Prosple Profiles

I am a travel consultant and my responsibilities include organising and managing holidays for my clients and ensuring the store runs smoothly on a day to day basis.

Always take up every opportunity you are given. There have been many times that I have turned down an opportunity because I didn’t think I was good enough. The opportunities missed could have been very valuable experiences.

The Unilever Graduate Program is fantastic because you are exposed to so many different facets of the business during your rotation.

Don’t get disheartened if you don’t get a job immediately after graduation. Do not have very high expectations from your first job, as it is more about the learning curve at that point in time.

I would like to suggest to students that they look out for their interests and keep searching for them till the time they do succeed. Once they are sure of their interests, they should try to let go of the stipend and place their primary focus on gaining all the experience that they could.

The changing variety and volume of tasks, whether I am working from the office or at the client site, gives you the opportunity to ‘taste the fruit’ and accelerate your professional development.
