Job Satisfaction at Cochlear

My role is to support various departments and teams with the work they are currently working on and progress new ideas that the team has raised in supporting. My day-to-day responsibilities are to work on the projects that I've been assigned and seek out opportunities within the company to further develop my understanding of the medical devices industry and the company itself.

Helping to write and conduct test methods to verify products. Helping to design and implement new features on our products.

For each graduate rotation I feel like there is a healthy balance between having my needs met and providing benefit to the team.

I was responsible for coordinating a project to gather regional market access business intelligence into a central database. This was my first opportunity to lead a project and required frequent communication with market access leaders across North America, APAC and Latin America. My other main project was to write a value dossier to persuasively capture the clinical evidence for Cochlear Implants for a target population in Europe. If approved, this document would enable thousands of people to get cheaper access to their best treatment option. Finally, I conducted an analysis of survey data to understand how field staff interact with clinicians, visualised the data, and presented the results to the global clinical marketing team.

I am currently rotating through different teams in the Graduate Program so have a board understanding of the technology, manufacturing and recipient experience. My day-to-day role is evolving, challenging and interesting.

Interview scheduling, stakeholder management, job advertising, reference checks, onboarding tasks, supporting recruiters, etc

Currently, rotating throughout the company. However, typically involves working on an R&D project either improving aspects, prototyping new feature etc.

Varied - rotating through different departments as a grad

Day-to-day responsibilities as an intern are administrative and provide a good foundation for knowledge into People & Culture. These include interview scheduling, reference checks, etc.

Given projects and work packages to lead with support of the team. Variety of work based on what I want to learn.
