- Application process
- Wahoo! You’ve decided an apprenticeship at United Utilities is the one for you. But how do you go about applying?
Below you can see examples of the different stages you may be asked to participate in.
- Stage 1: Online application
- Once you've decided which role to apply for, complete the application form
- Stage 2: Online tests
Once we've reviewed your application form, you will be asked to complete an online skills assessment, through our recruitment partner, Spotted Zebra.
Stage 3: Interview
You will be invited to attend an interview either in person or over MS Teams. You may be asked to prepare a presentation and to present on the day. This is for us to get to know you better and the type of skills you can bring to us.
Stage 4: Assessment day
For roles that include an assessment centre, this provides an opportunity for you to demonstrate your skills and experience and learn more about the programme and United Utilities.
Stage 5: Our offer to you
Congratulations on receiving an offer! Before everything is confirmed, we'll carry out a few final checks, including references, proof of your right to work in the UK, evidence of your qualifications and, where required, a medical assessment to ensure you're fit for the role.
Stage 6: Keeping in touch
You will be invited to a "Keep in Touch Day" to meet with your fellow apprentices and to meet your new team.
Successful candidates will start with us in September 2027.
