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.

Degree apprenticeships are not just an alternative to going to university, they provide sixth form school-leavers with an equivalent work-based route to graduate employment. Degree apprentices earn a salary throughout their apprenticeship and all their university tuition fees are paid-for by their employer. Degree apprenticeships lead to an undergraduate degree or a professional qualification and are available in a wide range of sectors, including engineering, accounting, law, business & management, banking & finance, and technology.

This competition is open to anyone aged 16-18

First prize is £7,500 educational grant

Opportunity to take part in an in-person experience

Overview:
When we think of sustainability, we often think of our environment, our resources, and our planet. But with the launch of satellites in space on the rise, it's time to take sustainability further than ever before - from the space around us to the space above us.

Could you be part of the solution?

Viasat is a global satellite communications company operating in space, and, in this unique competition, they are looking for you to develop ideas to help space stay sustainable, safe, and equitable. Powered by Viasat, in partnership with Springpod, you'll explore what it takes to address sustainability in space, and, if successful, you could even pitch your idea to the professionals themselves.
What's Included:
Designed to be completed individually or in groups of up to three, the Viasat Beyond: Space competition invites you to complete a series of projects across three phases.

With a range of fantastic prizes on offer, from an invitation to the Viasat Sustainable Space Experience Week to an Education Grant, now's the time to take your idea to new heights.

So, what do you need to do? Learn more about each competition project by clicking on Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3.

You can also explore what else you'll learn in Phase 1 by clicking on 'Meet Viasat', 'Sustainability in Space' and 'Project Set-Up'.

Ready to get started? Apply now to enter the competition!

In Phase 1, you'll learn more about Viasat before exploring the concept of sustainability in space in more detail. You'll then access your very first project brief, complete with a Q&A from the Viasat team, giving you the chance to ask your questions to the experts themselves!

In your first project you'll respond to two questions around the competition theme of sustainability in space.

If successful, you'll move onto Phase 2.

In Phase 2, you'll create and submit a digital entry, which expands on your ideas submitted in Phase 1. You can choose to submit your work in a range of formats, such as (but not limited to) a video, audio, or presentation.

If successful, you'll move onto Phase 3.

In the final, you'll be invited to an all-expenses paid trip to London where you'll meet space technology experts and present your final project to a panel of judges. You'll be assigned two mentors to coach you through this stage of the competition and to help you craft and refine your presentation.

Viasat is a global satellite communications company operating in space - but what does this really mean? What does Viasat do? In this module you'll gain insight into Viasat as an organisation. From satellite launches and keeping the world connected to being at the forefront of space innovation, you'll understand Viasat a lot better by the end of this module.

What is sustainability in space? What is its link to sustainability on Earth? Why is it important to address this? In this module you'll get answers to these questions, learning more about sustainability in space, some of the fundamental issues to address, and potential solutions.

Having learnt about sustainability in space in Module 2, in this 'Project Set-Up' module you'll receive your brief for the first project in the competition, complete with a Q&A from the Viasat team.

We’ve introduced a new way to find and apply for an apprenticeship in England.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
RH Commercial Vehicles have delivered the first Renault E-Tech 18 tonne curtain sided truck to Mitchells of Mansfield.

Over the past year, the company has been taking steps toward reducing and offsetting its carbon emissions. New goals have been set to achieve this by 2023, they aim to offset 25% of their carbon, 50% by 2024 and 100% of their carbon by 2026. The addition of the Renault Trucks E-Tech D Wide will significantly help these aims.

Richard Montgomery, Managing Director, commented, "Progression and positive change is a cornerstone of the business. We are doing just that by investing in the latest equipment like the Renault Trucks E-Tech vehicle.

"Our decisions on technology and equipment are based on the reduction of our environmental impact. We want to set the benchmark for the palletised market, by dipping our toes in electromobility, we can prove we are a sustainable business built on trust, sincerity, and responsibility."

The Renault Trucks E-Tech D Wide is the ideal vehicle for urban deliveries and its zero tailpipe emissions qualify it to operate in cities that are reducing their CO2 emissions and improving air quality. Their low noise output also makes them perfect for these areas.

