Trainee Program Overview

The trainee program in Communications starts in your home team, where you spend most of your time. During the course of the first year, you complete a rotation across several stations to gain broader insights. The rotation shown below is only an example - schedule, duration and assignments are adapted individually according to upcoming project requirements and your needs. During the entire trainee program, you will be supported by a personal mentor, receive both group and individual trainings, and take part in internal and external exchange formats.

The trainee program offers me the opportunity to get to know the diverse areas of corporate communications at Bayer. As part of an international team, I can contribute my ideas, learn from experienced colleagues, and support projects with a global impact.

For me, the traineeship was about continuously growing through new challenges and developing both professionally and personally. The Dynamic Shared Ownership Model in particular made it possible to actively shape my own development and contribute to a wide range of projects-something I truly valued during the program. A definite highlight? The international internship!

My traineeship at Bayer was a defining step in my growth - real project ownership, international exposure, and the trust to shape my own learning path. It’s a program that truly prepares you to lead.

Being a Communications trainee at Bayer means learning to navigate an unmatched range of complex, high-impact topics – and once you can communicate across all of that, you just feel ready for whatever comes next.

In my opinion, the rotation within the traineeship program is a particular advantage. Not only does it offer the opportunity to work in other cities, but also the chance to experience the diversity of communication in the three divisions of Bayer, get to know the teams, and build your own network that you can fall back on at any time.

I truly value the opportunities the trainee gives: hands-on ownership of projects, quick visibility of outcomes, and collaboration in cross-functional international teams. I’m trusted with real responsibility from day one - that trust makes the traineeship highly motivating and the learning curve steep and practical.

The program is international in its DNA with teams working across countries and time zones - offering the opportunity to learn and achieve beyond one's horizon.
