here and you have questions, please
contact Rebecca Withers (recruitment@geraldeve.com).
Where will I be located?
The majority of our graduate positions
are based in London although opportunities
do arise in our regional offices.
You need to let us know in your application
if you’d prefer a non-London
location. You’ll be based at
your main office during most of your
training period, although you will
also be travelling around the country
to see clients and their properties.
When will I start work?
If Gerald Eve works out as the place
for you, you should plan any summer
work or holidays around joining us
at the end of September 2010.
Are any work placements available?
Different offices and departments
offer holiday work and industrial
placements from time to time. We suggest
you send us your CV and covering letter,
indicating what you’re looking
for, when, where and for how long,
and we will see what is available
and try and match you to it.
Do I have to have a property-related
degree to join as a graduate trainee?
As we need graduates to 'hit the ground
running' in our busy offices, we look
for candidates who hold a degree or
masters in a subject which is accredited
by the RICS or RTPI.
Therefore we regret that we are unable
to review applications from those
who do not hold a property-related
degree. If your ultimate aim is to
qualify as a chartered surveyor or
planner, we recommend that you take
a relevant post-graduate course, which
will enable you to qualify MRICS/MRTPI
in a shorter time period. Further
details of courses can be found on
the RICS website (www.rics.org.uk
) or RTPI website (www.rtpi.org.uk
).
How long does the application
process take?
We’ll acknowledge your application
within seven days of receiving it.
We’ll then review it in detail
and let you know after the closing
date whether you have been successful
in getting to the interview stage.
Most interviews will be held during
January/February 2010.
How can I find out more?
Please email Rebecca Withers our
HR manager, who is in
charge of the graduate programme.
Please also include a daytime telephone
number and we will respond to you
as soon as we can.
