What will the training involve?
We are passionate about training and development. You will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the operation through a number of visits to various Army sites, walk through the application process to join the Army and partake in continued learning activities designed to develop your military knowledge to ensure you are totally confident and able to hit the ground running as soon as you start to build your candidate portfolio.
What kind of hours will I be working?
Hours of work will be Monday to Friday, 9.00am – 5.30pm but there may be the requirement to work outside of these hours on occasion to meet the needs of the business.
What benefits do you offer?
All Capita employees can choose from a range of benefits and discounts to suit their lifestyle needs.
Will I spend time at the Army barracks?
Primarily, your role will be working in our recruitment offices or remotely as you travel to meet candidates, attend/host events or work with your peers at other offices. You may also sometimes visit an Army barracks but it all depends on the role you apply for.
Will you sponsor visas?
You must be eligible to work in the UK to apply for one of our roles.
I have a criminal record, can I still apply?
Yes. At Capita we have a robust vetting and screening process that appropriately manages risks but that also treats all workers entering our businesses fairly and consistently. Applicants should note that failure to pass vetting checks may result in an offer of employment being withdrawn.
Will I be recruiting frontline soldiers?
You will be recruiting into over 200 of the Army's roles – some of these are Infantry, some work in warehouses managing kit, some are GPs on site looking after the Army soldiers and their families. There is so much variety which is a big reason why recruiting them can be so interesting and rewarding.
I do not have any military experience or knowledge of the Army, is that important?
Not at all. We will provide you with a comprehensive training programme that will equip you with the knowledge and expertise that you need to recruit for the Army.
What career development opportunities could be available to me with Capita in the future?
