Engineering services and nuclear company, AtkinsRéalis, has launched an industry-first recruitment campaign with a difference. The firm is searching for the top tech talent to take part in a weekend-long hackathon, with five permanent roles on offer to the winning team.
Technology like robotics, augmented reality, gaming engines and drones are playing an increasingly essential role in delivering clean energy and sustainable infrastructure. AtkinsRéalis’ digital teams are rapidly expanding to develop and deliver new solutions that incorporate advanced technology, and the ‘#HackaFuture’ hackathon is a chance to replace the traditional recruitment process with an event designed to showcase creativity and attitudes over qualifications and experience.
This is a first-of-a-kind recruitment event for the sector in the UK. The ‘#HackaFuture’ event will take place in Manchester on February 8-9, 2025 as part of the Digital Skills Festival
