What is the Early Career Rotational Program?
A three-year formal development program created for engineering, business and information technology graduates. Candidates are often recruited from our summer internship pool and during campus recruiting events. Each year in the program may offer an opportunity for a position in a different city and/or business area. Placements are determined based on business need, employee development profiles and, when possible, employee preference.
Our Rotational Program is a great way to learn about different jobs within the company. Employees in our programs typically rotate to a new business function every twelve months for three years.
