The Role
I have really enjoyed my placement - i have learnt so much and developed so many skills
I have always been treated like one of the team. I have been trusted to do my lead my own tasks and projects and always given support and freedom when needed
i have been given losts of support from not just my line manager but my whole team - everyone always makes time to help you out.
Always very busy - there is a large amount of work to do - i was never bored or lacking work. even if there is a quiet day you have loads of ways to help with self devleopment
lost - but i was given it when i was ready to for it - i wasnt thrown in at the deepend but helped and mentored to get to the point where i was able to lead accounts and projects
i have learnt lots of life skills and lessons throughout my placement that helped me during my time at unilever and will go on to help me finish uni and do well in my future career.
The Company
great atmosphere, everyone is very friendly and helpful - you are always able to pop over to peoples desks to talk about anything. Losts of very supportive poeople in the office
very organised - if ever i had a question there was clear people who i knew who to ask for help from. there was also regular catch ups and check its to makesure we were clear on how we were doing and the processes right from the beginning/ before we were in the office
there was lots of oportunities for personal development - i have taken part in a huge amount of development courses and also have a whole portal where you can work and learn new skills and new interests in your own and work time

Very applealing but also very competitive to get onto. Lots of ways to stay working within Unilever after placement.
The Culture
very good - people who live near to the office often all go out and spend time together outside of work from across all the functions
it is expensive and in leatherhead there isnt loads to do but there are lots of direct routes into london which can be expensive
pretty quiet but there are direct routes into london so you can still go out with colleges afterwork or on a weekend
yes lots of sports competitions, we also have alot of charity events and oportunites to volunteer in the local community
