Molly the Intern Starts Her Summer Job at Tridel


Hi! My name is Molly and I will be working at Tridel as an intern in the marketing department for the summer. Part of my job will be keeping you up to date with all the exciting Tridel events and activities that will be happening over the summer such as new suite releases, ground breaking ceremonies and special events. I think it’s going to be an amazing opportunity for me to learn and share my insights with you so stay tuned for my weekly update.

Week 1
I just completed my first week at Tridel. I started my summer job by participating in an orientation seminar known as Tridel 101, the training that all new Tridel employees begin when they join the company. In this seminar, I learned about all aspects of Tridel – it's history, how it operates, its core values, and everything that makes it unique in the building industry. I was amazed at the size and number of departments within Tridel that works as a team to come together to create and build stylish condominium communities.


After finishing our seminar at head office, we went out to tour two of Tridel's condo sites –the first being the West Village Presentation Centre in Etobicoke, where Tridel is launching Tower 2 (May 29th!) on the heels of the success of Tower 1 (over 70% sold!).We toured the Presentation Centre, met the staff, checked out the scale model and interactive touch screen display and toured the model suite.


The second stop was Etobicoke's ‘Parc Nuvo’ community right by the Kipling subway station. It is the fifth and final condo building being constructed within the beautiful Essex community. During my visit it was a thrill to take a tour of a few of their model suites, especially the Signature Collection Suite S3 in Nuvo 2 which is 29 floors up with an amazing view of the city! The tour was led by one of Tridel’s Customer Care reps and she pointed out all of the different personal choice options that home buyers are able to pick out such as choice of paint, flooring, countertops, cabinetry, electrical/telephone/cable placements, and more. These options make a condo truly feel like a home. The Customer Care rep also demonstrated the home orientation process where customers are introduced to the community and introduced to the suite features, community amenities, and all the aspects of their new Tridel condominium lifestyle..

I was amazed at the detail and level of care given to each homeowner! It's no wonder why Tridel has received so many awards and recognition in customer satisfaction. See Tridel's impressive awards page.


I was also impressed with Tridel’s commitment to building ‘green’– developing condos that are environmentally responsible, energy efficient and have healthy indoor living spaces. I learned that all of Tridel's future condo towers will be LEED buildings (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and registered and certified by the Canada Green Building Council.

This was my first experience touring a Tridel sales centre and model suite. I learned so much and look forward to being able to share my Tridel experiences online with you throughout the summer.

Hope you enjoy following my blog!

Molly.
