If your application is successful, we'll invite you to one of our assessment days to get to know more about you.
For graduate vacancies, this will be either a virtual or in-person half day assessment centre. Placement vacancies will be just an interview with the hiring team. These are a great opportunity for you to meet your potential line managers, network with other graduates and gain a strong understanding of Kier as a business. The days consist of a combination of team and individual exercises.

Don’t forget this is also an opportunity for you to understand more about Kier as a business, and come prepared with questions to ask our assessors to understand more about the work we do and our culture. And, don’t forget to have fun! We aim to make these days as relaxed as possible and our recruiters will be on hand to answer any questions you have about your upcoming assessment days.
