Company Visit 2019 was held on Monday, April 15 to Tuesday, April 16, 2019, in Jakarta. The companies visited on the first day were PT Nestlé and EY Indonesia, followed by the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia and PT Gojek Indonesia on the second day. The participants came from several cohorts: 2016, 2017, and 2018.
The event began with all participants gathering at UNPAR at 04:30 AM, before boarding the bus provided. The trip went smoothly, and by 09:00 AM, the group had arrived at the first destination, PT Nestlé. The visit included two sessions: a company presentation and a factory tour. During the visit, participants learned about the history of Nestlé and observed the entire production process of various Nestlé products, from start to finish. The session ended precisely at 12:00 PM, followed by the presentation of a plaque from UNPAR to PT Nestlé.
Lunch was served on the bus as the group traveled to their second destination, EY Indonesia, where they arrived at 3:00 PM. There, participants attended a presentation and sharing session that lasted until 5:30 PM, concluding with the presentation of a plaque and group photo.
Due to Jakarta’s odd-even traffic regulation, the group was unable to head directly to the hotel after the visit. Instead, as scheduled, participants were given free time at Pacific Place Mall, located just across from the EY office, until 7:30 PM. They then returned to the bus and headed to the hotel for check-in and rest.
Day 2: Government and Tech Sector Exploration
On the second day, the organizing committee started their day at 5:30 AM, preparing and distributing breakfast to each participant’s room. By 8:00 AM, all participants had gathered in the hotel lobby, ready for check-out and departure.
The first destination on day two was the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, which was relatively close to the hotel and took only about 20 minutes to reach. The group arrived at 8:20 AM and proceeded to the building’s auditorium for a 2.5-hour presentation. The session concluded with a plaque presentation, a group photo, and lunch.
At 12:20 PM, the journey continued to the next destination, PT Gojek, where the group arrived at 12:45 PM. However, they could only enter the office at 1:30 PM, so participants were given 45 minutes of free time at Pasar Raya Mall.
Once inside Gojek, they attended a presentation on Social Media Marketing, followed by a group photo, plaque handover, and an office tour. All sessions ended by 5:00 PM, and the group boarded the bus for their return journey. Some participants stayed in Jakarta, while others headed back to Bandung.
Due to traffic congestion, the bus finally arrived back at UNPAR at 10:15 PM (WIB).
