    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I've really enjoyed my time at Pernod Ricard. There are always some more tedious elements then others, but thats just the way of life. The responsibilities given to interns are particularly appreciated, as you can outwardly see completed tasks having a wider effect on the business, as well as consumers when projects go live. The convivial moments, events and conferences just add an extra layer to the enjoymenet, with extra perks I wouldn't get elsewhere.

  • 7. Would you recommend Pernod Ricard to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to Pernod Ricard
  • Make sure you read up on the values and cultute of the company, talk about these in your interview/CV and relate these how you ca. Culture is ingrained in everything we do at Pernod Ricard, so you need to show how you can be apart of that. Whether this is relating this to past experiences, how have you been convivial and how will you get involved. Talk about issues such as Sustainability and D&I, and why do these mean something to you, as they do to the staff of PRUK
