At the beginning…

I am a final year Food and Human Nutrition student, which means it is time to apply for graduate jobs!
In July 2008 I completed a 12 month placement working for Cadbury as a product developer, which I really enjoyed, so I have decided to apply for research and development graduate schemes within the food industry.
I have already begun the long winded graduate job application process with Marks and Spencer, Mars, Sainsburys, Tesco and Unilever, so I plan to blog about my experiences throughout the application process with these companies as well as my previous knowledge of applying to and working for Cadbury.
I hope that this will give you a useful insight into different application processes as well as passing on valuable tips and hints I pick up along the way, so you can be better prepared when it is your turn!
