[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 36504, member: 2672"] There is no set answer here unfortunately. Non rolling generally means they won’t review applications until they close. However, some firms are still rejecting people before then, particularly if people are not eligible for the programme or if they haven’t passed psychometric tests. However some firms will say that non rolling is actually them reviewing as they go but that they don’t invite anyone through to interview until everyone has been reviewed. This typically requires a second sifting system where application may be reviewed again or if they have been scored, a certain score of application gets through to interview (which can only be determined once every application is reviewed). Graduate recruitment dedicate the same amount of time to applications no matter when you apply. They just have to spend more of their time screening later in the season. My advice is always to try and aim to apply in the first two thirds of an application window for any firm that says they are rolling recruitment. You can still apply in the final third if you want to (and I’d still encourage people to apply during that time as the only way you can secure a job is if you apply) - but applying in the first two thirds of a window generally means you are at least two thirds ahead of all applications (where most people apply close to the deadline).