It is fitted with four battery packs which provide 66kW of energy each and the truck is equipped with an onboard AC charger and is compatible with DC fast charging. This allows fast charging of the vehicle to maximise its daily operational range.

The vehicle set out on its maiden voyage on Monday 27th Feb 2023.

About Specsavers apprenticeships

Apprenticeship FAQs: for parents, teachers and guardians

At Specsavers, we're proud of our apprenticeship programme, kickstarting the careers of talented people across the country, and we welcome apprentices of all ages. They're a great choice for young people at the start of their career looking to earn and learn in a role that makes a difference, as well as those looking for a career change. If you know someone who'd excel in helping our customers both in store, or in their homes, read on and encourage them to apply.

Specsavers apprenticeships

What are the different types of apprenticeships available?

We offer four diverse positions, three of which are delivered by our internal teams and one is delivered by our partnered universities. Click through to each page to read more details about each role.

Day in the life of a Specsavers apprentice

What's on offer, and what are the career opportunities?

Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship, each apprentice will have a nationally-recognised qualification (see each apprenticeship opportunity for more details). The completion of this apprenticeship will also show their commitment to their learning and although now qualified in a specific role, it also opens the door to many more opportunities within Specsavers.

The training doesn't stop there. Developing our people is something that happens ongoing. Check out our routes into audiology and optometry and you'll see that an apprenticeship could be the first step toward working as a dispensing optician or a hearing aid dispenser. If leadership interests them, there is an opportunity to go down the management and in-store trainer route, or even becoming a partner , where they can share ownership of a local Specsavers business. So whatever the path, they will be supported to get there.

What is the Government Economic Service Degree Apprenticeship Programme (GESDAP)?

The GESDAP is an opportunity to work in a central government department or agency on some of the most important social, environmental and economic issues our country faces - while studying for a degree in economics with the University of Kent.

Shape a career that fits you! This programme allows you to figure out which area of Economics you love! Economics is a broad subject that can be applied across so many sectors. Your degree and practical experience will help you understand all of the opportunities that are open to economists.

It's also an opportunity to work in an inclusive and social environment. We want everyone in the Government Economic Service ( GES) to feel comfortable to come to work as themselves. We have a culture that supports all, no matter their background or ambitions. You will have the opportunity to be part of a fun community, with many social events and plenty of chances to make friends with both students and other colleagues.

Why Economics?

It teaches you the skills to make well informed decisions and solve problems

It is always relevant as it looks at the world around us

Extremely varied and leads to a wide range of careers, such as journalism, analysis and policy advisory

It is one of the highest paid professions

What do your current Apprentice Economists have to say on the GESDAP?
Study with the University of Kent

University of Kent was selected to deliver the programme because of the strength of their economics courses and the support they offer to apprentices throughout the programme. This will be delivered via blended learning, a mixture of distance and face to face learning, so there is no need to travel to the University regularly. On successful completion, you will gain an economics degree and four years' experience of working in the Civil Service setting you up to build a brilliant career as an economist.

Entry Requirements

Minimum of five GCSE (including Maths at grade B (6) or above and English Language at C (4) or above) or equivalent

Minimum of 96 UCAS points under the 2017 tariff point system (e.g. CCC at A Level or equivalent qualifications, not including General Studies)

We don't expect you to have studied economics previously but we are keen to know what interests you now

You can check how many UCAS points you have by using the UCAS Tariff Calculator at https://www.ucas.com/ucas/tariff-calculator

Individuals will also need to demonstrate that they have resided in the UK for at least the previous 3 years before the start of the apprenticeship, meet the relevant immigration requirements and their eligibility under the Civil Service Nationality Rules ( CSNRs). Nationality requirements are explained in more detail on the Civil Service nationality rules webpage.

Where will you work?

A range of central government departments and agencies will provide apprenticeship placements through the programme - which will offer students a starting salary of about £21k in London and a minimum of £18k nationally. The GESDAP has vacancies in London and nationwide.
