For candidates who deserve a clear answer.
Most rejection emails say nothing. A structured feedback request changes the dynamic — it signals that you know your rights, that you are keeping a record, and that you expect a professional response.
You do not need legal training to use this service. You need a few minutes to answer the questionnaire and the confidence to send what EquHire generates.
You applied for a role and received a rejection with no explanation of why.
You reached an advanced stage — interview, assessment, or final round — and were not told what went wrong.
You suspect the decision was inconsistent with the job requirements or your demonstrated experience.
You want to create a professional record before deciding whether to take further action.
You want to respond professionally rather than emotionally to an outcome that felt unfair.
Legal advice, representation, or ongoing tribunal proceedings. This service supports lawful self-help use only. If you require legal advice, consult a qualified and regulated legal professional.
Personalised correspondence, generated from your answers.
This is not a generic template. Every document is generated from the information you provide — the employer, the role, the stage you reached, and what you want to know. The output is professional, clear, and specific to your situation.
Feedback Request Email Draft
A clear, professional email requesting meaningful feedback and the criteria used to assess your application. Personalised with your details, the role, and the stage you reached. Professional in tone — firm without being aggressive.
Follow-Up Clarification Draft
A second email draft to use if the initial reply is generic, automated, or incomplete. Politely pushes for specific, substantive feedback without escalating unnecessarily.
Send-and-Log Record
A simple record of what was sent and when, for your own reference and evidence trail. Essential if you need to escalate to ACAS or the ICO at a later stage.
Next Steps Guidance
Clear guidance on what to do if no reply is received within a reasonable timeframe, including when and how to escalate — and which EquHire service supports each next step.
Three steps. Under ten minutes.
Purchase, answer the questionnaire, and receive your personalised correspondence — all within your secure EquHire account. You send it yourself, in your own time.
