The programmes, and how they differ
| Programme | Salary | Degree | Closes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Graduate, audit, tax and consultingThe qualification depends on the service line and, in consulting, on which advert you pick. | Not published | "A predicted/obtained honours degree", plus the UCAS points above | See the live roles |
| Placement, one yearFor undergraduates on a sandwich degree. Consulting placements join Finance Function Support or Risk and Governance. | Not published | "Enrolled on a sandwich degree programme with a year-long industrial placement" | None stated on the adverts we read |
| School and college leaver apprenticeshipA level 4 qualification first, then the option of level 7. Tax leavers study ATT for two years, then ACA or CTA. | Not published | 112 UCAS points. "RSM does not accept General Studies, AS levels or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)" | None stated on the adverts we read |
| Work experiencePaid, while still in education. Three stages rather than six. | Not published | Not published separately | None stated |
How RSM UK recruits
RSM publishes a different stage list for each route. Graduates, placements and school leavers go through six: online application, online assessment, a service line job simulation, a virtual assessment centre, a digital assessment for digital programmes only, then a final interview. Internships stop at four and work experience at three. Two of those stages are timed: "Once invited, you'll have seven days to complete it".
Deadlines are not uniform, and this is the thing to know about applying here. The Audit Graduate advert in Edinburgh and the Audit School Leaver advert in Nottingham carry no closing date at all.
How the process usually runs
Stages as RSM UK describes them. Timings vary by programme, so treat this as a guide rather than a commitment.
01Online applicationOne form, for the route and office you want.
02Online assessmentSeven days to complete it once you are invited.
03Job simulationSpecific to the service line you applied to. Seven days again.
04Virtual assessment centreWhere internships stop.
05Digital assessmentDigital programmes only. Not part of the audit or tax route.
06Final interviewThe last stage for graduates, placements and school leavers.
Worth knowing
- The same job in the same city can be two adverts. Consulting Graduate in Glasgow exists twice, once for the CIMA route and once for ACA, with identical requirements. Apply to the wrong one and you are studying for a qualification you did not choose.
- A blank closing date does not mean there is no deadline. RSM prints a closing date on some adverts and not others, and the ones that do print it also reserve the right to close early when applications pile up.
- The seven day windows are the thing people lose places to. Once you are invited to the online assessment or the job simulation, the clock starts whether you have read the email or not.
- General Studies, AS levels and the EPQ do not count toward the 112 UCAS points on the school leaver adverts we read, which matters if you were relying on one of them to get over the line.
Questions people ask about RSM UK
What are the entry requirements for RSM UK?
112 UCAS points across three A levels, or 104 across four Scottish Highers or Advanced Highers, or an Irish Leaving Certificate at higher level. Graduate roles add an obtained or predicted honours degree. The wording is identical on every advert we read.
Does RSM UK sponsor visas?
They never use the word. Every advert asks for an existing, permanent right to live and work in the UK for the role, which is the answer for most applicants.
What does an RSM graduate earn?
RSM does not publish a figure on its early careers pages or on any of the seven adverts we read on 16 September 2026, so we do not print one. Numbers you see elsewhere are estimates from salary sites, not RSM's own.
How many stages are in the RSM application process?
Six for graduates, placements and school leavers: application, online assessment, job simulation, virtual assessment centre, a digital assessment for digital roles only, then a final interview. Internships are four stages and work experience is three.
Which qualification do you study at RSM?
It depends on the service line. Audit and most consulting routes lead to the ACA, or ICAS in Scotland and CAI in Northern Ireland. One consulting route studies CIMA instead. Tax school leavers do ATT for two years, then ACA or CTA.
Can I do a placement year at RSM?
Yes, if you are on a sandwich degree or a degree that allows a placement year. Consulting placements join one of two teams, Finance Function Support or Risk and Governance.
