How to Apply
Application Process
Online application: There are an initial set of screening questions which will determine your eligibility for the role, including your right to work in the UK and your academic background. It is very important that you have your academic grades to hand when completing this form and that you input this information carefully. We will then ask you to tell us about you and why you’d be a great fit for the role!
Video interview: We know it can be nerve wracking having an interview, let alone having a recorded video interview, but don’t worry. The video interview is used to help us understand more about you, your motivation for this role, and demonstrate what you’ve researched about Marsh.
Online testing: We’re looking for graduates who can adapt their learning style, are flexible, and can think broadly. To help us assess this, we utilise an online general intelligence assessment. The assessment takes about 35 minutes to complete and has plenty of practice questions that aren’t timed. Make sure you use these to ensure you’re as prepared as possible for each different component.
1st assessment centre: The first assessment centre will involve a number of activities assessing your team working, presentation, communication, and influencing skills ― these are just some of the skills we’ll be assessing at this stage.
Final stage assessment centre: Here, you’ll have a formal panel style interview, complete a presentation and participate in a networking event with our senior leadership team to help you showcase your achievements and learn as much about your future career as you want to know.
Offer: We’ll call you to confirm your offer and then email your contract to you. You’ll need to complete our background checking process prior to joining.
Start: You’ll complete a one-week induction in our London head office.
