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

    • The interview process is lengthy and challenging but necessary when you start the role and see what it involved. The interview is quite relaxed so be confident and out going, ensuring you make it known that you are willing to learn. There is a case study assessment which was quite intense but the interviewer tries to make the experience as realistic as possible. Again, be confident in what you are saying and do not be afraid to voice your ideas.
