The Role
Working for L’Oreal was a dream. I loved every minute of my placement and was devastated leaving it to go back to college.
I received full feedback from my team after every project I completed. This made me feel close to my team and highly valued
I had full support from my manager and team when it came to producing any of my ideas. I had weekly meetings with my manager, this was an opportunity for me to express any concerns I had
It was extremely busy while in my placement but I loved it that way
I worked on a wide range of brands so I was given lots of responsibility, after I gained the trust from my manager.
I received full training in excel, competitor law etc which have prepared me for the industry after I graduate.
The Company
Everyone was very supportive and when I needed any help I had many people I could go too
Extremely organised
Opportunities for online courses
Flexi Time
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
Working from home
Healthcare from home
Very appealing. I have been fortunate to be rewarded a place on the graduate programme
The Culture
There was a good social scene among the interns and colleagues. Our division had quarterly events as apart of the social committee
