About the Graduate Programme

We offer three type of exciting entry opportunities for ambitious graduates and outstanding talents. Our vision is to grow a high potential talent pool for exciting career opportunities at KWS through three programs; Growing into the Future and Growing with Science, Growing with Innovation. After an initial 4 week onboarding session where graduates get to meet KWS leaders, do field-trips and receive soft-skill training, they join dynamic teams to tackle 4 exciting and diverse projects throughout the 2 years.

During projects, graduates hone their strategic thinking and influencing skills and have the sole responsibility of planning, overseeing and executing a challenging project chosen by themselves from a project pool. Third rotation is an all-expense paid international assignment and graduates get to pick their country they visit.

Graduates are part of an international graduate community and they have a chance to do trainings and socialize with the former and current graduates on a periodic basis. The graduates are supported with a strong relational network; Project Coach, Project Sponsor, Buddy and a Mentor. The finalized candidate group is offered a relocation package and receive a 3000 EUR worth training budget in addition to many other perks and packages.
