    The registration  review requires the candidate to make a sales pitch highlighting their own talents, and back that up with a live presentation and discussion with a panel of assessors.

    I feel the process favours those gifted in marketing and social skills.



     




    Human personality play a large part in career success or failure. Those who feel: confident and self assured; have drive and ambition; believe the glass is always half full, will always win against those with opposite personalities.


    So you could get someone with a good degree from a top university, and highly conciensious, may not necessarily rise up the career ladder, and to successful registration, simply because, they lacked confidence. A strong but positive personality; coupled with team building engagement; and a few pints down the pub (or 2 or more) with management and the lads, would be enough to secure job promotion, and ultimately to successful registration.


    ​​​​​This can be the reason, why young females do not choose STEM subjects, to progress towards an engineering career, because it's seen as an aggressive personality role.
