Our real estate clients face uniquely challenging<br />
times. Do you have the potential to help them add<br />
value and inspire confidence for fearful consumers<br />

<strong>Xchanging</strong> <strong>Graduate</strong> Scheme<br />
We take graduates into our business every year, with start<br />
dates in September. Applications are welcome from anyone<br />
who is an undergraduate in their final year, completing a<br />
Masters, PHd or MBA. You can only apply once - so please<br />
make the most of your opportunity.<br />
Our Three Stage Process<br />
We choose successful candidates for the <strong>Xchanging</strong><br />
<strong>Graduate</strong> Scheme using a three stage process:<br />
Stage 1: Application<br />
You must apply through the website, using the<br />
link provided on the graduate home page. The<br />
application features some initial questions and<br />
a requirement to list your qualifications. We will<br />
also screen your application for spelling and<br />
grammatical accuracy.<br />
Stage 2: Selection<br />
Once stage 1 screening is finished, we select<br />
candidates for assessment using SHL tests. These<br />
tests are sent to you as web links to be carried out<br />
online. They measure your verbal and numerical<br />
reasoning ability. They are assessed against the<br />
graduate norm we expect.<br />
Stage 3: Assessment<br />
Based on the results of the SHL tests, we create<br />
a shortlist of candidates to attend one of our<br />
assessment centres. The format is a mixture of<br />
group work, individual interviews and presentations.<br />
From these assessment centres, we make offers to<br />
the strongest candidates.<br />
‘With <strong>Xchanging</strong> being such a young<br />
business, the youthful culture of<br />
entrepreneurialism runs deep and means<br />
pushing yourself to have new experiences.<br />
This for me has been the most exciting<br />
part of the culture of <strong>Xchanging</strong>.’<br />
