When do UK tech graduate schemes open?

Most open between September and December for roles starting the next year. A lot of firms review applications as they arrive, so applying early in the window helps.

Where do these deadlines come from?

Each deadline is read straight from the firm's own applicant tracking system rather than typed up by hand. Where a firm has not published a date, the role is marked as not listed rather than guessed.

Do I need a computer science degree to apply?

Not always. Many software and data roles want a relevant degree or strong coding evidence, but firms also hire from maths, physics and other numerate subjects, and some run conversion routes.
