In addition to hard work and much learning, the social side of an internship should of course not be missing. We have an open and informal atmosphere; there is always room for a coffee break and there are regular Purina drinks or other team events. Additionally, you will receive a 'buddy' from us: an experienced colleague with whom you can share all your experiences and questions.

Lastly, respect is central to the culture of Nestlé; an important part of that is room for differences. Differences in the people who buy our products and in those on our shop floor. We find it important that everyone feels welcome and at home at Nestlé. So, have you become just as enthusiastic as we are? Then apply now!
