On starting with us you’ll be given an in-depth understanding of the whole Balfour Beatty business, examples of best practice learned through experience and a network of contacts within the company.

Graduate Recruitment

As a candidate you’ll attend a graduate recruitment day. You’ll undergo formal psychometric testing using accredited systems. You’ll also complete an accredited personality profile - this does not form a basis of selection, but is used as a reference document for the interviews that take place later in the day.

Interviews are then carried out by a number of the Balfour Beatty WorkPlace team and HR professionals. These interviews tend to be an informal two-way information sharing experience.

Decisions are based on the strength of candidate’s qualifications, aspirations, test results and interview feedback. We aim to notify candidates of our decision within two weeks.
