Imagine being part of an exclusive program that takes your career to the next level. Every year, around 70 employees at our company have the unique opportunity to participate in one of our global talent programs:
Career GPS,
Prime Global Talent Program, and
Master Global Talent Program.
This developmental journey brings together colleagues from a wide range of countries, business divisions, and functions – and it is precisely this diversity of perspectives that makes all the difference. At our company, talent development lies at the very heart of our success. Our programs are designed not only to expand your skill set but also to equip you with the tools you need to drive your professional and personal development with autonomy.
Open mentoring
With our Open Mentoring Program, you can systematically hone your entrepreneurial mindset. Experienced mentors share their expertise and support you on your journey, while you – as a mentee – gain valuable insights and inspiration. At the same time, we foster cross-hierarchical exchange to bolster your personal and professional development. This creates enriching experiences for everyone involved.
Special mentoring program for women
This program empowers women within our organization, opens up new perspectives, and provides guidance for both personal and professional advancement. Simultaneously, it helps build confidence in one’s own capabilities. Furthermore, it promotes an open culture of exchange and knowledge transfer, while supporting the establishment of strong networks throughout the company.
Feedback culture and exchange
Communication and continuous exchange are of paramount importance to us. Constructive feedback is the key to creating space for improvement. Accordingly, we use various formats to strengthen our feedback culture and foster open dialogue. These include, for instance, “360-degree” feedback for executives, regular feedback sessions between employees and managers, and our annual global employee survey.
Attractive learning formats
We support your continuous growth, through a diverse and regular range of training sessions, workshops and professional development programs . Our offerings span from in-person and virtual training to flexible e-learning formats that enable you to learn anytime, anywhere.
These include, among others:
LinkedIn Learning: over 20,000 video courses designed to enhance your professional, technical, and creative skills – complete with personalized recommendations.
eCornell: online courses and certifications covering relevant topics within the semiconductor and electronics industries.
Semitracks: practical training and professional development programs tailored specifically for the semiconductor and electronics sector.

Our career paths
Career paths are a central component of our talent management strategy, designed to attract talent, foster targeted development, and ensure long-term retention. They provide transparency and guidance for our employees while simultaneously promoting the systematic development of competencies throughout the company.
Our career path model integrates proven approaches, is grounded in industry benchmarks, and comprises five clearly defined career paths featuring tailored development opportunities. All paths are of equal standing and fully permeable – allowing for a transition at any time; for instance, from Engineering to Leadership, from Leadership to Project Management, or from a Specialist Role to Sales.
Career path 1

Career path 2
Project Management

Career path 4
Specialist
The Specialist Career Path applies to our employees from support and corporate functions across different job families (e.g. Marketing, Legal, Finance, HR).

This career path is characterized by several specific features:
