Anchor Yeast • Technical Application Manager • Product development • Trouble shooting, technical support
Tips • Don’t rule anything out- Crown and the meat industry • Be confident in your education-knowledge vs application • If you are good at what you do, you will do well • Get the interview • No sms/facebook language- your CV will likely go in the bin • “hey romy. i am interestd in the job. my CV (which is not updated) is attachd” • Get involved- let people know you are there- associations go far in helping you to find a job • Enjoy it- the food industry allows you to add value and • Everybody has to eat so food scientists and techs are needed
