Editorial - Enterprise Rent-A-Car Why did you apply for a job with Enterprise?
I was attracted by the .... .... sales manager in the London area.
From there, I moved to our national sales

Describe your current role?
I work in our UK national sales team as an

that we successfully transition new corporate

I work with all departments at Enterprise to
ensure that we have created the right fit for
our customer and for Enterprise – including
our rental operations, contact centre, finance
department, customer service and many
others.
What aspects of your job do you enjoy?

Current job title: Lipton .... .... office in Richmond,
London. I am still working for the Lipton Ice
Tea brand, which has enabled me to have some
continuity through my first year, although I
now work from a supply chain perspective.
This role is more business facing and I enjoy
the project co-ordination required to ensure a
new product is produced at the right location,
in the right bottle, with the right label, on time
and with minimised write off.
My personal highlight so far has been
travelling to New York for a week to attend
the PLI (Pepsi Lipton International) kick-off
event for 2008, in order to showcase the work
done by R&D. This was an amazing insight
into both the world of Pepsi and also the joint

graduate.... .... the University of
London and works as a member of Police
staff. He applied via an advert in the
Guardian for an Intelligence Analyst as he
found himself intrigued by the role and the
potential it offered.
Getting involved in the Met
I chose to apply for the Met because I wanted
to do something that would make a real
difference to people’s lives – something
worthwhile, something to be proud of.
It wasn’t purely an altruistic choice –
the role appealed to me intellectually
and emotionally.
I think the Met looks for people with the
skills that are required for the role, not
necessarily the experience – particularly in a
role like mine. There’s also a personal set of
qualities you need to demonstrate. After all,
whatever you’re doing with or for the Met,
you’re helping in some way to make London
a safer place. ....Read the full Editorial

one of the financial capitals of the world,
I was intrigued by the attraction of the City

finance. I also wanted to create and
implement concrete solutions that would help
businesses. For all these reasons, consulting
in finance seemed to fit the bill. I applied to
a few companies with the right profile and
CHP Consulting stood out from the rest
during the recruitment process, both for their
professionalism and for the respect they
showed towards candidates. I didn't get the
impression that I was just a number,
something which can be a very real feeling at
some of the bigger consulting companies.
Also, CHP replied swiftly after each step of
