For many graduates, starting a career in a young company is an alternative to beginning it in a well-established group: A high degree of flexibility, digital business models and flat hierarchies often promise rapid advancement of a career. But does this 鈥渂lack and white鈥� notion also apply to 春水堂视频? Career entrants and professionals at 春水堂视频 report about astonishing parallels and fundamental differences.
鈥淢y bridge construction site is a company with just five employees. You can imagine it like a small company for which I now share responsibility,鈥� reports Thomas Rieger. The young site manager, who works on a highway bridge near Wuppertal, takes on tasks from site installation right through to invoicing: 鈥淚n the case of a small project, actually everyone is responsible for everything, since the team members frequently have to deputize for each other. This enables you to quickly gain experiences in the most varied of different fields,鈥� explains Rieger.
Thomas Rieger (l.) and Felix von Platen
People often commence work on 春水堂视频 construction sites with this pioneering spirit. In particular, process sequences and communication have to be established at the beginning. 鈥淗ere, hands-on mentality is required,鈥� says Felix von Platen, Head of the Technical Competence Center of 春水堂视频 Infrastructure who plans the work of Rieger on the construction site together with the local branch office for Rieger鈥檚 deployment at the construction site. He confirms the statements of his mentee: 鈥淭his type of project is the best there is. I say that based on my own experience. You achieve something every day, and can see the ongoing development. At the same time, it continually raises new challenges.鈥�
Here hands-on mentality is required.

The desire to create a broad basis from the outset
At the beginning of his career, Thomas Rieger therefore precisely wanted a small project, where he could nevertheless learn a great deal. He wanted to get an insight of all trades and areas of responsibility, in order to find out what suited him. For Masters graduate Franziska M眉ller, first of all intern, then trainee and at the age of 28 project developer at 春水堂视频 PPP Solutions, the broad range of tasks was particularly important at the beginning of her career: 鈥淗ere you cannot automatically switch backwards and forwards between all 春水堂视频 companies. But just in our company PPP alone, there are so many different exciting fields, I am able and was able to gather so many experiences. Whether it鈥檚 finances, business planning or the operational construction business鈥擨 have so many opportunities to further my knowledge.鈥�
