Entry requirements

The UCAS equivalence of 1 A and 2 B grades at A-Level or other qualification with no grade below B. One subject should be Mathematics, Computing or IT based.



Key skills

You’ll need strong communication and collaboration skills, excellent problem-solving abilities and a drive to learn will spark our interest.

Application Process (Similar To Most Other Apprenticeships)
•Apply (CV, Personal Information, References)
•HireVue(Video recorded interviews)
• Final Interview (Virtual / In-person) ( Research about the company, position, decision based question, and sell your self to the company)
•Decision / Offer

NOTE: SOME MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL STAGES SUCH AS GROUP WORK / ASSESMENT CENTRE BEFORE AN INTERVIEW.

Being honest most degree apprenticeships are located in areas such as Manchester and London so you will have a harder time finding degree Apprenticeships in such a niche area so I would advise you to also apply to places in Manchester and London.

Try and find in Google if there are any local software companies nearby and check if they offer degree Apprenticeships.

Try and find employers in this site by entering the relevant city name:

University:

Best Companies:
JP Morgan
GCHQ
Microsoft
PwC
Goldman Sachs
KPMG
Most Apprenticeships aren't open yet but keep an eye out and make sure to post it here if it isn't already posted.
