Applying as an international student

Graduate roles are few compared with the full listing, so internships, placements and apprenticeships matter. There are 36 graduate, internship and apprenticeship roles in the facts. A role asking for a little experience can still suit a strong graduate if you can show relevant projects, customer work, analysis, society leadership, part time employment or transferable organisational skills.

An employer holding a sponsor licence does not mean that every vacancy offers sponsorship. Read the advert and ask the employer whether the specific role can support your circumstances before relying on it. Check the Graduate visa route and Skilled Worker rules on GOV.UK, including the current eligibility requirements, and prepare evidence of your right to work when applying.

  • Search graduate, internship, placement, apprenticeship and trainee opportunities alongside permanent roles.
  • Match your evidence to the advert, especially analysis, communication, organisation and stakeholder work.
  • Check the advert and employer for the specific role's sponsorship position.
  • Use GOV.UK for current Graduate visa and Skilled Worker rules.

How to read this page

A sponsor licence means the employer is allowed to sponsor visas. It does not mean every role it advertises will be sponsored. Check the advert, and the salary rules for the Skilled Worker visa on GOV.UK, before you apply.
