliament the Science and Engineering Fast Stream and the European Fast Stream Because the Graduate Fast Stream accounts for such a large proportion of each years intake into the Fast Stream the Report focuses on it separately as well as on the Fast Stream as a whole
The Economist Scheme
The Statistician Scheme
The Technology in Business Scheme
The HR Scheme (offered for the first time in 2010)
The Economist Statistician Technology and HR schemes all involve a test of professional aptitude but in all cases assessment of suitability for the Fast Stream itself is aligned with that of the Graduate Fast Stream
All Graduate Fast Stream options except Central Departments apply some form of final selection procedure after the Assessment Centre before deciding whom to recommend for appointment However all candidates who achieve the pass mark
2
at the Assessment Centre have reached the required standard and are guaranteed a place in the Central Departments option if they want it
There is also an annual competition (the In-Service competition) for serving civil servants who wish to join the Fast Stream This too is included in the Report
FAST STREAM SELECTION PROCESS
The Cabinet Office in partnership with Parity plc managed the development and delivery of the 2010 competition As always our priority was to recruit the best talent available to us while building on past achievements to make Fast Stream recruitment as diverse efficient attractive and accessible as possible The key considerations were
Speed and efficiency We use the latest online selection technology and seek constantly to develop it so that it is as fast and efficient as possible We aim to complete the process in the shortest possible time and to make job offers to the best candidates as quickly as possible
Fairness and objectivity The Civil Service maintains and must be seen to maintain the highest standards of open and fair recruitment The Fast Stream selection process is designed with this aim in mind and is subject to a thorough annual check on compliance with the Civil Service Commissionersrsquo Principles of fair and open competition We do everything possible to ensure that our assessment methods are scientifically robust psychometrically valid and capable of withstanding close scrutiny
Diversity and best practice We are determined to reach out further to minority groups who have not always been proportionately represented in the Fast Stream By ensuring that key stages are online we aim to achieve greater transparency and objectivity and also allow candidates to drive themselves through each stage of the process using a personalised management support system
The selection process consists of the following stages
Register interest on Fast Stream website
Online self-assessment
Application and online tests
Invigilated electronic in-tray exercise (the ldquoe-Trayrdquo)
Fast Stream Assessment Centre
Candidates are ranked in order of merit based on a final mark awarded at the Assessment Centre All candidates successful and unsuccessful receive detailed feedback on their performance at the Assessment Centre
3
The Fast Stream competency framework Fast Stream candidates are assessed against six competencies determined by the needs of the Civil Service They are spread across three skill sets as follows
SKILL SET
COMPETENCY
DELIVERY SKILLS Drive for results Learning and improving
INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY Decision-making Constructive thinking
INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Building productive relationships Communicating with impact
FAST STREAM RECRUITMENT IN 2010
APPLICATIONS
The number of registrations (ie initial expressions of interest) on the Fast Stream website increased by 43 from 2009 (from 22455 to 32061) It is assumed that this surge in interest was largely driven by the economic downturn The number of actual applications (ie those who after completing the online self-assessment proceeded to take the online tests) also rose by 46 (from 14911 to 21761)
Chart 1 shows the number of applications submitted to the Fast Stream since 1998 The fall in 2004 reflects the introduction of online self-assessment which has proved effective in discouraging unrealistic applications Since then the popularity of the Fast Stream as a career choice has continued to increase returning application numbers to pre-2004 levels

DIVERSITY
By respecting and valuing differences the Civil Service is better able to ensure that policies and services respond to the needs of the society it serves We therefore aim to build an increasingly diverse workforce with the richest possible mix of talent and to ensure that all levels of the Civil Service benefit from better representation of women colleagues from ethnic minorities and those with a disability Because many Fast Stream entrants progress to the Senior Civil Service the Fast Stream is well placed to support this aim
Tables showing the diversity of the Fast Stream intake every year since 1998 are provided in the main statistical analysis The following are headline figures from the 2010 competition including a comparison between the 2009 and 2010 intakes

at the Assessment Centre have reached the required standard and are guaranteed a place in the Central Departments option if they want it
There is also an annual competition (the In-Service competition) for serving civil servants who wish to join the Fast Stream This too is included in the Report
FAST STREAM SELECTION PROCESS
The Cabinet Office in partnership with Parity plc managed the development and delivery of the 2010 competition As always our priority was to recruit the best talent available to us while building on past achievements to make Fast Stream recruitment as diverse efficient attractive and accessible as possible The key considerations were
Speed and efficiency We use the latest online selection technology and seek constantly to develop it so that it is as fast and efficient as possible We aim to complete the process in the shortest possible time and to make job offers to the best candidates as quickly as possible
Fairness and objectivity The Civil Service maintains and must be seen to maintain the highest standards of open and fair recruitment The Fast Stream selection process is designed with this aim in mind and is subject to a thorough annual check on compliance with the Civil Service Commissionersrsquo Principles of fair and open competition We do everything possible to ensure that our assessment methods are scientifically robust psychometrically valid and capable of withstanding close scrutiny
Diversity and best practice We are determined to reach out further to minority groups who have not always been proportionately represented in the Fast Stream By ensuring that key stages are online we aim to achieve greater transparency and objectivity and also allow candidates to drive themselves through each stage of the process using a personalised management support system
The selection process consists of the following stages
Register interest on Fast Stream website
Online self-assessment
Application and online tests
Invigilated electronic in-tray exercise (the ldquoe-Trayrdquo)
Fast Stream Assessment Centre
Candidates are ranked in order of merit based on a final mark awarded at the Assessment Centre All candidates successful and unsuccessful receive detailed feedback on their performance at the Assessment Centre
3
The Fast Stream competency framework Fast Stream candidates are assessed against six competencies determined by the needs of the Civil Service They are spread across three skill sets as follows
SKILL SET
COMPETENCY
DELIVERY SKILLS Drive for results Learning and improving
INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY Decision-making Constructive thinking
INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Building productive relationships Communicating with impact
FAST STREAM RECRUITMENT IN 2010
APPLICATIONS
The number of registrations (ie initial expressions of interest) on the Fast Stream website increased by 43 from 2009 (from 22455 to 32061) It is assumed that this surge in interest was largely driven by the economic downturn The number of actual applications (ie those who after completing the online self-assessment proceeded to take the online tests) also rose by 46 (from 14911 to 21761)
Chart 1 shows the number of applications submitted to the Fast Stream since 1998 The fall in 2004 reflects the introduction of online self-assessment which has proved effective in discouraging unrealistic applications Since then the popularity of the Fast Stream as a career choice has continued to increase returning application numbers to pre-2004 levels

