KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 25): Heineken Malaysia Bhd is now receiving applications for the Heineken Asia Pacific Graduate Programme (APGP) for the 2019 batch.

In a statement yesterday, Heineken said successful recruits will get a chance to experience assignments in the Asia Pacific region while being mentored by senior leaders of the business.

It urged Malaysian graduates to apply before the Nov 9, 2018 deadline.

Heineken said the APGP is a 24-month regional programme that offers invaluable experience and exposure to nurture fresh graduates to grow and enhance the capabilities of the trainees.

It said the APGP involves a comprehensive induction that is divided into four 6-month assignments with opportunities to be exposed to various areas within a selected function.

Heineken Malaysia corporate affairs and legal director Renuka Indrarajah said the APGP exposes graduate talents to the Heineken business across the Asia Pacific region.

She said amongst the four assignments, there will be two rotations where the trainee is posted to other Heineken Operating Companies (OpCos).

“Our focus for the APGP goes beyond being just a training programme, we want our trainees to experience diverse cultures in different markets, with a focus on learning from the best to become a future leader,” she said.

Renuka said application for the Heineken APGP 2019 opens from Oct 24 to Nov 9, 2018 and interested candidates can apply at www.heineken-apgp.com/Malaysia.
