The program starts with orientation, assisting in settling into the corporate culture and getting to know the new working environment, and later students are placed in professional areas, participating in specific, project-like tasks.

Beside further details, the website also includes the CV application, offering help to fresh graduates to enter individual, tailor made and flawless CVs, largely increasing their chances for the success.
