How to make the right impression
What sort of people are we looking for?
We employ people who demonstrate drive, enthusiasm and discipline, coupled with high levels of integrity and professionalism. During the selection process we’ll be looking for you to show you have the right skills, as well as the behaviours that demonstrate that you’d thrive in our achievement culture. All relevant examples from your work or voluntary experience, involvement in clubs and societies and hobbies and your academic achievements will really help to strengthen your application.
Find out as much as you can
Each of our vacancies includes a description of the role and information about the business area and department you would join. A full job specification is also provided. This allows you to assess your skills against those required. It’s important that you read this and research our website before applying.
Make sure we can contact you
When you make your application, please ensure your contact details are correct. If we can’t contact you, it will be impossible for us to take your application further.
First impressions count
Your CV and covering letter is your first opportunity to sell yourself to the Company. Think carefully about what you want to convey. Where possible, ensure that areas of relevance are highlighted. It almost goes without saying, but don’t forget to spell check your application – mistakes suggest a lack of care and won’t make a good impression.

Preparing for interview

- show your interest in Brit Insurance
- describe your skills and how they relate to the role
- show that your experience and attitude fits with our achievement culture.
