Career change in HR
Once successful as an officer and world champion, Melanie Günther and Isabel Schneider are now looking for talent for the REWE Group. As career changers, they know from their own experience that a lack of specialised knowledge can be learned - provided you have skills such as a willingness to learn, drive and motivation. A conversation about balls in the air, corporate values and the courage of senior managers to recruit outside the box.
Lateral entry at REWE digital
For the former churchman and current REWE digital colleague Raul Hamburger, his job as a Scrum Master is the most "pastoral" job in the private sector. What his daughter had to do with his career change, why empathy and social skills are also required when developing apps. And what his most valuable asset is for employers.
Lateral entry
A police trainee and a psychiatrist started a new career at PENNY. With this professional experience behind them, little can shake the current store manager and district manager. The conclusion of the two career changers: all professions have to do with people - and you can also manage in shifts. But the customers at PENNY are easier to deal with and the working hours are more regular.
