Please describe your career in P&G so far (i.e. including locations, functions and GBU/MDO)
I have been with P&G for the past 4 months, doing an internship for Baby Care CMK in the Geneva WE Headquarters (GBU).

What is the one best thing about working at P&G?
Waking up to ever-changing work each day, collaborating with open-minded people who are passionate and like to talk and share their work with you. Being exposed to an environment where you are constantly learning really interesting stuff.    

What was your most exciting project?
I am conducting a Price Sensitivity Analysis for Baby Wipes in France. At a time of recession, all learnings on price and value are vital for the business and so it’s fundamental all the findings I have answer the questions of my counterparts in CBD, Finance, etc.. Moreover, it is the project that gave more opportunities to interact with other functions and external suppliers.

Tell us more about your hobbies/special interests.
I am keen traveller and discoverer of cultures and places. Apart from that I have a special interest in politics and how we build our society. I’m also an avid reader and I read everything I can get my hands on, from sports newspapers to Monocle magazine.
