What are the Best and Worst things about your job?

Best

The best part of the VMO2 Finance Graduate Scheme is the level of responsibility and exposure you get early on in your career. Even as a graduate, you are trusted with real work that impacts the business, whether that is supporting month-end processes, analysing costs, building reports, or presenting insights to stakeholders.

Worst

The most challenging part can be balancing full-time work with professional exams and study commitments. There can be busy periods, especially around month-end or reporting deadlines, where managing workload alongside CIMA revision requires strong organisation and time management.

What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

Make sure your application focuses on commercial awareness and examples of leadership, teamwork and problem solving, rather than just finance knowledge. VMO2 care a lot about your potential, personality and ability to learn. You do not need a finance degree, so demonstrating curiosity, adaptability and a willingness to challenge yourself is important.

Do you have any interview tips?

The interview process was more conversational than technical. Be prepared to talk confidently about your experiences, motivations and examples of when you worked in teams, solved problems or handled challenges. They are interested in how you think and how you communicate.
