It has been over a year since the Undergraduate of the Year Awards 2015 and I've learned a lot in the ten months that I've been at L'Oréal so far. Both the award and the placement that followed have given me invaluable experience that I believe would help me in whatever career I decide to pursue.

I've launched products and managed my own projects and budgets; delivered on leading digital initiatives that my brand had never done before; coordinated my own team to help organise our annual National Conference; and also exposed myself to very different experiences, from legal, commercial and digital to PR and photoshoots!

This time last year, I would've never thought I could be gaining so much by spending a year in industry and I'm glad I took the decision to defer my postgraduate year for this. I've learned a lot about my strengths and blind spots and I am clear on what my areas of development are. I now feel well prepared for whatever I finally decide to do in the future!
