📩 How to apply?

To level the playing field, CVs aren’t important, instead, to apply for this role, we want you to create a short video and submit a written answer.

🤳🏿 Video brief:

Using a smart phone, create a three-minute video of yourself telling us why you want this internship by answering the below questions: (be as creative as you like!)

  • How would your peers describe you?
  • Tell us about a sporting event that has caught your eye recently – and tell us what you thought of it (whether it was good / bad – and why)
  • This role involves working on events planning and engaging with project managers. Talk us through how you would juggle two contrasting requests at once?
  • You’re the captain of a football / rugby / any sport (!) team and you’re currently playing a match. It’s halftime and your team is losing. You’re in the dressing room leading the team talk – what do you say to your team to motivate them for the second half?
  • Share a link of this video via a platform like WeTransfer in the application questionnaire (don't include an expiration date to the video).

​💻 Written answer brief:
