We know applying for your first graduate role can be exciting, and sometimes a little daunting. At Aon, we’re committed to making our recruitment process as transparent and supportive as possible. Here’s how our selection journey works, and what you can expect at each stage:

1. Application Review

• We process applications on a rolling basis, moving candidates forward as they complete each stage.

2. Online Assessment

• We understand you want to put your best foot forward, so you’ll have 5 calendar days to complete the online assessment.
• If you need more time, just let us know as extensions are available.

3. Video Interview

• Preparation matters, so you’ll have up to 10 days (240 hours) from receiving your invitation to record and submit your video interview.
• Rest assured: Every video interview is reviewed by a real member of our recruitment team, not an AI system.
