If you want to build an outstanding career, and you have determination, ambition and a relevant 2:2 degree or equivalent, there’s nothing stopping you.

Hints & Tips

Here are a few hints and tips to help you when you fill in the online application form:

• Make sure the information you supply makes you stand out from the crowd.
• Don’t forget to demonstrate that you have the following skills and capabilities: Thinking flexibly, building confidence, communicating clearly, influencing others, making things happen and understanding others.
• Don’t simply cut and paste answers from previous forms you have filled in, as not all questions are identical, nor are they looking for the same kind of information.
• Take time to understand each question fully before you write your answer.
• We are looking for well-rounded individuals, so remember to include full details of your outside interests and activities. These say a lot about you.
• Read over your answers carefully. Have you provided the information we asked for?
• Check – and double check – for typos and spelling mistakes.
• Save as you go along in case your internet connection goes down. It is advisable to write your answers in Word first and then cut and paste your answers so you have a back up copy.
