InvestIN offers something I have never seen before so I signed my daughter up for the Young Doctor summer programme. She had a brilliant time and especially enjoyed her time in the hospital with the doctors. She also has some good ideas now of what area of medicine she wants to specialise in and how to apply. I am very happy with our experience!

Young Doctor Summer Experience 2024

The friends I made during the Summer Camp were nice and the staff were so supportive. I really enjoyed listening to the lectures and learning more about the aspects of computer science which are outside of the school curriculum.

Chayos, Young Computer Scientist Summer Experience 2024

The Summer Experience not only gave me an amazing idea of what a career in medicine entails, but mostly gave me an amazing taste of university life in London, and I absolutely loved it!

Saffron, The Young Doctor Summer Experience 2023

One of the best things I've ever done - the Young Vet Summer Experience was really helpful, engaging and fun. I would really recommend it if you're looking for help with getting into vet school.

Mei, The Young Vet Summer Experience 2023

It was an incredible experience and my child thoroughly enjoyed learning about the financial industry from experienced professionals - he came home every day ecstatic with what he had done and excited for the next!

# data[].attributes.body
Hi everyone

At the British Racing School we run a Flexible Learning Programme for students in years 10 and 11 which leads to a Level 1 Diploma in Horse Care and I am getting in touch ahead of our next intake in September 2026. It’s a two year course offered to 14-16 year olds on a day’s release from school each week during term-time and who already ride. During their time at the School students ride and attend classroom-based and practical sessions to improve their riding, equine and racing-related knowledge. At the end of the course and having achieved their Level 1 Diploma, students have the opportunity to start a Level 2 Apprenticeship in a racing yard where they will get on-the-job experience and be a paid member of the team.

There is more information in the attached and if you have any pupils that you think might be suitable / interested in joining the next group of Year 10s starting in September 2026, please let us know.

Best wishes

How do I apply?

When you find a vacancy that you wish to apply for, click the 'Apply now' button. You'll be offered the choice of applying using your LinkedIn profile or alternatively, you can upload your CV to your application.

You'll receive an email acknowledging your application and one of our dedicated team will review your application personally.

We're proud to be a Disability Confident employer. If you encounter any accessibility challenges during your online application, please let us know by contacting: yourfuture@edfenergy.com and one of the recruitment team will be in touch.

Are there any issues applying for roles using an iCloud email address?

We've identified some infrequent issues when applicants apply via an iCloud email address. To ensure you receive all communications, we recommend using an alternative email provider to apply for roles where possible.

I wanted to apply for a position I saw, but it's not listed anymore - can I still apply?

All of our Early Careers roles do have a closing date listed, however, occasionally, we may close roles early if we reach our application numbers. If you're interested in a vacancy which has closed, please contact: yourfuture@edfenergy.com and the team will help you. You can also register your interest on our careers site, so that you get notified of any future roles which may suit your requirements.

How can I check the status of my application?

We always respond to applications as soon as possible, and we will aim to update you on progress within 7 working days, however, you can also monitor progress on your application through your EDF profile on the careers site, or by emailing us for an update at: yourfuture@edfenergy.com.

Who can I contact for feedback on my application?

Due to the high number of applications that we receive, we're unable to provide detailed feedback to candidates who are not successful at application or online testing stage. After online testing, you'll receive a personalised feedback report, which will guide you on your areas of strength and areas of development for the future. If you have any questions, or would like feedback following other stages of the process, please contact us at: yourfuture@edfenergy.com

Do you accept speculative applications?

Instead of accepting speculative CVs, we advise you to register your details on our careers website and set up alerts for future opportunities which will be relevant to you.

What do you do with my personal details?

At EDF, we respect your privacy and value the trust you put in us when you share your personal details with us. Find more information on what data we collect and why we collect this data from you:EDF privacy and cookie policy.

Who do I contact for queries about Graduate Programmes, Industrial Placements, Apprenticeships or Work Experience opportunities?

For Graduate, 12-month Placement and Apprentice queries, please contact the Early Careers Recruitment Team at: YourFuture@edfenergy.com. If you're interested in work experience, we offer virtual work experience, which you can access here Virtual Work Experience.

