About the Challenge
» What is the P&G Business Challenge Launch Event for?
The Launch Event will give you:
  1. a better understanding of P&G, the FMCG Industry and the different functions/departments available, and
  2. for you to sit for the Problem Solving Test (PST), which is compulsory for every applicant to sit and pass PST. In other words, in order to be selected for the P&G Business Challenge, you must pass the PST.

» What is this P&G Business Challenge for? What are the benefits for me?
It's mainly to give you a short-cut to getting a full-time offer from P&G and at the same time get a real intensive experience of working in P&G. Just imagine having an offer to work in P&G as early as 1 year before you even graduate! On top of that, you will:
  1. Get involve to solve real-life business case studies
  2. Be interviewed for a full-time job offer when you graduate
  3. Work in a team with talents from various top universities
  4. Mingle with P&G Top Managers - learn from their experience and advice
  5. Mingle with P&G New Hires - hear unbiased experience of our new hires in P&G
  6. Participate in P&G's Open Minds Program - a corporate program to help special children
  7. Have some good fun during your holiday while tackling some serious business case studies

» I am not able to attend the P&G Business Challenge Launch Event and thus won't be able to sit for the Problem Solving Test (PST). Would I still be in the running to be selected as one of the participants of P&G Business Challenge?
Apart from the main intent of giving the students the opportunity to learn about P&G and the FMCG industry, the Launch Event is also meant to "bring the process to the candidates".

This means that we are making it easier for you to sit for PST by arranging it together with the Launch Event. You can still always contact us to arrange for a PST session at our office.

Please contact the Recruitment Coordinator by calling +603 5630 7858 or by emailing to pgmalrecruit.im[at]pg.com.

Am I Eligible For The Challenge?
» I am currently in the UK / US / Australia but will be back in Malaysia for holiday by July. Am I still eligible for the P&G Business Challenge?
Yes. This P&G Business Challenge has been designed to be able to gather a congregation of Malaysian penultimate year students who are on holiday mainly from US Universities, UK Universities, local Malaysian Universities and Australian/New Zealand Universities. Just make sure to attend the P&G Business Challenge Launch Event so you can sit for PST.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» I am currently in my final year and graduating soon. Can I apply for the P&G Business Challenge?
The P&G Business Challenge is designed specifically for the penultimate year students who still have at least an academic year to go before graduating. You may still be considered if you have somewhere between 6 months and 1 year left. If you're graduating soon (graduating in the coming 6 months or less), please apply directly to available positions we have right now by visiting pgjobs.com and search under Malaysia.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» I still have more than 2 academic years to go before graduating (e.g. in 2nd year of a 4-year course or in 1st year of a 3-year course), can I apply for the P&G Business Challenge?
This P&G Business Challenge will be run every year. We appreciate your interest and admire the spirit and eagerness that you have. However, as this P&G Business Challenge is catered for penultimate year students, please apply when you're in your penultimate year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» Can I still apply if 1) I have been interviewed by P&G before but failed or 2) I have sat for PST before but failed or 3) have completed online Success Drivers Assessments before but failed?
You may only go through the process again after 12 months from the time you failed any of our assessments - be it Success Drivers Assessment, Problem Solving Test, and the interviews.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» I am not pursuing a business / commerce course (e.g. Engineering, Sciences, Arts, etc). Can I still apply to P&G and this P&G Business Challenge?
Field of study is not part of the selection process. Here in P&G we accept any area of study but you must at least be working on a Bachelor's Degree or a Professional Paper like ACCA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» I am not a Malaysian citizen. Can I still apply for this P&G Business Challenge which is held in Malaysia?
This P&G Business Challenge is catered only for Malaysian citizens. There are various student program events / business games events conducted by P&G Worldwide, which mostly serve as a recruitment activity or equity building program targeting at students from its own country.

Your Holidays and The Challenge
» I will be back in Malaysia for holiday a lot sooner than the P&G Business Challenge Launch Event. Can I sit for the Problem Solving Test (PST) earlier?
Yes, you may sit for PST earlier. Just contact the Recruitment Coordinator to arrange for your PST session during weekdays by calling +603 5630 7858 or by emailing to pgmalrecruit.im@pg.com. We still recommend that you attend the launch event as we will touch on FMCG Industry as a whole, P&G as Company, career options in P&G and etc. among others. Of course, you can also meet and talk to P&G Managers to ask any question.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
» I will not be in Malaysia during the time P&G Business Challenge is being held. Will there be another P&G Business Challenge?
