If you're in your penultimate year of university, this eight-week scheme will show you what we do, how we do it, and how you could be part of it. You’ll get a real taste of life at Accenture, have the opportunity to learn new skills and get an insight into the work you could be doing as a graduate. What’s more, if you do well, we may offer you a permanent role after you graduate.
The scheme starts in July, beginning with a week-long induction that will give you a solid grounding in business and technology consultancy, as well as valuable commercial skills.
After that first week, you’ll start on a project. It could be based anywhere in the UK within one of our consulting teams. And you won’t just be shadowing others – you’ll be getting in the mix right from the start. Your responsibilities might include testing software, conducting research, writing reports or analysing data. We’ll make sure you have all the support you need with a ‘buddy’ who will be on-hand throughout to offer guidance. And we’ll pay you a competitive pro rata salary too. If you do well, you might receive an offer to join us after you graduate.
You’ll currently be in the penultimate year of study for your degree and be expecting to receive a minimum 2:1 bachelor’s degree. A strong communicator with great organisational skills and a real passion for IT, you’ll want to know more about how technology can make a real difference to business.
Applications are now closed.
You’ll need to be fully prepared to travel as client projects could take you anywhere in the country – or even the world – though you will be aligned to a base at one of our main office locations in either Edinburgh, London, Manchester or Newcastle.
We understand that what you earn and the benefits you receive have an enormous impact on your quality of life. Because we’re always competing to attract and retain the very best people, we continuously review our rewards strategy to make sure it’s the best it can be. It includes:
Competitive pro rata salary
A ‘buddy’ to support you throughout your time with us
Opportunity to gain a permanent role after you graduate

APPLICATION PROFILE AND PSYCHOMETRIC QUESTIONNAIRE |
The first part of the process is to fill out an application profile which includes a psychometric questionnaire. Along with attaching your most up to date CV, we will ask you to provide some details of your background, experience, skills and education. Although this stage can be completed in under 10 minutes, you can exit and revisit the page as many times as you like before submitting. If your profile meets our role requirements and is identified as a good fit for the company and our culture, we will progress you through to the next stage.

IMMERSIVE ASSESSMENTS |
You will then be asked to complete a series of short online assessments. This stage gives you the opportunity to prove your cognitive and functional ability, tech acuity and business acumen. From start to finish the assessments should take no longer than 1 hour to complete. Since they are untimed, you are welcome to start and stop the assessments as you wish and complete them at your leisure. If you excel across all areas, we will then progress you to the third and final stage.

ASSESSMENT CENTRE |
At this stage you are required to attend a 3-hour Assessment Centre in our London office. The Assessment Centres will take you through a series of exercises that will give you insight into life at Accenture while allowing you to showcase your potential for the role. Some exercises such as the Virtual Reality segment and 1:1 interview will require you to participate on your own and others such as the business challenge will require you to work together with other candidates. You will be informed of the outcome within 10-15 business days.
