Application Tips for Students & Graduates
Do the research
Read up about Rio Tinto, the role and what you need to apply for it. Research now saves time later.
Do not fill in your application form on the bus
Use a proper keyboard to limit the chances of typos, and go somewhere quiet enough for you to concentrate.
Look at all the sections before you start
You do not want any overlap between sections so plan what should go where.
Remember to check
You can always save an application and come back later to check it before you submit. You cannot change it once you have submitted it.
