I applied for the assurance 2020 graduate scheme in November last year but failed the numerical reasoning test. I was wondering if it would be possible to apply for this role again, or if it would be better to wait for the 2021 graduate intake?
Hi James, you are able to re-apply 6 months after a unsuccessful application - can I ask which location you're wanting to apply to?
Hi Lucy, thanks for the info, my original application was for the London office, but I am considering reapplying for either, London, Leeds, Manchester, or Newcastle
I would say give another application ago for 2020 intake when you're eligible (6 months after your date in Nov) and see which locations are still open for applications then - if we've closed for the location you'd prefer I'd recommend getting in early (end of Aug/early Sept) for 2021 start
We sometimes run an april intake so also something to consider (check the website a bit closer to the time to see if we're running for 2021)
Great, thank you for the advice, also do you think it would be a good idea to highlight the fact that I have already applied previously on my next application?
No need to highlight you've already applied
Perfect, thank you
