International Graduate Programme 2012
RWE's IGP is a unique opportunity for enthusiastic university graduates – for people who think like entrepreneurs, can take on responsibility and are prepared to think outside the box.
The trainee programme offers freedom of choice concerning the individual projects and challenging tasks for the several fields of study. It allows a broad overview of the RWE Group.
You will spend 18 months on a programme whose design you can shape and which will build on your personal strengths, working in and outside of Germany. After that you will be ready to get on with what you do best: using your own energy and enthusiasm to get people and projects moving.
Each year we accept only a handful of the best people for the IGP: university graduates from a wide range of disciplines, who have completed their degree courses quickly and with above-average marks.
Over the course of the programme you will be able to build a clear picture of our business activities and gain deep insights into our corporate culture. Along the way you can look forward to the freedom to use your own creativity and to a programme framework which supports your personal development.
During the 18 month programme you will work on demanding projects in different companies across the RWE Group. Some stages in the programme will take place abroad.
Between each IGP placement you will hold discussions with your personal mentor and with the programme coach, and will take part in seminars which have been specially tailored to meet the needs of your group. In addition, you will have the opportunity to meet the other IGP participants and network with them.

The IGP mentors are all senior executives drawn from the top levels of RWE management. During the first project you will work closely with your mentor. And you will remain in close contact for the rest of the programme.Mentors follow your development and help you establish your own personal network. Thecoach acts as an external adviser in one-on-one coaching sessions and as a facilitator in feedback processes.
The IGP coordinators from RWE Executive Management will take care of organising work programmes and events, and will provide you with advice about all aspects of the programme. The experience you gain from your varied projects, your deep understanding of our Group, and your personal network will all help you to find a suitable and challenging position with us after the programme is over; one that meets your needs and plays to your strengths.
