How Oxford Quantum Circuits recruits

OQC's own careers page describes a two-part screening: a skills-only CV review, followed by an interview panel. It states plainly that CVs are assessed on skills alone before any interview.

OQC's own applicant system shows the Associate Quantum Engineer role was published on 23 July 2026 and the Associate Scientific Software Engineer role on 24 July 2026. Our pipeline first confirmed this intake on 22 August 2026.

How the process usually runs

Stages as Oxford Quantum Circuits describes them. Timings vary by programme, so treat this as a guide rather than a commitment.

01CV review"When your CV is being assessed by our team we only ever consider one thing: your skills."
02Interview panel"Once you've been shortlisted, you will meet our interview panel who will want to understand the full picture of who you are at work to assess suitability."
