Our Recruitment Criteria Training Contract Trainee Application On Campus Diversity Benefits FAQs

What are we looking for? Our recruits need a wide range of skills to rise to the challenge of the complex work that we do for our clients. We look for the following qualities in particular: An excellent academic record - Our recruits almost invariably have exceptional academic grades, generally at least AAB (or equivalent) in their A-levels (or equivalent), and undergraduate grades at 2.1 or 1st level. In exceptional cases we may invite people to interview or assessment day when they have not achieved such high grades, perhaps because they had mitigating circumstances during a particular set of exams or because they have achieved a lot elsewhere in their lives. A genuine interest in business – All our work is business related, so we want people who can understand our clients’ businesses and be enthusiastic about helping them to succeed. Commitment – We aim high; we want recruits who share our ambition. Personality – We work together in teams, so we look for people who are team players and who will get on well with their colleagues and clients. Communication skills – We need people who can communicate clearly with each other and with clients, whether in person, over the telephone or in writing. Motivation and drive – We want to recruit people who are motivated to get things done, to resolve issues and to find answers.
