Development opportunities

You receive valuable support from our personnel development department during all phases of your career development so that you are equipped with the correct technical, methodical and personal skills for your role at all times.

A Good Start: Introductory Training

With an individual introductory training plan, you receive all the information and knowledge you need for your work at Schaeffler Group is supplementary to the skills you already have. You need a comprehensive overview of our company so that your introductory phase at work runs smoothly. This is why we organize introductory training sessions for new employees during which they can take a look beyond their own department and familiarize themselves with the company organizational structure. A mentor who assists you in getting to know your working environment ensures you are integrated in your team from the very beginning. As an alternative to direct entry at the company, we also offer Trainee Programs for graduates.

Personal development and career planning: Talent Management

Qualified and motivated employees are the fundamental pillar of our long-term business success. We therefore want to offer you a job with prospects. Talent management involves offering employees specific opportunities for development as well as identifying people with high potential. We want to use the opportunities of a globally-active company and consider our employees early on for (international) positions within the company.

In order to ensure this, we implemented talent management at Schaeffler as a year-round and continuous task. The basis is the employee development dialog in which employee and manager discuss conduct, potential, technical skills, and development opportunities. An individual development plan provides support with defining and planning the employee’s technical as well as personal development. In subsequent conversations across departments, the results of the employee development dialog form the basis for the identification of high-potential employees or for nominations for development programs. Thanks to this systematic process, you have the chance to specifically develop every day at Schaeffler and thus shape mobility together with us.
