Here at P&G in the UK we run career academies in Sales, Brand, Finance and Manufacturing & Logistics. These are an excellent opportunity to get a glimpse into what it is like to work for one of the world’s most admired companies and showcase what you could bring to the table. Ready for the challenge?
A career academy forms part of the overall recruitment and selection process and offers the opportunity for mutual trial so you can see if we would be a great fit for you and vice versa. But forget what you have experienced of assessment centres in the past – this is something truly different.
It’s an all-expenses paid two/three day event held at one of our sites. You will have the opportunity to work on genuine business and technical problems, working in teams to find solutions and showcase your natural talent and flare. You will be working on some of our biggest brands just as our employees do everyday. Built in to the days are mini trainings to help build your expertise whilst you are with us. We will be assessing how you problem-solve, lead and think innovatively in the context of P&G work.
But its not all hard work! You will be given the opportunity to spend time with senior management at dinner, socialise and network with our recent graduates and get to know your fellow attendees in informal and fun settings. At previous events we have done pizza making, escape rooms and networking dinners.
If you are successful at the event you will be offered a full time internships or roles with Procter & Gamble.
Here is some feedback from previous attendees to our career academies:
“This is absolutely a point of difference of P&G, I have never been to such an enjoyable day of assessment. It has really shown me what it’s like to work here.”
“I attended a Commercial Careers Academy in December 2018 and started a full time job in sales in January 2019. I couldn’t believe how quick the turnaround was!”
