Application & Assessment Preparation | Nestlé

To apply for one of our Academy programmes, you’ll need to answer a few eligibility questions. If you meet our criteria you will progress to our short application questionnaire.

On our short application form you’ll tell us a bit about yourself, and state your contact details and qualifications. Thousands of people apply to our Academy schemes every year — submit your application as soon as you can to maximise your chances.

Following the submission of your application form, you’ll answer some demographic questions before starting your online assessment. Declaring any condition with us will not impact your application negatively, but it will inform us to reach out to understand what level of support you will need and any reasonable adjustments.

Our user-friendly digital assessment is designed to give applicants an immersive experience of what it’s like to work at Nestlé, and to monitor your behaviour in a range of situations.

We may ask you to:

• Place responses to a given scenario in order, from the least to the most likely course of action you would take.
• Select the most appropriate response to a question or scenario from those provided.
• Indicate on a scale where you would place your actions or views.

Your responses will help us determine whether you’d enjoy working at Nestlé and if you have the overall strengths and attitudes required to succeed here. That’s why honesty is so important

After your Online Assessment, you may be invited to complete our Job Simulation. This is an exciting digital assessment that gives you even more insight into the role you’ve applied for by simulating real life scenarios and providing information to read, watch and listen.

You’ll complete tasks that replicate key aspects of the role, and we’ll monitor your responses and ask questions to understand the action you took. This may also involve recording a video response and completing written responses for us to review.

The next stage of the Academy recruitment process is the Assessment Centre. This will be held either virtually or at one of our Nestlé sites, and will be a half- or full-day event. You will be assessed in a series of exercises that measure your natural strengths. This is your opportunity to show us what you’re made of—so be prepared and always be yourself.

Your Assessment Centres could include some of these activities:

• Interview – You’ll be asked a number of motivational and strengths-based questions. Be ready to give full answer to the questions with examples and plenty of enthusiasm. We’re looking for your understanding of Nestlé values and your passion for the role you’ve applied for.
• Challenge – On the day of your Assessment Centre you will be given a brief and asked to prepare a number of solutions for assessment by a manager.

All employment offers are subject to the satisfactory completion of our pre-employment screening process. This includes checks relating to your employment history, gap verification and confirmation of your identity. For certain roles additional checks may be required. If this is the case, the Talent Acquisition team will notify you during the application process.
