Talent acquisition
Dandi's Diversity Lens is an innovative contextual recruitment platform for organisations looking to drive their hiring of more diverse and socially mobile candidates.

About
Dandi's Diversity Lens is a contextual recruitment tool that gives employers a fuller picture of every applicant. Its social mobility assessment builds a detailed understanding of each candidate's background, and it evaluates academic achievements by considering performance relative to their peers and the school they attended.
For each candidate, Dandi provides key contextual data: whether their school performed below the national average at GCSE, contextually adjusted A-level grades, and how their results compare with their school cohort. A social mobility score from 0 to 8 brings together indicators such as school type, university attended, employment during education and socio-economic background, and the data sits alongside candidate records in an employer's ATS or CRM.
Every subscription includes a dedicated account manager who helps employers analyse their ED&I and contextual data, so they can see how socially mobile candidates progress through their recruitment process, alongside a diversity framework for putting that data to best use.
What sets them apart
Dandi's evidence-based methodology gives a more detailed view of an applicant's potential and employment capabilities than grades alone. Its ED&I research team has identified the questions that matter most, such as free school meal eligibility, being first in the family to attend university and Russell Group study, so employers can spot academic outperformers and the most resilient candidates, reduce unconscious bias and discover talent that would otherwise go unnoticed.
How we work together
Many employers in our network have diversity and social mobility targets but no clear way to see a candidate's achievements in context. We bring in Dandi to help them widen their talent pool and make fairer, better-evidenced hiring decisions, particularly in graduate, apprentice and early careers recruitment. We also connect Dandi with our ATS and assessment partners, so contextual data flows straight into the tools recruiters already use.
