Testimonials from apprentices

I am currently in the second year of my Logistics apprenticeship within SICPA’s Supply Chain department. My responsibilities include receiving and shipping goods, managing inventory, and labeling items. What I enjoy most about my apprenticeship is the variety of tasks and the opportunity to discover different departments. I am also fortunate to work in a team with a very friendly, family-like atmosphere.

I am currently completing a long-term internship at SICPA while pursuing my studies in International Business Management at HEG. Within the Finance department, I support the Business Finance and Controlling teams in a variety of operational activities. This experience allows me to apply the concepts I learn in class, particularly in accounting and finance. I especially appreciate the opportunity to explore different areas of finance, the company's international environment, and the support and kindness of my team. This experience is also helping me gain a better understanding of the professional world and develop valuable skills for my future career.

I've been working at SICPA for a little over three years as a Mediamatics apprentice in the marketing department. I mainly handle creating visual content, including product photography, videos, and brochures. It's actually this variety that I enjoy most about my apprenticeship. I can go from photography to designing a brochure and then work on tasks that are more marketing-focused. The atmosphere is pleasant and supportive, which makes learning even more enjoyable on a daily basis. My apprenticeship has taught me a lot and is a real advantage for my future career.

What I appreciate most about my apprenticeship at SICPA is the variety of my tasks. During our three-year apprenticeship, we move to a different department each year, which allows us to discover different aspects of the profession. The whole team has made me feel very welcome, and this experience is a real asset for my professional future.

What's special about this apprenticeship is that each year we change departments. For me, the first year was in the Accounts department at the head office in Prilly, the second is in Chavornay, the main production site for safety inks, and the final year will be spent in the Marketing department.