Chart 1 ndash Applications to the Fast Stream 1998-2010
DIVERSITY
By respecting and valuing differences the Civil Service is better able to ensure that policies and services respond to the needs of the society it serves We therefore aim to build an increasingly diverse workforce with the richest possible mix of talent and to ensure that all levels of the Civil Service benefit from better representation of women colleagues from ethnic minorities and those with a disability Because many Fast Stream entrants progress to the Senior Civil Service the Fast Stream is well placed to support this aim
Tables showing the diversity of the Fast Stream intake every year since 1998 are provided in the main statistical analysis The following are headline figures from the 2010 competition including a comparison between the 2009 and 2010 intakes
(i) Gender
Overall
In 2010 the proportion of applications from women rose to 460 per cent from 435 per cent in 2009 The proportion of successful women candidates also rose to 462 per cent from 428 per cent in 2009
In the Graduate Fast Stream 453 per cent of applicants and 497 per cent of successful candidates were women [See Chart 2]

The fall in 2004 reflects the introduction of online self-assessment which has proved an effective mechanism for discouraging unrealistic applications Since then
an application is deemed to have been submitted only if the applicant has completed the self-assessment and proceeds to take the online tests

The Fast Stream competency framework Fast Stream candidates are assessed against six competencies determined by the needs of the Civil Service They are spread across three skill sets as follows

INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Building productive relationships Communicating with impact
FAST STREAM RECRUITMENT IN 2010
APPLICATIONS
The number of registrations (ie initial expressions of interest) on the Fast Stream website increased by 43 from 2009 (from 22455 to 32061) It is assumed that this surge in interest was largely driven by the economic downturn The number of actual applications (ie those who after completing the online self-assessment proceeded to take the online tests) also rose by 46 (from 14911 to 21761)
Chart 1 shows the number of applications submitted to the Fast Stream since 1998 The fall in 2004 reflects the introduction of online self-assessment which has proved effective in discouraging unrealistic applications Since then the popularity of the Fast Stream as a career choice has continued to increase returning application numbers to pre-2004 levels

Chart 1 ndash Applications to the Fast Stream 1998-2010
DIVERSITY
By respecting and valuing differences the Civil Service is better able to ensure that policies and services respond to the needs of the society it serves We therefore aim to build an increasingly diverse workforce with the richest possible mix of talent and to ensure that all levels of the Civil Service benefit from better representation of women colleagues from ethnic minorities and those with a disability Because many Fast Stream entrants progress to the Senior Civil Service the Fast Stream is well placed to support this aim
Tables showing the diversity of the Fast Stream intake every year since 1998 are provided in the main statistical analysis The following are headline figures from the 2010 competition including a comparison between the 2009 and 2010 intakes
(i) Gender
Overall
In 2010 the proportion of applications from women rose to 460 per cent from 435 per cent in 2009 The proportion of successful women candidates also rose to 462 per cent from 428 per cent in 2009
In the Graduate Fast Stream 453 per cent of applicants and 497 per cent of successful candidates were women [See Chart 2]

DIVERSITY
By respecting and valuing differences the Civil Service is better able to ensure that policies and services respond to the needs of the society it serves We therefore aim to build an increasingly diverse workforce with the richest possible mix of talent and to ensure that all levels of the Civil Service benefit from better representation of women colleagues from ethnic minorities and those with a disability Because many Fast Stream entrants progress to the Senior Civil Service the Fast Stream is well placed to support this aim
Tables showing the diversity of the Fast Stream intake every year since 1998 are provided in the main statistical analysis The following are headline figures from the 2010 competition including a comparison between the 2009 and 2010 intakes
(i) Gender
Overall
In 2010 the proportion of applications from women rose to 460 per cent from 435 per cent in 2009 The proportion of successful women candidates also rose to 462 per cent from 428 per cent in 2009
In the Graduate Fast Stream 453 per cent of applicants and 497 per cent of successful candidates were women [See Chart 2]
Overall 21 per cent of both male and female applicants were successful
