Fieldwork Journey At Mondelēz - My First Brush With Corporate

Keeping the fun and games aside, I was also tasked with quite a few challenging assignments that required high levels of responsibility and accountability on my part. It required me to believe in myself, step up, and take charge. However, while spoon-feeding was never practiced, I would always find a helping hand to show me the ropes- whether from a colleague, sitting across from me, or a Senior in the company- I would always be met with patience.

Before starting my first Fieldwork, I used to think that corporates were places, where people in suits would hustle and discuss business, with an “all work no play” philosophy. Mondelēz completely shattered this notion and instead proved itself to be the workplace of the future in my book- dynamic, fun, and just an all-around great place to be at! My first Fieldwork shall always be the one that I shall cherish the most- it taught me that my lack of experience as a Fresher was not a weakness, but my greatest strength! It helped me understand what companies in the 21st century really want- to grow and to adapt- and to that end, the more hatke your ideas are, the better!
