WTW Graduate Scheme 2026

I'm in the process of applying to WTW for their actuarial schemes for a 2026 start. They advertise locations as separate applications (Leeds, Manchester, etc.). Has anyone applied before and knows if you can apply for more than one location (+ if you can apply for both retirement and P&C/life)?
Or if anyone generally has tips for actuarial/WTW applications, I'd be very grateful!

The official website states: "Due to the large number of applications we receive, we encourage candidates to apply to only one position per recruitment cycle to avoid duplications at the interview stage."

Hi, I also applied 2026 Retirement Actuarial Graduate Trainee Consultant Programme, but I found this program has been closed, replaced by 2026 Actuarial Insurance Consulting Graduate Programme, Property & Casualty or Life - Reigate/London/Cambridge. Does this suggest that retirement is no longer considered?

I'm not sure about London, but I applied to the retirement programme in Leeds for 2026 and that was still open?

It has been closed for Leeds.

Do you guys have any update? I found my application status has changed to "under review" (I think it was "under consideration" before, probably I'm wrong).

I also emailed the helpdesk to ask why some locations (Leeds, Edinburgh, etc.) closed after just a week, whether it’s because they already hit their quota of applications or if those locations aren’t being considered anymore. I haven’t had a response yet, and it might take a while🥲

Definitely don't quote me on this, but from what I saw in older threads, some people’s applications went from “under consideration” to “not selected” if their online test score wasn’t high enough, so probably rejected automatically. If it says “under review,” it might mean you passed that first check and now someone’s actually looking at your application.

Thank you so much for your explanation, that means I have passed the video interview?

I think it means you’ve passed the initial AI checks and now an actual member of staff is reviewing your application, so it’s not a final yes/no verdict yet. That’s just my take though, I could be wrong!

Thank you so much bro!!! May I ask if your application status has changed to Under Review?

Do you have any tips for the on demand interview. I just wanted to know if there are any psychometric test aspects

It’s not psychometric, it’s just a couple of quick numerical reasoning questions followed by the video interview. You can find some past questions on Glassdoor that are often similar to what you might get (3 minutes per question), but I think everyone gets slightly different ones, all on the same theme. Good luck! Which office did you apply for?
