Our application process is designed to help you shine. We want everyone to feel they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity, or culture. We’re proud of our inclusive work environment where everyone can be themselves and fully reach their potential.
Our schemes may close early if we receive a high number of applications, so it’s best to apply as soon as you can. Check out the tips below to help you.
Everyone has a unique combination of strengths and areas for development, so we want to see the ‘real you’ at every stage of your application. We’re not expecting perfection. Just be yourself.
Once you’ve found the ideal opportunity on our Gradcracker Hub, click the apply button. You will then be asked to register and provide us with some details about yourself. We don’t require your CV and we don’t rely solely on your past successes. During all stages we are looking for you to share our values and demonstrate your potential.

Our one-stage assessment will provide you with insight into Lloyds Banking Group and an understanding of how we support our customers and the wider community. It gives you a look at the types of projects you could work on if you join us and assesses how you’d approach different challenges in real-life work situations.
During this assessment you will be assessed against the following:
You will be presented with a range of assessment material which includes audio content, additional resources (articles, mock emails) and different question types.
The assessment can be completed in different stages and we recommend that you take a break between each of the assessments.
The final stage of the application process is a virtual assessment day.
The virtual assessment day will be a full day of face-to-face assessment via Microsoft Teams. Tasks will include short problem-solving style activities, a one-to-one interview as well as group-based activities.
But the day isn’t just about us assessing you – you’ll have the opportunity to learn more about Lloyds Banking Group, our values and our culture too. You’ll get to meet (virtually!) colleagues at Lloyds Banking Group, and some of our current graduates who can tell you about their own journey and answer your questions.
If you’re successful at the assessment day, we’ll make you an offer to join us.
We’re interested in how you feel about our industry and what draws you to it. Since our purpose is to Help Britain Prosper, we'd love to hear how you live our values.
Whether you’ve volunteered before or you want to get involved in our charity work, think about how you can help us achieve our purpose while pursuing your own goals.
Strengths-based interviews differ from traditional assessments, focusing on what comes naturally to you. Be ready to demonstrate how you approach tasks, both individually and in a group, during our assessment days.
