In order to get one of the 200 coveted graduate places, there is a rigorous application process that you have to go through in order to get that place. The first thing to do is to fill out the online application form, where you will get a chance to upload your CV. There are also a few competency questions that are related to the applied job. The goal of these questions is to filter out those who don't have the drive and ambition to succeed. Moreover, they are used to assess your suitability to the applied role. Listed in the job description you will find the key competencies relating to your job. It is recommended that you incorporate these into your answers as well as throughout the entire application process. As well as this, when answering these questions, use the STAR method as this brings your answers to life, thus giving you a helpful advantage over those who don’t.

As well as this section of the application form, you will have to complete an SJT (Situational Judgement Test). These tests are used to assess an individual’s ability to decide on effective ways of handling real-life situations, thus evaluating behavioural and managerial skills.

After a successful application, you will be invited to take the Lloyds TSB numerical, verbal and inductive reasoning tests. These tests are provided by SHL, a very well-known testing company.

These tests are very popular and are used across many different application processes. They assess an individual's ability to identify trends across a wide range of data and combine statistics from different sources to establish new information patterns.

The verbal reasoning test is used to measure different aspects of critical thinking and reasoning. You will be given a paragraph of information and a few different possible answers.

These tests assess your ability to draw inferences and understand the relationship between different concepts and ideas. They normally use shapes and diagrams to assess the candidate.

Each of these tests is timed and you will have between 20 and 30 minutes to complete them. Without proper practice, you will not be able to show your full abilities as they are unique in nature. Let the PrepPack™ help you along the way with the realistic test portal.

Those SHL-style PrepPacks™ were designed in order to give you an advantage over the other Lloyds TSB candidates. Dozens of detailed SHL-style tests, as well as study guides and score reports, are offered. Begin practising today and outperform the competition tomorrow!

If you have completed the online tests to their satisfaction, you will be invited to have a Lloyds TSB telephone interview. This is a long interview; it can be as much as an hour in length and is mainly competency based. Some questions that you may be asked are:

Why Lloyds?
What does TSB stand for?
Why do you want this role in particular?
What are the challenges facing Lloyds?
How have you led a team before?
Tell me about a time when you had to make a difficult decision?

Remember to answer these questions in the STAR format mentioned earlier, as well as keeping in mind all of the main competencies that are involved in the job. It is advisable to prepare notes for this interview and this is in fact where you can have a much easier time of it than in a face to face interview.

If you do well enough in this interview, you will be invited to take part in the Lloyds TSB Banking Group Assessment Centre.

Bundles: Summer Internship | Spring Week | Big 4

The Lloyds Summer Internship is a highly competitive, 8-week paid programme offering university students in their penultimate or final year hands-on experience across key business areas, including finance, technology, risk, HR, and commercial banking. With a pro-rata salary of £25,000 and locations across the UK, the internship combines real-world projects, structured training, and networking opportunities.

Interns are supported with induction sessions, technical learning, a personal buddy, and exposure to group challenges and hackathons.

Eligibility requires applicants to be on track for a 2:2 degree or above and available to work full-time over the summer. The application process is multi-staged: starting with an online application, followed by Cappfinity assessments (covering situational judgement, cognitive abilities, and personality), a video interview, and an assessment centre involving group tasks and interviews.

Strong performers may receive offers for Lloyds' graduate scheme — a two-year full-time programme featuring rotational placements, professional qualifications, and leadership development.

Due to the programme's prestige and limited spots, applicants are advised to apply early and prepare thoroughly.

This section of assessment is designed to be closely related to what you will do on the job in the average working day. To this end, all the different activities that you will undertake throughout the day will be related to your chosen field. The activities are:

In this section of the assessment, you will be given a series of documents. For example, you may be given different pieces of data, reports and statistics relating to a subject matter such as different bank products and a marketing campaign for it. You will have 50 minutes to read through this material and analyse it. After this, you will be given a big flip-chart to prepare a 10-minute presentation to be given in front of two assessors. After this presentation, you will need to answer their questions for another 10 minutes. Be sure of yourself and stand your ground on the decision you've made.
