FAQs

It depends on the programme you're interested in. Our entry requirements will be clearly listed on our job adverts. All our apprenticeships require a minimum qualification in the following subjects and you will need to be able to evidence these: 

• (Scotland) National 5 (or equivalent) at grade A-C in both Maths and English (English language and/or literature)
• (England/Wales/Crown Dependencies) GCSE (or equivalent) at grade 4-9 in both Maths and English (Language and/or Literature). 

Yes. You might need to provide evidence comparing your qualifications to UK standards (like a UK ENIC Statement of Comparability). If needed, Lloyds Banking Group will let you know. 

Absolutely! Although if you get an offer that requires specific qualifications, you'll need to achieve your predicted grades prior to your Apprenticeship vacancy start date. Your offer will only become unconditional once you can evidence these. 

Yes. Apprenticeships are advertised internally and externally. Please apply via Workday. 

It depends. If your degree is in a totally unrelated subject and doesn't overlap with your apprenticeship learning modules, you should be good to go. But if your degree is in a similar subject, or has modules that do overlap, Lloyds Banking Group will need to review your modules more closely. 

You must have the legal right to work in the UK for the full duration of the apprenticeship programme. Due to Home Office requirements regarding Skilled Workers, Lloyds Banking Group is unable to accept applications for visa sponsorship for apprenticeship roles as the proposed salary for the role does not meet the minimum threshold. 

There’s a huge range to choose from, from intermediate to degree level.

Have a think about what kind of work you'd like to do. Each apprenticeship is designed for a specific role, so ask yourself: What do I enjoy doing? What am I naturally good at? What are my skills? 

If you can't see the right role for you right now, register your interest for a particular apprenticeship or a specific location and Lloyds Banking Group will be in touch when something becomes available. 

It depends on the programme. Apprenticeships typically run from 12 months to five years. 

Yes. Apprenticeship vacancies are permanent positions from day one. 

Everyone on the apprenticeships gets a nationally recognised qualification. Some apprenticeships progress to higher level programmes. Full details are in the job adverts.

Assessment days are a chance for Lloyds Banking Group to learn more about you. They happen online or face to face, and you'll be asked to complete a few straightforward tasks and activities which might include all, or some, of the following: 

• A skills-based interview 
• A coaching conversation and problem-solving exercise 
• A group activity including a presentation 

Energy and enthusiasm for the business and the role you've applied for. Do some research about their brands, vision, and competitors. Be ready to tell them why you're interested in working for Lloyds Banking Group and why the apprenticeship you've applied for matches your skills and interests. 

Don't worry if you don't have a lot of previous work experience. Apprenticeships are designed to teach you everything you will need to know to be successful in your role. However, Lloyds Banking Group will still need to assess if you have the right attitude and enthusiasm. Be ready to show what other things you've done and any skills and experience you've gained from other activities, whether it's volunteering or playing in a sports team.

Lloyds Banking Group is committed to always being an inclusive and diverse workforce. If you have a disability, long-term health condition, or neurodiverse condition, you can apply through the Disability Confident Scheme (DCS). Eligible candidates who meet the minimum criteria can progress if they meet 90% of the standard progression benchmark for the scheme. 

The Equality Act 2010 describes people with disabilities, long-term health or neuro-diverse conditions as someone who has a physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and adverse long-term effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. 

Not at all. You'll still be entitled to reasonable adjustments throughout the assessment process. 

If you have a disability or condition that might affect your performance during the selection process, let Lloyds Banking Group know.
