Judge

Understand the firm before you apply to it.

The Lios List is a curated set of firms that meet an editorial standard: standing within the sector, selectivity, and the strength of the platform a role provides. Every firm carries a tier, a write-up and the one thing about it you did not know.

Investment bank

Diamond · Financial Services

Write-up

Among the most selective platforms in the sector. Spring week converts strongly to the summer analyst intake, and the summer converts strongly to full-time. Screens on numeracy, composure and a clear reason for the division. Networking matters more than most candidates expect.

Did you know

Roughly half of the summer analyst class comes through the spring week. The window is short and opens early in the autumn.

Dear Graduate Recruitment Team,

I am applying for the Junior Consultant role in the London office. Over two summers at a boutique advisory I built the cost model behind a £40m carve-out and presented the sensitivity analysis to the client’s CFO. I want to do that work at the scale your firm operates at, and I have structured this letter the way your screeners read: impact first, evidence second, enthusiasm last.

Apply

A draft for you to own, written from your material.

The Agent drafts cover letters and CVs from what you give it, not invented claims, against the norms of your sector. You edit every line. Used well it sharpens your own evidence. Used lazily it produces something generic, which screeners spot.

Not a recruiter

Not a recruiter

Lios never submits anything for you. You apply through the firm’s own process. The Agent’s job is to make that process sharper.

Your call

Your call

None of the tooling is required. Never send anything you could not defend in an interview.

Run the window

Then keep the whole application window in one place.

Manage

Every application, one place, no spreadsheet.

Saving is a shortlist. Tracking is active: it moves through stages as you apply, interview and hear back, and it is what powers your dashboard. Tracked roles keep their dates, so the window does not pass you by.

The point

Lios shows fewer jobs than other sites, on purpose. If you want volume, the big boards have it. We are trying to be right, not big.

Who it is for

Structured entry routes, and nothing else.

Students, graduates and candidates going after competitive structured entry routes: graduate schemes, internships, spring weeks, apprenticeships, school-leaver routes and postgraduate intakes. Lios is not a general job board and does not try to be.

Graduate/Junior

Graduate/Junior

Graduate schemes and entry roles.

Internship

Internships and spring weeks.

Apprenticeship

Apprenticeships and school-leaver routes.

Postgraduate

Intakes that open after a master’s or a doctorate.

Lios does not filter you by institution or grades. Individual firms set their own criteria, and that decision always sits with them.

The Stance

Here, you are the customer, not the employer.

No firm can buy its way up your feed, buy a tier, or buy a fit score. That principle shapes what gets listed, how it is ranked, and what we will and will not do with your information.

Built for candidates

A tool that acts in the candidate’s interest rather than the employer’s. Nothing else on the site is allowed to compromise that.

Nothing sponsored

Nothing in your feed is there because someone paid for it. Ranking, tiering and fit scores cannot be bought.

Your data is yours

We do not sell your data. Nothing you upload is shared with firms, and employers cannot see your profile, your saved roles or your tracker.

Your application is yours

We are not a recruiter and we never submit anything for you. You apply through the firm’s own process.

The Assistant

The Assistant

Ask how anything in Lios works and get a straight answer. It gives information, tools and our own view so you can decide well. It is not regulated advice, and it says so.

Independent

Our only official partners are you.

Lios is an independent platform with no official partnerships with the firms on the site. Firm names and logos appear purely to identify the opportunity you are looking at.

Lios is in beta, and it is built in the open. New firms, new surfaces and the reasoning behind them go up as they ship. A good deal of what is in Lios exists because someone asked for it.
