The world is your oyster Wogunka. Many of our internships and grad roles are open to people from any disciplines so you can choose the scheme that you're most interested in :)

Hi Wogunka, there is no reason that you can't join an Internship/graduate scheme without having finance experience. Grads from my cohort come from a varied background such as english or chemistry. Lloyds are more interested in your motivations and values rather than your skills

Hi Wogunka, there are plenty of opportunities within the group within the data and AI space. As an example, I currently work in a data team who primarily use SQL to provide data to other project groups. We also provide data for data science teams to build machine learning models to answer various business questions

I wish to seek clarification on these areas: 1. Do you have opportunities for placement for Masters students, and what time can they apply?
Can Masters students apply for the Internship and what time can they apply?
I would be rounding up my Masters programme by December 2024; what is the right time for me to start making applications for graduate role?

If you are completing your masters in December 2024 you would either need to apply for a graduate scheme next autumn, which would start in September 2025 or you could always consider looking at our careers page to search for a job vacancy there too
