Erste Group Junior Trainee Programme Yearbook 2010 – 2011

On-the-Job Training
The home department is where the trainees
are working most of the time and it is the
where the trainees will begin their full time
work once the programme has been completed.
In addition to the time spent in the home
department, job rotations give trainees the
opportunity to become familiar with a variety
of other areas. The following areas are the
focus of Job Rotations:
• Retail Branch
• SABINE Factory
• Back Office
• Credit Analysis
• Workout
• Partner Department
• CEE I & II
During the CEE job rotations, trainees will go
on a 3 week, international job rotation to the
same department as their home department,
within another bank in Erste Group. This is
done on a trainee by trainee basis, and the
destination is decided upon by the trainee’s
Department Head.
Trainees profit immensely from their international
experiences, as they get to know
the various banks of Erste Group and begin
to establish a network of professional colleagues
and personal friends who strengthen
their bonds.
“All trainees get to know the
various banks of Erste Group
and thereby establish their
own knowledge networks.
They will not merely profit as
individuals – we firmly believe
that this programme will help
move forward the Group as a
whole.”
“It gives the trainees the
opportunity to work and live in
an international environment
and the combination of job
rotation and learning on the
job will be a tremendously
valuable experience for all of
these lucky few”
