TRAINEES

"Joining CHG to kickstart my career was definitely the right decision for me to understand business as a whole as my first six months at CHG has provided me with an abundance of learning opportunities. Being part of the finance department at CHG has furthered my development in various financial instruments, analysis techniques, and industry-specific knowledge. I’ve had the chance to collaborate with a diverse and skilled team, this not only has enhanced my technical skills but has also provided me with valuable insights and the ability to learn roles even outside of finance. CHG has excelled my career in all aspects by allowing me to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world financial scenarios. Having been surrounded by an experienced team constantly has given me the opportunities needed to learn my role in finance and what I pursue to achieve in the future. CHG was the right choice and has reassured me that finance is the career I want to pursue."

DREAM ACHIEVED!

"When I was looking to start my professional career, I always had a clear goal in my mind and heart, work in SALES. It has been quite a challenge due to the complexity and the target customers we are searching for. 
One of the first reasons I decided to enter the trainee program at CHG-MERIDIAN was, and still is, be part of the financial industry, also having the possibility to work in a business model that has a sustainable growth in time and having technology and digitalization without leaving behind our planet. My main challenge was knowing the business basics and operative processes that will give me a solid foundation to build my portfolio. All of this was put into practice during my time on the program. 
The main highlights that I have experienced are working with colleagues all around the world. Also having the opportunity to build a network in a different environment rather than the typical workplace, like Cancún."

"CHG hat mir mit dem Traineeprogramm das Gesamtpaket geboten, welches ich nach meinem Studium gesucht habe und war für mich der optimale Einstieg in meine berufliche Vertriebskarriere. Es ermöglichte mir einen umfassenden Einblick in die Vertriebsprozesse und internen Strukturen des Unternehmens und verbindet gezielt die Vermittlung theoretischer Kenntnisse mit deren praktischer Umsetzung. Die enge Betreuung und individuelle Förderung durch das Team und meine Mentoren haben mir geholfen, meine Vertriebskompetenzen gezielt weiterzuentwickeln und frühzeitig Verantwortung in Projekten zu übernehmen. 
Herausfordernd war für mich vor allem die Komplexität der Geschäftsbereiche und angebotenen Lösungen. Jedoch nutzte ich dies als Motivation, mich kontinuierlich mit den Thematiken auseinanderzusetzen und so mein Wissen stetig zu erweitern. 
Ein besonderes Highlight war die Zeit in unserer Niederlassung in Egham, UK, wo ich wertvolle Einblicke in deren strategische Ausrichtung gewinnen und gleichzeitig meine interkulturellen Kompetenzen stärken konnte. Diese Erfahrung hat mein Verständnis für die globalen Anforderungen im Vertrieb maßgeblich gesteigert und mich auf zukünftige internationale Herausforderungen vorbereitet."

"After graduating from university last summer my goal was always to work in the finance industry, and CHG-MERIDIAN seemed like a really forward-thinking company in an industry that at times doesn’t always seem to be this way, while still being result driven. This can be seen in various aspects, such as company culture, appreciating work-life balance, and its future plans. The Trainee@CHG program was also perfect for me as it allows me to rotate departments, which gives me real world experience to help inform what area I would like to work in as a career. My highlights so far have included opportunities to travel, learning the different roles and what each entails, and getting to know the people I work alongside, both in the UK and from around Europe. Overall, CHG, its values, and what it offers to me as a young person just starting out in this industry aligned perfectly with the direction I want my career to go in."
