Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Unilever to a friend?

Yes

Why?

I would recommend Unilever apprenticeships to anyone looking for a placement, graduate scheme or apprenticeship. They are highly accommodating for the Cohorts and allow us the necessary skill development in all areas setting us up for promising career paths

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Unilever?

Be yourself, companies do not expect you to have a huge portfolio of developed skills. Be confident and make sure that you do demonstrate any skills you have already gained. Make sure you know and understand the companies values and goals.
