Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
In Security and Compliance, you manage your own workflow by picking up tickets surrounding issues related to SAP applications and then ensuring you're compliant throughout the solution. Outside of this, you also get the opportunity to work on big projects and be a contact for SAP access throughout. For Technology Solutions, I focused on monitoring the incoming demand and assisting with tech support shifts.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, you get treated like an equal employee and therefore get to take on just as much responsibilities and ownership of tasks.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Nestlé to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Nestlé
To prepare for the interview, I'd recommend looking on glassdoor for interview question ideas and to record your answers and listen back to them. For the assessment centre, the best thing to do is just to remain calm and try to enjoy it, you just need to be yourself and show that you're very passionate about the opportunity.
