I'm a uni graduate. I want to work in consulting and I honestly feel an apprenticeship would be best. Is that possible?

Hello - thank you for your question. To apply for an apprenticeship you should be:

Be 18 or over when starting the apprenticeship
Not in full-time education when starting the apprenticeship
UK/EEA Nationality or Permanent Residency Status
Residing in the UK/EEA for at least 3 years prior to starting your apprenticeship

If you're a university graduate, you'd be eligible to apply to the EY Graduate programme as you complete the same qualification but in 3 years instead of 4.5 years. As you've got a degree qualification, you'd be overqualified for the apprentice route so the Graduate scheme is the most suitable option to take.
