Hi,
It will depend on what year you are at university.
1) If you are in your penultimate year: you can apply for our Industrial Placements:
https://www.lloydsbankinggrouptalent.com/our-opportunities/undergraduates/
2) If you are in your penultimate or final year of study, then please have a look at our summer internships: https://www.lloydsbankinggrouptalent.com/our-opportunities/undergraduates/summer-internships/
3) If you are in your final year or have graduated then the graduate scheme will be your best option:

Lastly, we use a strengths-based assessment process so there is no requirement for previous industry experience.
Hope that helps :)

In addition to Matthew's answer, if there is a specific area of the Group you are interested in joining I would also recommend doing some online learnings which are related to this. LinkedIn often offers free learning courses, that don't take a long time and are something you could then discuss during any interviews or assessment centres you attend.

Hi, thanks for your question. Lloyds does not focus on banking/finance experience but rather looks at all of a candidates previous experiences and assesses their strengths! I did a degree in International Relations and History and had no banking/finance work experience for reference.
