Job offers have been made to 200 successful applicants to join the expanding Civil Service Fast Track Apprenticeship Scheme.

Launched last year, the Fast Track Apprenticeship Scheme gives talented school-leavers an alternative route into employment by offering permanent posts at executive officer level in the government.

The scheme offers a variety of roles, from working as a paralegal officer in Birmingham to helping brief ministers in Whitehall.

Apprentices receive training, mentoring and other developmental opportunities to help build their skills, which puts them in a good position to apply for other Civil Service career opportunities at the end of their two-year placement.

Anyone applying for the 2015 scheme must be a non-graduate between the ages of 18 and 21, and have at least five GCSEs (grades A* to C) including English language and maths.
