Telent: does its graduate scheme sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyGraduate Scheme (Project Management and Engineering)

Unconfirmed. Telent publishes no sponsorship policy for its graduate scheme, so we cannot state a firm answer. Telent runs two rotational graduate programmes on its network infrastructure business, one in Project Management aligned to the Association for Project Management competency framework, and one in Engineering accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology. Graduates move placement every six months to see the breadth of the business. Pay is 29,000 pounds with a 1,000 pound welcome payment and rises of up to 2,000 pounds after each six month placement, so the figure moves quickly. Graduates also lead Social Value projects with local organisations. Telent says nothing about visa sponsorship or right to work.

Telent, from its own careers pages
The catch: The 29,000 pound start is under the Skilled Worker salary floor, so sponsorship would be hard even if Telent offered it. The rises after each six month rotation are capped at up to 2,000 pounds, not guaranteed.
