Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions answered
Whatever your company’s scale or financial position, there are a number of ways we can help with turnaround advisory and cash management solutions.
How will I know if you’ve received my application?
You will receive an automated email as soon as we receive your application form.
How flexible are you about academic requirements?
We don’t generally make exceptions to our academic requirements. However, there may be some flexibility in extenuating circumstances. If this is the case, please detail them on the relevant section of the online application form.
Will I be able to highlight any extenuating circumstances in relation to my application?
If you want us to consider something that might affect your application, please make sure you highlight this in the relevant section of the online application form or email us in advance and we will be able to discuss your requirements on a case-by-case basis.
Will I be told how well I performed in the online tests?
You will be notified if you have been successful or unsuccessful in our tests. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications, we are unable to provide you with feedback until the assessment centre stage of the process. We hope you understand.
I have a disability, how can I ensure the appropriate adjustments are made during the application process?
If you need any adjustments during any part of the online application, online tests or at interview stage, please contact our Early Careers Recruitment team at earlycareers@evelyn.com. We will be very happy to discuss with you how we can make the necessary reasonable adjustments to assist you.
What are the timescales for the recruitment process?
At every stage of the process you will be given an indication of when you can expect feedback. This is usually within 2-10 working days. Between October – March there is a peak in activity so there might be a delay in our response, please bear with us. You will always be welcome to pop us an email at earlycareers@evelyn.com if you need an update.
Can I make two different applications for two different areas?
We can only accept one application to any of our programmes in a recruitment season. If you are unsuccessful, you will need to wait until the next September when we re-open applications for the following year.
Do I need to have relevant work experience?
You don’t need to have work experience that is directly relevant to the role you have applied for. However, we recommend that you detail any work experience (paid or unpaid) which you have on your application form.
Do I need to have a business or finance degree to be considered?
No, we welcome applications from candidates with any degree discipline. Whatever your degree discipline, we do expect you to have a clear understanding of the business area you are applying to and of Evelyn Partners as a company.
What are the key deadline dates?
We recruit for all of our vacancies on a rolling basis, so we strongly suggest you apply as early as possible. For roles in particularly high demand, we may close applications within a matter of days.
When do your vacancies open?
The majority of our roles will open at the beginning of September, however we may open up other roles after this time if they become available.
When do your assessment centres take place?
We run assessment centres regularly from early October until the spring of the following year. If you are selected to attend one of our assessment centres, we'll make sure you have all the information you need.
I have had a technical issue during the online application process or in one of the online tests, what can I do?
It’s important to let us know as soon as possible. Please email us with the details of your issue along with a screen shot (ideally) to earlycareers@evelyn.com. We’ll then advise on next steps.
I require visa sponsorship, can I apply?
Yes, you are welcome to apply. Sponsorship of visas is discussed on a case by case basis dependent on individual requirement. We’ll cover this with you at the latter stage of our recruitment process.
