Application tips
Research the live EY UK Apprenticeship Programmes vacancy before applying. Compare the duties, qualification, location and eligibility rules rather than relying on an older employer profile, because EY can change routes between recruitment years.
Apply early once the appropriate role opens. Current research indicates: 2026 applications were closed when researched; programmes generally reopen later in the year. Large employers and professional-services firms often close individual locations when they have enough candidates.
Prepare specifically for the published selection process: Application form, online assessments, EY Experience Day and final interview. Use any official practice material and request reasonable adjustments before beginning timed assessments.
Build concise STAR examples that demonstrate building a better working world, teamwork, integrity, inclusion, curiosity and using technology to solve complex business challenges. Keep the emphasis on what you personally did, the evidence of impact and what you learned.
Tailor technical and commercial preparation to the pathway. For Assurance, understand the work, clients or systems involved; for Tax, identify the relevant skills and explain why this employer is a better fit than a generic apprenticeship.
Do not guess missing information. The current entry position is: Programme-specific academic and eligibility criteria apply. Re-check the live vacancy for salary, grades, right-to-work rules, start date and apprenticeship standard immediately before publication or submission.
Culture
EY presents a culture centred on building a better working world, teamwork, integrity, inclusion, curiosity and using technology to solve complex business challenges. Applicants should translate these themes into evidence rather than repeating value words: show the decision made, the stakeholder or customer affected, the standard maintained and the measurable outcome.
