Graduate Programme

• Applications for the Graduate Scheme in 2012 are now CLOSED.  Applications for the Graduate Scheme in 2013 will open in October 2012.
• To apply you will need to submit an online application, which involves you uploading your CV and covering letter along with two short essay answer questions.
• Please note we only accept online applications and do not accept any speculative applications.

If your online application is successful you will be invited to an assessment day between 9th and 20th January 2012.

Yes, but once you've been offered a graduate traineeship you'll need to undertake a RICS-accredited conversion course. In some exceptional cases, we offer funding to help support you through your studies.

You can apply and if selected we would review your previous APC related experience and training to be able to develop an understanding of your future training needs.

Certainly. We review all applications and often encourage students to apply again if they have taken steps to improve their application. If you have been turned down for a summer placement, this has no bearing on your application for a graduate traineeship.

The Graduate Scheme recruitment process has three stages:

First stage: Application

• To apply you will need to submit an online application, which involves you uploading your CV and covering letter along with two short essay answer questions.
• Applications for the Graduate Scheme in 2012 are now CLOSED.  Applications for the Graduate Scheme in 2013 will open in October 2012.
• Please note we only accept online applications and do not accept any speculative applications.
• We will let all applicants know whether or not they have been successful in reaching the next stage by the end of December 2012.

Second stage: Assessment Day

• If your online application is successful you will be invited to attend an assessment day in January 2013.
• Find out more about our assessment centre  here.
• We will let all applicants know whether or not they have been successful in reaching the next stage by the end of January 2013.

Third stage: Interview

• If you were successful at the assessment day you will be invited to attend an interview in late January or early February 2013.
• We make job offers or offers to join us for work experience by the end of February 2013.

All communication for our recruitment is conducted via email, therefore please apply with an account you will have continued use over university holiday.

If your online application is successful you will be invited to an assessment day between 9th and 20th January 2012.

If you are successful at the assessment day you will then be invited for a final round formal interview which will take place in January or February 2012. The interviews often take place in London, but on occasion some of them can take place in one of our regional offices.

The aim of the assessment day is to give candidates the chance to find out about what it would be like to work at Savills and for Savills to find out more about each candidate.

The day will involve candidates undertaking a presentation task, written test, numerical test and a group exercise. There will be no formal interview at this stage of the recruitment process.

In addition, there will be informative presentations and a chance to meet people from the business - from graduates to directors.

The interview will involve a panel of 2 or 3 assessors asking a range of questions regarding your experience, your interest in the industry and so forth. Your questions will be tailored to your performance at the assessment day so no two candidates will have the same interview.

We will be in touch by email and phone as soon as we are certain that you're right for Savills. We aim to let everyone know if they have been successful or not by the end of January.

Everyone attending an assessment day or interview has the opportunity to request feedback. However, the large volumes of applications we receive mean it isn't possible for us to provide feedback to people who are not invited to an assessment day or interview.

Our graduate salary is reviewed every year to ensure our package is at a competitive market rate.

We offer positions throughout our UK offices. On the application form you will be able to express your location choice and we will try to accommodate this where possible.

The majority of graduates begin in September, but on some occasions the start could be earlier or later. This would be discussed if a job offer was made.

The 2011 pass rate was 93%, which is over 20% higher than the national average.

Savills is a very social company to work for. Along with my social events, there are a range of sporting teams you can join including hockey, football and netball. Also, each year the graduates choose a charity to support. In 2010 the graduates supported 'I Can' by organising a Young Professionals Party at a London Club and a cricket match to raise funds. In addition, graduates were given a day out of their work schedule to visit the 'I Can' school and aid with the building of an additional classroom.

Graduates gain experience in up to six departments giving maximum flexibility of exposure and choice of department upon qualification, coupled with great networking across the business.
