Pic related is the results from a UK Fire Service whole-time recruitment campaign from 2017.
The service covers two counties, population is divided up 96.4% white british/irish, 3.66% black/minority ethnic (BME)
Assuming advertisements for the campaign reached all members of the population equally and the selection process was carried out "blind" i.e. stripped of all gender/ethnicity/age data - do these results make sense? If not, why not?
Thanks in advance :)
