TALENT POOL

Joining our Edit Assistant Talent Pool will enable you to be offered work as and when opportunities arise. Appointment to the pool will not entitle candidates to permanent contracts in the BBC, those will have to be applied for in the normal way, and neither does it guarantee work.

When we're looking to hire we may approach individuals from the talent pool directly if they have the specific skills and experience required. On other occasions we will send roles to the whole group. If you are informed about an opportunity via the talent pool you will still need to attend an interview or assessment for the role, and most likely enter into a competitive process with other candidates.
