BMW Group advertises new PR traineeships

 

Munich. The BMW Group will once again offer two PR
traineeships in its Corporate and Governmental Affairs division
starting on 1 February 2017. The 24-month traineeship covers the full
spectrum of modern press and public relations work with the world’s
leading manufacturer of premium vehicles for skilled and motivated
junior employees. In addition to work placements in different BMW
Group departments, as well as abroad, supplemental editorial
experience at print and online media, radio or TV stations is also included.

 

“BMW Group is celebrating their centenary 2016 with the theme ‘The
Next 100’. Our PR trainees belong to this leitmotif just as well and
that’s why we’re offering them an excellent starting point for
improving professionalism in public relations,” says Maximilian
Schöberl, head of Corporate and Governmental Affairs at the BMW Group,
with reference to the sixth year of the traineeship.

 

The trainees are actively involved in external business and financial
communications, product communications, internal and governmental
communications. In addition to working independently at Group
headquarters, with their own area of responsibility, trainees also
spend a period abroad. Seminars enable them to acquire additional
press and PR qualifications. The trainees are mentored during the
programme by two editors in training.

 

A traineeship at the BMW Group requires a master’s degree or
equivalent, a good general education and initial journalistic
experience with print, TV, radio or online media.

 

Interested applicants should apply to the BMW Group online, including
samples of their journalist work. Suitable candidates will be invited
to an assessment center at Group headquarters on 22 November 2016.

 

The deadline for applications is 21 October 2016. Further information
can be found on the BMW Group career pages

under the job reference number 106600.
