JAS Germany, is delighted to announce the commencement of an initiative that underscores its commitment to fostering international talent and promoting cross-cultural exchange. On July 5th, five trainees, Anna (MHG), Anabel (BER), Bennet (HAJ), Georgette (FRA), and Simona (CGN), from JAS Germany headed to the United States, aiming to gain valuable experience abroad while training in the USA during the next eight weeks.
The journey began at Frankfurt airport, where the trainees, filled with enthusiasm and a spirit of adventure, embarked on their transatlantic voyage. Prior to their departure, the trainees were given the opportunity to visit JAS’ headquarters in Germany. The tour offered valuable insights into the company's operations and culture laying a strong foundation for their upcoming experiences abroad. Additionally, they were given words of encouragement from Managing Director, Volker Werner.
Throughout their eight-week stay in the USA, the trainees will immerse themselves in various facets of international logistics, freight forwarding, and supply chain management. They will have the unique opportunity to interact with industry professionals, collaborate on real-world projects, and gain hands-on experience in diverse operational settings. Moreover, the apprentices will be maintaining a comprehensive diary, documenting their professional experiences and personal reflections, providing an account of their journey.
JAS is dedicated to nurturing the growth and development of its employees, and this initiative exemplifies the organization's commitment to investing in young talent. JAS firmly believes that such immersive international experiences not only enrich the trainees' professional acumen but also foster a broader global perspective, essential in today's interconnected world.
