How to apply for these roles

  • Use a clear UK CV with your contact details, right-to-work position where relevant, education, recent experience and skills matched to the advert. Keep the layout easy to scan and put the most relevant evidence near the top.
  • Write a cover letter that answers the advert directly. Use specific examples to show how your skills match the duties, rather than repeating general statements about your interest.
  • Read the advert’s own wording about sponsorship carefully. An employer’s sponsor licence does not by itself show that a particular role is sponsored, so check the advert and ask the employer if the position’s immigration arrangements are unclear.
  • Check the closing date and submit before it, allowing time to complete the application form and upload documents. Keep a note of the roles you apply for so you can prepare consistently for later stages.
  • For graduate schemes, prepare for online tests as well as interviews. Practise timed numerical, verbal, situational or technical exercises where relevant, and read the programme description so your answers reflect its rotations and training.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I check the Skilled Worker salary rules?

Check the current Skilled Worker salary rules and eligibility guidance on GOV.UK. Requirements can depend on the role and the applicant, so use the official guidance rather than relying on a general figure.

Are there roles suitable for graduates or people with limited experience?

Yes. Today’s list includes 17 graduate roles, internships, a trainee dispensing position and programmes combining training with practical work. The descriptions show opportunities across technology, analytics, software engineering, sales, pharmacy operations and security.

How to read this list

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.