I'm a Recruitment Consultant, how can I work with EDF?

We don't use Recruitment Agencies for Early Careers recruitment. For Experienced Hire recruitment, we operate a preferred supplier list for recruitment agencies and are unable to accept unsolicited or speculative applications from suppliers not on the list. Please contact us to find out more here: AgencyQueries@edfenergy.com.

As part of our recruitment process, it is essential that you have the right to work in the UK. During your onboarding, we will ask you to complete a right to work check, which may be conducted either virtually or in person, depending on your documentation. We will inform you of the specific process when we begin onboarding.

For all our Early Careers programmes, if you meet our role requirements at application review, we'll take you through to the next part of the process. The next stage is a test that will focus on your natural skills and behaviours. This will come from a company called Arctic Shores. Keep an eye on your inbox and remember to check your spam/junk folder too as they may pop in there!

If you pass our testing, you'll move on to our video interview. This is a one-way video interview, where we will ask you a series of scenario-based questions for you to respond to.

Almost there! Following the video interview, we will get in contact with you (usually within 3 weeks) to let you know if you have been successful at moving onto the next stage or not. The next stage will be an assessment centre or face-to-face interview, depending on the programme you have applied for. You can find out more about each stage of our assessment process on the EDF Careers site. The whole process usually takes 6-8 weeks and we'll be in touch throughout.

How does the interview process work?

Interviews are designed to measure the skills and behaviours required to be successful in each of the programmes we offer. All candidates are assessed against the same set of skills and behaviours to ensure fairness and these are specific to the role that's been applied to.

Our face-to-face interviews are carried out by Hiring Managers, Recruiters, and HR colleagues from across the business and these can be done virtually or in person.

These are done as a standalone interview for our Industrial Placement programmes, but for Graduate and Apprentice programmes, they form part of the assessment centre day.

What happens at an assessment centre?

If you're invited to an assessment centre, the recruitment team will let you know what to expect. Our assessment days will involve several different exercises, giving you the opportunity to demonstrate all the different skills and behaviours that are important to the programme you have applied for.

Our assessment centres are usually done virtually, but you will be advised of this when you receive your invitation. We will also send you more information about what to expect on the day when we invite you to the assessment centre.

What to wear for my interview?

At EDF, most people wear smart casual attire. However, interviewees usually dress in business-wear. A good example of this is a clean and ironed shirt with smart trousers/skirt or suit and smart shoes. This is just as important for a video interview as it is when meeting us face-to-face.

What is the dress code?

For site and remote technical roles you'll be provided with a uniform and necessary PPE. Otherwise, our employees are expected to dress appropriately for the environment in which they work.

When will I hear the outcome?

We know you'll be keen to hear the outcome of your interview or assessment centre, so we will always aim to update you within 7 days of an assessment centre or within 7 days of our final interview taking place.

How do I tell you about any adjustments required in respect of a disability?

We're proud to be a Disability Confident employer. If you encounter any accessibility challenges during your online application, or you require any adjustments or support during the selection process, please let us know by contacting: yourfuture@edfenergy.com.

We operate a guaranteed interview scheme for candidates with disabilities, which means that if you meet the minimum criteria for the opportunity and you share your disability with us, you will automatically progress to the video interview stage of our selection process.

I have just finished School / College and don't have any work experience - can I still apply to EDF?

Yes, we don't require you to have any previous work experience for our Early Careers programmes. You can find out more about all of the programmes we offer on our early careers page.

Who do I contact for queries about Graduate Programmes, Industrial Placements, Apprenticeships or Work Experience opportunities?

Please contact our Early Careers Recruitment Team here: YourFuture@edfenergy.com

We're aware that a number of employment scams have targeted EDF recently and we take this very seriously. If you receive something that looks suspicious please don't respond or click on any links or attachments. You can report any suspicious communications to us by emailing fraud@edfenergy.com.

To help you remain vigilant, please note the following:

Our Recruitment Team will only use an official EDF email address to contact you.

EDF will never request financial information or payments during the recruitment process.

You can apply for all EDF job opportunities on our company website.

You should never disclose any personal information (national insurance number, date of birth, bank account details, address) or make payments to an unknown party.
