why us, you ask?
"The METRO Potentials program was so interesting for me as a young professional at the time because it offered me everything I was looking for: An employer who shares my passion for good food and team spirit and with whom I can identify. Great customers with whom I could interact and for whom I could work. And a career start where I was able to contribute to the company's success right from the start and get to know the company from different perspectives and meet lots of great colleagues, giving me an understanding of different business areas and a strong network for my further career. In addition, the program was accompanied by many valuable training courses that allowed me to develop professionally and personally. All of this has laid the foundation for my further career at METRO and has given me the opportunity to work in many exciting and different areas and add value to the company. I am very grateful for this. I can therefore only recommend this program to anyone who wants to work in wholesale, develop themselves and their career and help shape METRO in the future."
