The selection process explained

1. Applications

Once you have decided which track of the FLDP is right for you, you’ll need to apply directly to the programme you’re interested in.

In all cases, the process begins with an online form asking you about your degree, work experience, and any extra-curricular activities you’ve been involved in. You’ll select options from a series of drop-down menus, but there are several points when you can tell us any other important details.

2. Online testing

The next step is to complete a series of online tests designed to test your numerical and verbal reasoning skills.

3. Telephone Interviews

If you are successful in the tests, we will invite you to undertake a telephone interview so we can explore the opportunities you have had to display the leadership behaviours that we look for. At this stage we’ll also require you to upload a one-page CV, so take time to be absolutely sure it showcases the experience and capabilities that will make you a success here. (We ask you to keep it down to one page to show us how concise, focused and adaptable you are).

4. Assessment centre

The final stage is an assessment centre designed to rigorously assess your leadership potential, your intellectual ability and the core behaviours outlined in the Who we look for section. Be assured, we’ll judge you on your aptitude for the job and nothing else.

The application deadline for all of our programmes is 12 noon GMT on 30th December. Vacancies will close once places are filled so do make sure you get your application in early.

Good luck!
