Prysmian Group continues to run Make It and Sell It recruiting programmes for engineers

Prysmian Group has recruited 120 talented people from around the world through the “Build The Future”, “Make It” and “Sell It” selection and training schemes.

Prysmian Group is continuing to run its Make It and Sell It recruiting programmes — now in their fourth and third year, respectively — to select and train talent from around the world.

Make It is the programme targeted at process, maintenance, planning and quality engineers, as well as other specialist technical staff who have obtained a Bachelor’s degree in engineering, or equivalent, and acquired between three and seven years’ experience in similar positions, in addition to showing leadership qualities and a passion for innovation.

Sell It, on the other hand, is a three-year scheme designed to recruit sales professionals who have obtained a degree in economics, engineering or chemistry or have other technical backgrounds, and gained 3-5 years’ work experience in sales within the industrial manufacturing or consumer goods sectors.

The four-year programme includes, amongst other things, a one-week induction in the Group’s new Milan headquarters, a three-week training in the Global Manufacturing Academy in Mudanya (Turkey) and attendance at the Prysmian Group Academy, the Group’s corporate university created in 2012 in collaboration with the SDA Bocconi School of Management.

The training programme takes place within the Prysmian Global Sales Academy — which works closely with the world’s most renowned business schools — to then continue in the Group’s key plants through a structured and constantly monitored induction programme that, since its very beginning, allows the attendees to meet all key customers in each business area. Applicants to both programmes must be fluent in English (written and spoken), even if they will be based in their own countries.

Prysmian Group is promoting its new programmes with a 100% digital international communication campaign that expresses the brand’s new values (drive, trust and simplicity), which have been identified through a shared process that involved all Group employees following the acquisition of General Cable.

Applications for the two programmes are open and candidates can apply through the www.prysmiangroup.com website (www.prysmiangroup.com/careers section).
