Coca-Cola Beverages Florida’s Post

Transcript

Did you know that most of our Coke Florida summer interns are based out of our Tampa headquarters, but we do have interns at other facilities throughout the state of Florida? At the University of North Florida here in Jacksonville. I am a senior at the time, so I got about six months till I graduate. Let's go. I'm a business administration major with a minor focused on human resource management. I'm going to be working with the quality assurance team. Umm, on my internship. Hi, my name is Paige Rodriguez. I go to the University of Georgia. I'm going to be a senior in the fall. My major is Agri business and I have a minor in food and fiber marketing and I'm a part of the sales department here in Tampa. Greetings, I am Jacqueline Martin. I recently graduated from Florida Agriculture and Mechanical University and I'm currently an intern and the HR department at Cocoa, FL. My favorite Coke product would have to be Fanta. Sure if you could see it, but it's been my all time favorite since I was a kid. My favorite Coke product right now is the new Sprite Chill. I tried it last week for the first time and I've been obsessed ever since. My favorite coke product probably has to be Cherry Coke. I love the flavor of coke in the middle, a little bit of cherry flavor in them. Favorite part of the internship? As a field intern, I've been able to work with pretty much everyone in every department. I found it really cool to get hands on with each unique part of the business and kind of just learn how everyone does their job and how it relates to every other job. My favorite thing about the Coke Florida internship so far is getting to meet all the new people. I've just met so many great people across the few weeks that I've been here, and I'm so excited to be even more the rest of summer. My favorite part so far about this internship is a culture that is around the workplace. Everyone is really nice and all the people are just always really welcoming and nice to you, and it's just such a positive work environment to be around. The project that I am going to be working on starting today is helping the batching team and quality assurance team store their product in a more efficient way and order product predictively in a more efficient way in order to reduce the amount of. Potential liability we have on hand with the cost of product. So it's going to be very interesting project and I look forward to working on it. So my favorite project that I've been working on thus far is I've been shadowing all of the different sales rolled in the field. So I've been with the district sales manager, a sales account manager, a field sales Rep from various different stores. So I've just been going out in the field with them, meeting up, talking to different store managers, customers, making sure everything's OK. So I really like doing that role because I get the opportunity to interact with people outside of Coke Florida, interact with our customers who buy our products and sell our products. So I really enjoyed doing that. One project that I'm currently working on is how to. Promote financial awareness, mental health awareness, and physical health awareness around the work environment.
