Talent Hack Lactalis Puleva-UGR
Have you ever wondered how a professional career is really built? Beyond a résumé, talent development is a dynamic journey shaped by decisions, hands-on learning, and the ability to adapt.
TALENT HACK is an educational podcast designed to support you throughout every stage of your professional development. Moving beyond traditional corporate messaging, it brings you honest conversations with professionals from Lactalis Puleva. Through their personal experiences, you’ll discover how to accelerate your skills, gain valuable insights, and understand that talent is not simply a starting point—it is a journey built step by step.
Programme objectives
With this initiative, we aim to make a real impact on your professional outlook through three key pillars:
- Skills Acceleration: Foster the development of essential transferable skills (soft skills), such as adaptability, resilience, and decision-making in complex environments.
- Learning Through Role Models: Provide authentic and relatable role models. Hearing about the challenges, mistakes, and successes of professionals who have already walked the path is one of the most powerful ways to inspire your own career journey.
- Strategic Perspective: Help you understand how career growth works within a large corporation, moving beyond theoretical models to focus on what organizations truly value in today’s professional landscape.
Who is it for?
This programme is designed for curious, proactive university students who want to go beyond academic achievement. Whether you’re studying business administration, marketing, or any other discipline, TALENT HACK is for you if you’re looking to complement your education with practical, realistic, and actionable insights.
It’s the perfect space for students preparing to take on their first professional challenge, as well as for those already planning how to stand out in future job applications.
Programme phases
The programme is divided into three key phases that will shape your professional growth:
Episode 1 | START: Activate your starting point.
What does it really mean to have talent when you have little or no professional experience? In this first episode, we explore the transition from university to the workplace. Ana Alejandra Jaén (Talent Manager) shares insights on how to navigate uncertainty and explains how hands-on initiatives—such as hackathons and business challenges—can help you demonstrate your true potential.
Key takeaway: Don’t wait until you feel 100% ready. A positive attitude, initiative, and the confidence to embrace mistakes as part of the learning process are the key ingredients for unlocking your first great career opportunity.
Episode 2 | GROW: Stories that inspire the future
Once you’ve taken the first step, how do you turn learning into experience? This episode focuses on professional growth within an organization, exploring development through hands-on experience, new challenges, and the 70-20-10 learning model. Together with Pedro Marín (HR Director), we’ll discuss the importance of stepping outside your comfort zone and embracing new responsibilities.
Key takeaway: Growth is never a solo journey. Having strong mentors and surrounding yourself with people who encourage your development can make all the difference when it comes to making strategic career decisions.
Episode 3 | GO BEYOND: Experiences that cross borders
Talent reaches its full potential when it is exposed to complex environments that challenge it to grow. In this final stage, we explore professional expansion through international mobility, global projects, and positions of greater responsibility. Guided by Manuel Folgoso (HR Manager, Industrial Operations), you’ll discover how to navigate uncertainty and adapt to different cultures in today’s VUCA and BANI environments.
Key takeaway: Embracing change and stepping outside the comfort of the familiar are essential to broadening your perspective and transforming the way you understand today’s global job market.
OUR PURPOSE: FROM THE CLASSROOM TO THE BUSINESS WORLD
Entering the world of work is often filled with uncertainty. TALENT HACK was created to bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice.

Through the voices and experiences of professionals at Lactalis Puleva, we aim to build a bridge that helps you approach your transition into the workplace with greater confidence, perspective, and ambition.
