Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I specifically worked within our Luxe department. I communicated with internal and external stakeholders everyday, including retailers and senior management internally at L'Oreal. I would have high involvement with new launches and our online presence. I also worked on multiple media campaigns to increase brand awareness, including social media campaigns, OOH and sampling campaigns with publishers.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Throughout my year i gained a lot of experience through managing my own tasks and processes. I became a trusted team member within the team and ended up managing campaigns from start to finish with external agencies.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have learnt and immense amount of skills since working at L'Oreal. My communication and presenting skills have improved like no other. I used to find presenting daunting and would be very anxious to present, however, now it feels like second nature and I surprisingly now enjoy it.
I have also learnt how to efficiently multi-task and prioritise tasks to ensure I am producing work to a high level and to deadlines.

I received a lot of support throughout my internship. I had weekly 1-1 with my managers and they were also around all day every day to ask any questions I may have. The whole team was extremely supportive and I felt comfortable approaching different team members of seniority.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
There was great morale within the team and a lovely atmosphere to come to work to every day. We would all celebrate our personal achievements and be there for each other if any one needed any extra support. This is one of the reasons why I would love to work for L'Oreal again in the future.
