Overview of the Role
Overall, how would you describe your experience at Premier Foods?
The assessment centre was an incredibly positive experience. The team at Premier Foods are very welcoming and kind, and help to remove the pressure from the day as much as possible.
In role, I have had a similar experience. My team are really supportive, we all look out for each other. People are understanding that this is my first proper job, so I am still learning. Outside of my team, it is nice to have a good graduate cohort, we get on well, and the wider company is always very friendly.

What are the main responsibilities of the role and which elements of the role do you enjoy the most?
I am still early in my employment, however I have really enjoyed helping with social media and influencer campaigns for my brands. I have had responsibility of my own projects early on, with guidance from a line manager, which is incredibly useful for my development.

When considering the recruitment & onboarding process, have you any specific tips or advice you would give to others applying to Premier Foods?
The assessment centre day is fast paced, with a teamwork-based task, skills and presentation task (numerical / presentation based, to test your problem solving skills and thought process), and an individual interview. Prepare as best you can for all of these. Remember that for the teamwork task, it is not about winning, you must also be able to compromise. For the individual interview, know about Premier Foods and be prepared to ask about the role / company - it is a good time to get some intel on what your future at Premier Foods could look like as a grad.
Be prepared to travel around for the first 2-3 weeks of employment - the agenda is packed with inductions. This is a great time to make friends with the graduate cohort.
