Suresh Narayanan, Chairman and Managing Director, Nestlé India said, "India's future hinges on the energy, capabilities and hard work of our youth and being part of that eco-system, Nestlé India is committed to this imperative. We intend to do our humble bit and play a part helping the youth of the country cope with these unprecedented times, by ensuring that they do not lose out on opportunities to build their professional competence. As a Company, we have always believed that in times of need, we must heed the call of society.
"Through this internship, we would be offering youngsters an opportunity to develop their skills and they will be paid a stipend and awarded a certificate on successful completion of the project. We will also have young mentors for our interns within the organisation to ensure a smooth experience and genuine learning. This initiative is a part of our Global Youth Initiative, 'Nestlé Needs Youth', where we have been focusing on three areas: Employment & Employability, where we have reached over 30,000 youth in India these past 4 years through various programmes; Agripreneurship, where we have trained and enabled many young dairy farmers and coffee farmers; Entrepreneurship, where we currently generate employment for over 600 youth, through out of home MAGGI hotspots or NESCAFÉ Corners".
The registrations for the internship programme will begin on 8 July 2020 and will be communicated through various social media channels such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram as well as Internshala website. The registrations will remain open for 3 days and any student irrespective of their field/stream can apply for the internship. The shortlisting will be carried, keeping in mind various parameters, including high school marks, graduation score, and other elements such as previous experience/ internships, if applicable.
Nesternship will also offer a platform for developing the soft skills of the interns through pre-recorded learning sessions.
In addition to the Nesternship, and soft skills training, Nestlé India is also committed to running a CV Clinic for the interns to help them enhance their employability.
