Hear from the STAR students
and managers
One of my favorite aspects of the STAR program, is the ability to rotate to different departments and work with various technologies. In my first rotation, I was able to build my knowledge of databases in the HANA team. Now in my second rotation, I am gaining development experience in our Enterprise Mobility team, making high-quality iOS apps for our enterprise.

Within the STAR program, I have been able to garner many skills and participate in various roles including technical, business, and leadership roles. I was even given the opportunity to do a rotation in Silicon Valley and work with some of the newest technologies in the industry. The connections and networks I have made and continue to make in the program are invaluable. SAP provides me with a nurturing environment where I can learn and grow in many ways. This is truly an experience of a lifetime.
