During the program, you will have access to various departments and gain insight into long-term development opportunities at TI. The trainee program includes four rotations*:
Rotation 1: Stay in a local sales office (Field Sales Office (FSO)), 5 months:
The FSO rotation is all about learning how to interact with customers and how to solve technical challenges at the customer site. The focus here is on providing technical advice to the customer at system level in order to implement the customer's projects in the best possible way. In addition to other core components, this rotation focuses on analyzing technical alternatives and learning how to select the right technical components while taking design and cost challenges into account. This rotation will preferably take place in your future sales office.
Rotation 2: Stay in the mass market team, 3 months:

Through practical exercises, you will develop hybrid sales techniques and improve digital customer relationships. You will learn to set priorities and act quickly - because “done is better than perfect”. You will also develop your decision-making skills in uncertain situations and learn how to make the best possible use of personal customer contacts. Finally, you will strengthen your independence and gain confidence in direct communication with customers.
Rotation 3: Stay in the Systems Engineering & Marketing (SEM) team, 3 months:
The rotation in SEM allows the FAE-to-be hands-on experience to understand the compatibility of TI's product portfolio and learn how our customers can get system-level solutions for their product designs.

This rotation usually takes place at our EMEA headquarters in Freising, Germany.
