NESTLE MANAGEMENT TRAINEE 2013

NESTLE MANAGEMENT TRAINEE 2013

Saya ingin menceritakan sedikit mengenai pengalaman saya menjadi bagian dari MT Nestle 2013. Mungkin proses seleksi nya dari tahun ke tahun mengalami sedikit perubahan, tapi inti nya tetap sama. Waktu awal mendaftar saya memilih bagian Commercial yaitu sales dan marketing, dan ternyata saya ditempatkan di divisi Infant Nutrition. MT Nestle Batch 2013 terdiri dari 14 orang terpilih dari ribuan pendaftar.

Saya sangat bersyukur karena banyak pembelajaran yang bisa saya dapatkan sebagai MT, karena ketika lulus dari universitas sebenarnya ilmu yang kita miliki baru teoritis, disini saya jadi belajar ilmu bisnis secara aplikatif. Program MT ini adalah semacam program “akselerasi” yang dirancang untuk mempersiapkan “future leader” perusahaan. Benefit dari MT adalah mereka memiliki kesempatan untuk meraih jenjang karir dengan lebih cepat dibanding karyawan regular. Tugas utama MT adalah belajar sebanyak-banyaknya mengenai bisnis Nestle dan memberikan ide improvement  sepanjang end-to-end process melalui project-project yang diberikan.
Program MT Nestle terdiri dari 3 tahapan. Tahap pertama terdiri dari satu bulan in class training dimana kita belajar mengenai culture dan value Nestle, introduksi dari masing-masing divisi, dan juga pelatihan softskill. Tahap kedua berlangsung selama 5 bulan, yaitu rotasi ke semua divisi sepanjang value stream Nestle. Sedangkan pada tahap ketiga yaitu 1,5 tahun kita baru akan bergabung dengan divisi terpilih masing-masing. Jadi total program MT selama 2 tahun dan setiap 6 bulan sekali kita harus presentasi untuk evaluasi performa kita.

Hal utama yang dilihat dari seorang MT adalah personality nya, apakah dia memiliki value dan attitude yang sesuai dengan value Nestle. Seorang MT dituntut untuk memiliki jiwa kepemimpinan, curiosity yang tinggi, mudah beradaptasi, kreatif dan aktif memberikan ide, focus dan berusaha keras mencapai tujuan.
Di Nestle kita memiliki kesempatan exposure internasional yang cukup baik karena dalam keseharian  pekerjaan, kita berinteraksi dengan karyawan dari berbagai nasionalitas. Nestle juga memiliki concern for business sustainability mengenai keseimbangan sumberdaya alam, pengembangan masyarakat dan pengolahan limbah melalui program CSV (creating shared value). Semua pembelajaran selama menjadi MT Nestle menurut saya menarik, terutama orang-orang inspiring yang saya temui disini. Hal yang unik dalam program MT Nestle ini, kita memiliki mentor dan coach yang merupakan Director dan Manager divisi kita. Mereka secara rutin akan memberikan bimbingan kepada MT masing-masing, persis seperti pembimbing skripsi dan bahkan kita diberikan journey book yang harus diisi seperti kartu bimbingan skripsi, hheJ

 Tahapan seleksi MT Nestle Indonesia
- Pertama seleksi berkas, yaitu mengirimkan satu lembar formulir yang telah disediakan Nestle. Dalam form ini kita harus menuliskan mengenai diri kita secara ringkas, padat, jelas dan menjual. Biasanya pendaftaran dibuka bulan April-Mei.

- Tahap kedua disebut dengan “3 minutes pitching” diadakan pada campus roadshow di 4 kota besaryaitu Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Malang. Saya mengikuti roadshow yang diadakan di UI. Pada 3 minutes pitching kita diberikan satu buah pertanyaan yang harus dijawab dalam 3 menit dengan menggunakan bahasa inggris. Pada tahap ini yang dinilai adalah cara berkomunikasi, kemampuan public speaking, dan kelancaran berbahasa inggris. 

- Tahap ketiga yaitu psikotest yang diadakan sebagaimana psikotest pada umumnya, yaitu untuk menilai logika, kemampuan memecahkan masalah dan daya analisis.

- Tahap keempat yaitu Assessment Day. Pada tahap ini dilakukan penilaian FGD (Focus Group Discussion). Kita dikelompokkan berdasarkan divisi yang  dipilih, kemudian diberikan waktu untuk membaca dan mendiskusikansebuah business case. Pada tahap ini dinilai kemampuan menganalisis permasalahan, kemampuan berargumentasi, berperan kontributif dalam memberikan ide, dapat menghargai pendapat orang lain, tidak pasif tapi tidak juga mendominasi. Setelah FGD selesai, pada hari yang sama juga diadakan interview personal oleh HR.

- Tahap kelima yaitu personal presentation diikuti dengan interview oleh Board of Director. Disini kita diberikan kesempatan untuk tampil meyakinkan dan memberikan impression yang kuat bahwa kita adalah orang yang tepat untuk Nestle. Tahap terakhir yaitu medical check-up.
HARUMI AINI PROFILE

Interview biasanya merupakan tahap penentuan, tentu saja first impression sangat penting. Sebuah penelitian mengatakan rata-rata dalam 90 detik pertama, atasan sudah dapat menilai diri  kita. Penampilan harus rapi dan professional, dalam menjawab pertanyaan harus relax dan mengalir seperti bercerita saja. Jangan lupa tersenyum dan kontak mata yang baik agar terlihat percaya diri. Saat interview kita harus menunjukkan sisi menarik pada diri kita yang membedakan kita dengan orang lain. Jika ingin bergabung dalam multinasional company tentu interview dilakukan dalam bahasa inggris, siapkan diri mulai dari sekarang untuk memperlancar percakapan bahasa Inggris.

