The coaching and mentoring structure of SAP is so great, that I have learned a lot during my journey with Global HR Early Talent Program. I’ve had coaching sessions with peers and colleagues who are specialists in different areas and topics in HR and have been mentored by subject-matter experts and HR leaders to explore trends and amazing HR topics. Your profile, expertise, and background doesn’t matter – you just have to be open to learn and grow with the people you work with in the team.
Rotating across different roles, locations and cultures is one of the most impactful and exciting things to broaden your perspective. Thinking beyond silos allows you to learn about all facets of HR and critically reflect on your capabilities.
Being part of the SAP family in the headquarters in Walldorf enables me to develop myself in various HR skills and competencies. Responsibility for assigned projects and learning comes first within the program and supported me in becoming an HR generalist. I would highly recommend the trainee program to ambitious and HR-interested graduates, to start a journey you will never forget.
The program did not only extend my horizon in terms of network and HR experience, it also positioned my skills and strengths strategically so I can be fully maximized in my current and future roles. There is a wealth of opportunity and learning that awaits Early Talents.
What I loved about the program is the opportunity to join three teams and explore different roles within and beyond HR. It was a year that allowed me to better understand what my strengths are and which path I want to follow after the program ends. Although the program's duration is one year, you will receive an unlimited contract from the beginning and will continue your journey at SAP.
