By applying for a research role at the LSE, we know from the outset that you are producing research to an excellent standard that is contributing to public debate on real world issues. If you weren’t, you probably wouldn’t be considering us as the right place for your next research role.
We take all applications to work at the LSE very seriously. There will be some variances in recruitment and selection methods, as appropriate to the field of research and its associated job market, but there will be some things all our recruitment processes will have in common.
You can expect that everything you submit, from your CV to written examples of your work, to references provided in advance, will be read carefully and considered fully by a wide range of your peers and potential colleagues.
If shortlisted for a role, you can expect to be invited to an interview, which is as much an opportunity for you to decide if the LSE is right for you as for us to assess whether you are right for the LSE.
You can be assured that the recruitment process will be a fair and objective one. The LSE positively encourages a diverse and inclusive workforce, with excellence at its core.
Once you have found the right vacancy for you via our jobs system an outline of the specific recruitment process for that role will be provided in the vacancy details.
