Discover the 3 reasons behind our success in the HappyIndex® Trainees ranking:

1 - Practical and enriching learning for a smoother professional transition

Every intern and apprentice finds more than just a first professional experience: we aim to facilitate young talents' transition from academia to the professional world by entrusting them with real and meaningful tasks. In a stimulating and supportive environment, they develop both technical and personal skills, with the help of their mentors. As Pierre Louis Frund, Innovation Engineer Apprentice in Obernai, shares, this can often be just the beginning of a great journey:

"At Hager Group, during my first internship, I developed my skills with the support of an experienced manager and successfully carried out various tasks independently. My main mission was to identify innovative and sustainable materials, and thanks to this successful internship, I secured an apprenticeship in the Innovation department, transitioning from a more technical role to a business-oriented one."

2 - Personalized onboarding

From their first day to the end of their mission, every intern and apprentice benefits from personalized support by an experienced mentor and a dedicated HR team.

"We believe that successful onboarding is essential to strengthen engagement and foster adherence to our group’s culture and ambitions. An immersive day complements the integration process, enabling young talents to embrace the company's values and lay the foundation for their long-term success," explains Fiona Petit, Talent Acquisition Specialist Early Careers and former apprentice.

3 - A dynamic and supportive community

Joining Hager Group through an internship or apprenticeship also means becoming part of an active and independent community: our TAI Community. Regular events, such as networking sessions, knowledge-sharing workshops, and after-work gatherings, are organized by and for young talents.

"We are committed to offering a high-value experience for the personal and professional development of our young talents. This community allows everyone to grow and thrive within a supportive group while creating lasting connections between young talents and the teams," adds Mathilde Paillart, Talent Acquisition Specialist Early Careers.
