ZLU Consulting and Management

Starting at ZLU after an internship

Susanne Müller, Consultant ZLU

Starting at ZLU after an internship

“I have developed personally and professionally and have become acquainted with various companies from a wide variety of perspectives.”

I first started at ZLU with a three-month internship. That gave me a chance to show that I was able to cope with the challenges of being a consultant, had the necessary basic knowledge of the subject, and that I was willing to develop continually. From the third day, already, I dived into the new world of consultancy. At a German manufacturer of airplane seats I was able to play an active role in the supplier management. My colleagues made sure from the start that I felt part of the team. As I gathered experience about how consultants work, I was gradually given more and more responsibility. At the same time I was living the life of a consultant, and for four days a week I was working on site, confronted with longer working hours and living out of a suitcase. By about halfway through the internship it became clear that both sides wanted to reach a longer-term arrangement. I have now been working at ZLU for more than a year, and I fully support the corporate philosophy of ZLU.
