What if I do not meet your entry requirements?

Yes. Please keep us updated of any changes to your circumstances, especially any changes to your contact details.
What is the application process?
Once you have completed the online application form, if you are successful, you will have an online abstract and numerical reasoning test. The next stage is a telephone interview, if you are successful during the interview you will be invited to an assessment day. At the assessment day we have a number of exercises for you to take part in. We will aim to get back to you within the week following your assessment day.
What will my starting salary be?
Our salaries are competitive within the market. Please contact the HR department at the time of interest if you require further information.
How is the salary progressed?
