Application Tips

If the job application process feels daunting at the start, use these tips to help you get going:

Take your time: gather all the information you'll need, including details of your academic achievements, any employment history and contact information.

Be specific: submit a CV that's up-to-date and written for the the role you're applying for.

Don't forget the essentials: keep referring back to the job description and list the skills, work and educational experience that make you a great fit for the role. Think about your hobbies too, and what skills and experience you've gained from these.

Do some research: check out our Gradcracker Hub to understand more about what we do and how we work at Robertson. This will help you focus your application and make a great first impression.

Be positive and be prepared: tell us why you'll be a great asset to Team Robertson. Think of examples of your strengths and be prepared to talk more about these – a member of our recruitment team may call to chat through your application and learn more about you.

Pay attention to detail: before submitting your CV, check for grammar and spelling errors, and make sure everything you say is correct and gives a true reflection of your achievements and experience so far. Then check your contact details once more – just to be sure.
