IBM opened at 9am today for applications to their ‘Technology’ roles. Last year, some of their roles opened and closed on the same day as they were inundated with applications and they expect a similar level of experience this year. The initial application is very short and straightforward and should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete.

If you miss the deadline, you can still register your interest on their website to stay informed of all future opening dates. In order to deliver the best candidate experience, IBM are aiming for successful applicants to receive an offer within 4 weeks of submitting their application. To achieve this their placement roles will be opening periodically over the academic year, giving students up to 1 week to submit their initial application.
