Integrating new employees is a core part of our recruiting and selection process, and experience shows that it takes around three months. The signing of your contract marks the beginning of your career with one of the world's largest corporations, which nevertheless presents itself to you in a very personal way. This means that we will accompany you very intensively from your very first step.
The first steps are most pleasant with a responsible person who introduces you step by step. You will get to know your colleagues and their projects in small rounds of introductions, and you will be provided with working materials. From day one, you will feel the responsibility you are being given.
Part of our comprehensive induction program for new employees is the Welcome Day, which you will attend with other new colleagues. You will be introduced by various experts from different areas and receive helpful input, which will contribute to a successful start in the company.

A buzzword that is often a requirement – but the individual balance depends on the personal circumstances and preferences of each individual. There are as many lifestyles as there are people at thyssenkrupp Steering. We design a working environment that gives our employees the freedom to strike the right balance between their private and professional lives. We offer flexible working time such as flexitime or home office days, as well as part-time employment models, because we know friends and family are a valuable part of our employees' lives.
People don't just have different personalities. They also have different needs and ideas. That's why we offer a hybrid working environment that enables mobile, flexible and home office work without sacrificing personal contact and social interaction.
