10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Unilever?

My biggest piece of advice is dont look at an apprenticeship at Unilever from just a perspective of what you have to gain. Unilever provides many opportunities to give and show your skills. Unilever is huge and theres always something going on. You will have many opportunities to upskill yourself and help others.