Melamar pekerjaan bukanlah hal yang dapat disiapkan dalam semalaman hanya dengan membuat CV yang bagus atau mempersiapkan jawaba nyang baik atas pertanyaan interview. CV kita sebenarnya merupakan cerminan, sejauh mana kita telah mengembangkan diri kita sepanjang masa perkuliahan. Jangan tunggu sampai sidang atau bahkan wisuda untuk memulai mencari pekerjaan, karena proses penerimaan karyawan baru biasanya memakan waktu berbulan-bulan.Khususnya di Nestle, walaupun belum lulus pun sudah bisa mendaftar sebagai MT dan diberikan  kesempatan cuti untuk sidang dan wisuda. Pastikan kita yakin bidang pekerjaan apa yang ingin kita geluti, cari tahu informasi sebanyak-banyaknya dari kakak kelas mengenai pekerjaan tersebut. Yang paling penting adalah know yourself, be yourself and believe in yourself! Selamat memasuki dunia kerja dan sampai jumpa di langit kesuksesan masing-masing!

Future Goals - A HNMUN 2013 Selection Essay

My Future Goals Define My Successful Life

Harumi Aini
Beswan Djarum 27 RSO Jakarta


There are so many decisions to take, and there are also so many changes in this life. However, the choices that we make and the way we run this life will establish our future. Setting an obvious goal in our life is one way to reach success. A person needs to achieve certain goals in one’s life before you can call them successful. Success is to achieve goals that we have set. Goals motivate us to achieve our dreams and hopes. I consider myself as a dreamer. I dream not just in my sleep, but I try to make all of my dreams become true. Once I dream about something, it becomes my desire. Then I wrote it down, and it becomes my future goals. Those future goals become my motivation for the accomplishment of my goals, to finally become an achievement.

A meaningful statement that usually motivates me is “World will step aside to give way for those who know their goals. And be sure that they will reach their goals because they have prepared it.” Stated by David Starr Jordan. I am still in the process of making my dreams come true. I try to fill my days with meaningful activities, so I can live a useful life and be useful for others. I live my life with dynamics, it makes life not boring and more interesting. I like to explore new different things that can open up my minds. I’m not afraid of trying something and failed because I believe that success doesn’t belong to those who never fall, but those who could get up from their failure. I usually categorize my goals into immediate goals and long term goals.

Immediate goals are the goals that I have planned to be achieved in a short period. After I list the goals I want to accomplished, then I plot out the steps to get there, then figuring out which ones must be taken first and keep updating my goals after I successfully accomplished one of the goals. My current immediate goal is enrich myself with proper education and additional skills also experiences during my college time. We need to have descent education to compete in this global era. The future global competition will require me to go through education and self-development programs. I plan on gaining additional skills, like leadership and cooperation, by my involvement in a variety of associations or organizations. I develop my potentials on public speaking and debating by joining several competitions. I also believe that communication and networking are very important skills that I need for a professional development. That is why I will continue my professional development by participating in conferences, attending seminars, taking some courses and workshops, then hopefully can continue my post-graduate education abroad one day. I believe that we have to enhance global partnership throughout the world. That is the reason why I like to be involved in some international events like Asia-Africa Youth Forum or Model United Nations. I experienced the benefits from joining those events like sharpen my diplomacy skill, expand my network, gain new information and knowledge, widen my way of thinking perspective, and many more. International events are also a good way to be Indonesia’s ambassador. We can promote and represent our country to the world as a part of young generation’s responsibility.

One of my long term goals is to be an entrepreneur. ‘To be a job creator, not a job seeker’; that is my future goal. Indonesia is currently in a lack condition of job fields. Entrepreneurship is indeed one of the driving motors that can be a solution to the economic problems in Indonesia. I have a desire to be an entrepreneur since a very young age, but I also realize the process of being a good entrepreneur is not easy. To achieve my dream for being an entrepreneur, I have been through several steps. I started to sell some products to my friends when I was in junior high school, then in senior high school I joined a student company to improve my capability in entrepreneurship. Now in college, together with my friends I am currently running a culinary business which is Fish Kebab. We already have one outlet located in our campus and we are still in the process to develop this business.

I also have another plan in developing a business. Together with my mother, I have planned to open a chocolate shop business. I believe that Indonesia is the third largest producer of cocoa but we still don’t have many processed chocolate industry. We still export raw cocoa bean, while actually we have the potentials on increasing the added value of cocoa itself. To prepare myself on the business, I had taken lesson at a chocolate school to learn the techniques of chocolate processing and to gain knowledge about chocolate industry. We have already invested the equipments which are needed in the business and we already made some surveys also other preparations. We plan to open the chocolate shop in these following months and hopefully this could be the right path for the accomplishment of my dream.

Another future goal of mine is always be a useful person who can give good influences to my surroundings, that is what I always wanted to be. I like to spend my spare times to be involved in several social and community development activities. Through those activities, I hope I can be a useful person. I believe we live in this world not just for our own happiness but we should also aware and care for others. I really wanted to give real contribution regarding social problems happen around us. Until this day, I have participated in some volunteering projects on education and entrepreneurship in villages. It gives me great experiences and motivation to do and give more to my beloved country.  My future goal is one day if I become a successful entrepreneur, I will have my own foundation as a Corporate Social Responsibility so I can give good impacts to my society and surroundings.

My happiness in what I do is also a goal for me in my life. There is no way someone can become successful if they are not happy with what they are doing. If their job is going to make them miserable, they will never show 100% efforts in their work. I am happy on what I am doing now, I am so thankful for this life and I hope happiness, hard work, and prayer can lead me to accomplish my dreams, goals, and reach a successful life.
