NESTLE Commercial Graduate Program
The ProGrad recruitment drive has begun to source Nestle’s top graduates for their latest graduate recruitment drive across Australia. Many of the pre-selected candidates have been asked to attend assessment days with ProGrad over forthcoming weeks, however if you havent yet applied and would like to be considered for a role, please contact our Graduate Recruitment Team at ProGrad on 02 8235 8300. Virginia is one of our Graduate Recruiters helping Nestle with the intake, and she is looking for graduates with at least 12 months of commercial experience ready to embark on a rotational graduate program within this multinational.
Nestle have an incredible culture and can offer a range of careers for graduates following a successful 2 year sales and marketing program. Based at their offices, the graduates are exposed to a variety of brands and start their commercial career within their field sales team, looking after a designated territory. Following a successful rotation here, the graduates also have the ability to move into Marketing.
Nestle have a generous salary on offer for suitable candidates, along with various incentives to reward top performance and encourage longevity in their business.
Last year, the intake was hugely successful and Nestle have seen 100% retention with their graduate recruits. This was also due to the rigorous screening that Nestle conduct, 
not only within the ProGrad assessment day but also using the Nestle values as a way of assessing a cultural fit.
The key attributes they are looking for include, confidence, strong communication skills, the ability to problem solve and think laterally, and the ability to work cohesively within a team environment. Successful candidates last year demonstrated a real drive to be successful and a real passion for the Nestle brand. The organisation is a true believer in hiring graduate talent and nurturing this talent through the business. The opporutnities for successful candidates are endless within this organisation.
