Johnson & Johnson has an incredible company culture. On the very first day of my Co-Op, it was Martin Luther King Day, and many of my team members spent the day volunteering. Beyond valuing service, J&J leaders make sure that interns and co-ops receive the training and mentorship that they need. ...

Johnson & Johnson is an amazing place to kickstart a career. As a JnJ co-op you will be doing valuable work to contribute to the company. You will learn more than you expect and you will come out of the co-op/internship with real work experiences. This is not a place where you will be “getting co...

The training program for a Transportation/Logistics Co-op is very in depth. You will learn about the entire supply chain as well as the “mini supply chain” that exists within transportation. You will learn how what you’re doing affects the company and different stakeholders you work with. The tra...

J&J has one of the best mentorship programs I have ever experienced. As an intern I was immediately mentored by not only my direct managers but also each one of my team members. Everyone is so helpful and knowledgeable; they are always willing to teach you and make sure you understand the work ...

A solid rundown of what you should know is the type of role/department that you are looking at and interviewing for, and how you feel you can advertise the work that you do in that position, to benefit the whole of the company (i.e. how can IT help Pharma, or Medical Devices?, etc.) and positivel...

One of the most important aspects I would say in being successful at Johnson & Johnson is the ability to appreciate diversity and be a team player.

In my experience, some of my communications projects included designing and distributing a Motr...

Definitely highlight your ability to multitask and meet deadlines. The role was very time-sensitive and it was important to keep a quick pace while balancing a few responsibilities at the same time.

Johnson & Johnson is a very social and friendly company. It’s kind of mind boggling how helpful and friendly employees at J&J are. My day usually started at the coffee machine lol. Then, I would head to my desk, and check emails while discussing today’s tasks and assignments with my fellow co-op ...

Mid-way of your co-op or internship, be straightforward, and tel...

Depends from co-op to co-op. Usually, you are given a broad project to work on over the course of the co-op (along with some usual day to day tasks) that you present out at the end of the program.
