How to apply for an apprenticeship
- Read the advert and job description carefully, to make sure you understand what we're looking for.
- Make sure you're eligible to apply.
- Take time and think about your answers.
- If you're not sure about something or have a problem filling out the form, contact the recruiting manager or a member of our Apprenticeship team.
- Make sure that you tell us in your application how you meet the essential and desirable criteria that are relevant to you.
- Answer all the questions. If something is not applicable to you, tell us that. Don’t leave the section blank.
- Get someone else to read your application before you submit it. They may think of something you forgot or may spot a mistake you missed.
- Make sure you submit your application before the closing date, don’t leave it to the last minute.
