Original reporting, great writing and intelligent commentary lie at the heart of FT journalism. Our readers trust us to produce quality journalism that is accurate, fair and insightful. This is why FT editorial staff do not by default use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to write articles or create other reader-facing content. For specific and pre‑approved cases, AI can be harnessed for certain tasks, such as assisting data research for investigations. We expect applicants to refrain from using AI in their test submissions, and any written materials should be a genuine reflection of their own knowledge, skills and experiences.

We encourage candidates to use AI only as a tool to help with research and interview readiness for a role. Candidates should be aware that the use of AI throughout the application process is monitored to ensure a fair and transparent hiring process for all.

Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion: We believe in the power of unique perspectives and want all voices in our organisation to be heard, respected and valued.
