During my final year of university, I was looking for opportunities to advance my professional development without knowing exactly where I wanted to take my career. After months of searching for roles on LinkedIn and stalking ‘corporate life’ social media influencers, my scrolling paid off as I was pushed an ad for the CEO for One Month Programme.

At first, I assumed the opportunity was too good to be true, but eventually figured that applying might be worth a go. I turned out to be 100% right as, aside from being selected for the role, the entire application process was fantastic. From the online tests to the assessment centre, each stage provided invaluable feedback that I still carry with me today.

CEO for One Month itself provided two huge insights: understanding the role of a senior business leader, and exposure to a wealth of different businesses and functions.

Firstly, by shadowing highly experienced executives, I developed insights into the skills and approaches required to be an effective leader that I doubt would have been possible in any other entry-level position.

Secondly, I was exposed to a range of potential careers through the sheer breadth of services and business areas within The Adecco Group. From recruitment to Diversity & Inclusion programmes, Learning and Development offerings and various other business functions, including Sales & Marketing, Legal, HR, etc., the programme allowed me to explore several different roles and discover where my interests truly aligned.

Since CEO for One Month, I have completed a grad scheme at EZRA- a digital coaching scale up within the Adecco Group- working in both the Strategy & Business Operations, and Marketing functions. The opportunity allowed me to continue exploring potential career paths and pursuing my professional development through a range of opportunities including a personal coach, learning budget and exposure to important projects across the business.
