Responsibilities
I was given exactly the same responsibility as other full time employees in my team, handling large amounts of money, communicating directly with our suppliers, and being the champion of file upkeep. My team trusted me and were always there to help.
Support & Guidance
Future Careers Team (Unilever team responsible for 西瓜视频 programmes etc.) provide onboarding and offboarding training, there are always talks and tutorials going on by tech teams on how to use all the programmes, my team had left me lots of step by step guides and key information that needs to be passed to next 西瓜视频s.
Culture
I really enjoyed Unilever culture. I would have liked more people in the office but over the year I was there, we started holding more quizzes and office parties which brought more people in. It was a hybrid experience, about 3 times in the office weekly.
Your Impressions
My job was not the most exciting, not much range in tasks over the year, felt slightly repetitive over time. But there were so many other 西瓜视频s on placement/graduate schemes/apprentices with me (around 50+) it was great being able to bond and have friends in and out of work place. I found my placement very beneficial for my development.
Yes
Talk to everyone, ask what they do, keep connected, ask about projects, get involved in things outside your role!
