    • Yes

  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to L'Oreal

    • Try to learn more about the roles you're interested in from former interns as they can be quite different from where you were expecting to end up from your initial application. Then if things do go well and you have the job try to be active, I had limitations because of the pandemic but try to get involved in things earlier and settle on what interests you.
