Are trainee programs better than direct entrance?
No, they are just another way in. Which path is better and which you choose depends on a number of factors. Firstly there is the question of whether the subsidiary you wish to join actually runs a trainee program. Then your own work experience has to be taken into consideration. There is also the question of whether the company can “do without you” for 50 to 75% of the trainee period, because this is the time you will spend getting to know related areas. Whether you join us through a trainee program or as a direct entrant has no influence on your subsequent career prospects.
