"I enjoy the HEINEKEN culture as well as the work I am doing in Marketing. HGP provides me with the opportunity to grow and be stretched."

"HGP allows me to rotate across a few departments within my chosen track as well as a cross functional rotation. This provides the graduate trainees with a more holistic view of the business to better prepare us for our landing roles."
Advice: Do your due diligence to get a rough understanding of the function you are applying for (e.g. what they do on a day to day basis) as this allows you to figure out where you can contribute and tell the interviewer what you’d like to learn more about the role.
