Colgate-Palmolive is a large organization. The organization is so large in fact, that there are multiple different companies underneath the brand name. Some of the Colgate-Palmolive companies in the umbrella under the main brand are Hill's Pet Nutrition, Filorga, and Skin Health Group. Do your research on their website and locate which company the position you are applying for would be working under. It is always a good idea to have knowledge of some of the other brands in the organization as there may be a time you transition to another brand during your employment.

"I know that Colgate-Palmolive was originally a candle-making company, founded in 1806 by Mr. Colgate. I also know there are many brands and product names under this umbrella now. A few I know are Colgate the toothpaste brand, personal care items such as Tom's, Softsoap, and EltaMD, as well as cleaning products like Ajax. I am really impressed with the growth of the organization and recognize so many different brand names."
