MOL Group was announced as the winner of the 2014 ERE Recruiting Excellence Award in the category of Best College Recruiting Program for Freshhh and Growww on March 19th.

In the first round of the Award-Winning Freshhh competition, teams compete in a virtual scenario through the internet by solving industrial and strategic tasks developed by MOL Group. The best 40 teams of the first round qualify for the Strategy Simulation task where they face gas station simulation and have to make proper decisions based on careful market analysis.

The final is a live event, held in Budapest each year with the top 5 teams competing for the main prize. The three finalists win 20,000 Euros (9,000 Euros for the winning team, 7,000 Euros for the second and 4,000 Euros for the third one) and the opportunity to join the graduate recruitment and development program of MOL Group.

“I registered for the first competition in 2007 with my team. We enjoyed Freshhh from the very beginning, and after an amazing, tiring day we came to the fourth place at the finals,” remembers Péter Értelmes, now Investment Procurement Manager at MOL Group. “Afterwards, I joined MOL Group’s Growww program in 2008. It was a great opportunity for me to learn about the everyday life of a multinational company, and gain experience in a culturally diverse environment.”
