Palpable Score

75.1
/ 100
Aon offers multiple real entry routes, including paid internships, graduate Launch pathways, and apprenticeships that are designed for people starting out. Aon also publishes a relatively clear early-career selection journey in public-facing guidance, but candidate experiences suggest timing and communication can still vary by role and location. The score is held back mainly by limited public outcomes data, such as conversion rates from internships to full-time roles and early-career retention or promotion metrics.
