FAQ

Once you have applied online you will be short-listed for the events you have requested.

3 - 4 weeks before the event, we will text you with further information. If you do not hear from us do get in touch again, but it may be that demand has been too great for everyone to be offered work.

You need to prove that you have the right to work in the UK before you are able to work at one of our events. The easiest way to do this is with an EU passport if you have one. If not then there are a number of other options of what you can use, including if you are an international student.
