Your journey: 2 years. 3 rotations.
- Rotation 1: Your HR trainee manager will help you choose your first rotation based on your personal interests and learning goals. This rotation lasts approximately six months. For example, you could take on a role where you focus on improving the operational excellence of teams that deal with customer enquiries and requests, engaging in dynamic projects focused on strengthening innovation, workflow enhancement, and operational resilience.
- Rotation 2: With these new experiences and contacts, you are in charge of arranging your second rotation. Now it comes down to addressing your network and taking the initiative. We encourage it to gain international experience during this six-month period, which is not only fun but is also good for your personal and professional development.
- Rotation 3: After two rotations, you now have a better understanding of which direction you would like to go and are ready to choose your third rotation. Are you broadening your knowledge within your track, or would you like to explore another business area altogether? During your third rotation you’ll start networking for your fixed position. This permanent role lets you go deeper into the field right from the start. You expand your knowledge and hone your skills, while working on your further development as e.g. a Junior Consultant, Blackbelt or Lead of a Customer Loyalty Team.
