Your Tasks
For talents with an entrepreneurial mindset and the courage to shape the future, the "Start up!" trainee program offers 18 months of space to learn and develop. We provide you with a wide range of insights into our organization and the opportunity to step out of your comfort zone and explore new topics to reach your full potential.
Additionally, We Offer You:
- Take Charge of Your Career! You will have five project assignments: the first within T-Systems. After that, you can choose your subsequent projects individually – across the entire company.
- Step Out of Your Comfort Zone! After your first assignment, you decide which topics you want to dive deeper into. During the program, we want you to step out of your comfort zone and explore new fields within Deutsche Telekom. We will support you with a broad network.
- Expand Your Network and Experience the Trainee Community! Fridays are reserved for the “Magenta Friday". All trainees come together to work on strategic, innovative growth topics outside of their own project assignments. Trainees work in different teams where they organize events, foster their development, or contribute to social initiatives.
- Go International! A leading digital telecommunications company without international experience? Never! One of your (three-month) assignments will be abroad. You decide which country and city.
- Understand Our Business! Take the opportunity to get to know Deutsche Telekom’s operational business. During our "Service Days," you can gain direct insights into how Deutsche Telekom works with customers. Choose your "Service Days", such as a day in customer service, a visit to a T-Shop, or a stop at one of our service centers. You’ll gain direct insights into how we turn customers into fans every day.
- Choose Your Start Date! Every quarter, there is the opportunity to start the program. Simply discuss with your contact person which date suits you best.
