Overview
Working for L'Or茅al Professionnel in the Indirect Marketing Team I regularly networked with the wider team to provide them physical in store marketing assets to provide for their accounts stores across the UK. This included panels for Free Standing Display Units, Shelf Barkers to go alongside our products, and the creations of Blogs and Cheat Sheets to help educate both store staff and hairdressers and salon owners.
Skills
This internship helped me develop a plethora of new and existing skills. Time Management and organisational skills were key for me to succeed in my role with the amount of multi-tasking that is required. Communication skills are invaluable in any job and are very transferable. There is a need to work independently which will allow you try courses and learn skills on platforms such as Excel, Office and PowerPoint.
Responsibilities
Definitely. Throughout the year as you get more comfortable in your role, the more responsibility you are given. Some of my responsibilities included providing approximately 260 packs of barkers to be available to order for our various accounts, and also organising the send-out for over 250 store kits to different wholesale store across the United Kingdom.
Support & Guidance
Since I started my internship, I had regular meetings with my manager to help me manage all my tasks I had up and coming, as well as additional meetings when required. My manager was amazing! L'Or茅al has a very family-orientated environment meaning everyone is very collaborative and always willing to help you whenever you ask for help.
Culture
The atmosphere was really uplifting and friendly. Whenever I needed help with something, there would always be someone who was available and willing to provide me with the help I needed.
Your Impressions
My placement was thoroughly enjoyable and very beneficial to my future growth and employability. It helped me gain a great understanding of the business environment and provided me with a level of responsibility that allowed me to feel and be truly involved with the company. My aim is to apply for the graduate scheme in the hope of returning to L'Or茅al in the near future.
Yes
L'Or茅al will help you learn so much about who you really are. Be true to who you are and L'Or茅al will accept you for who you are. As long as you show a willingness to learn from your team and manager and you will reap the rewards. Remain honest with your manager/team as this will allow them to offer help when needed, after all, they work their for a reason, they're the experts! Make sure you make the most of this opportunity, believe me it flies past! Most importantly, network and make friends with people, it'll never hurt to know people in the right places in the future...
