We’ve brought you the inside story on how to land your dream job at Bosch but what’s it really like to work for a company that in 2014 alone generated sales of €49bn?

The Student Engineer has sought out current and former graduate trainees from across the company to reveal what they’ve been doing at the company and what they did to make their CV stand out.
What roles have you been fulfilling so far at Bosch?
Former GSP trainee Sam Gaunt (BEng (Hons) Product Design and Manufacture) told the Student Engineer: “During the programme I was involved in the Rotak lawnmower category and initiated the development of a new rotary blade to reduce noise emissions. Being able to say that I have brought a product to market has definitely been a highlight but also the flexibility of the scheme has made it such a positive experience for me.”
Another former GSP trainee John Allen (BSc (Hons) Computer Aided Product Design) added: “Whilst working in Technical Sales Engineering & Sales Project Managementmy responsibilities included facilitating the connection between the customer and the Bosch Engineering teams to ensure exhaust gas sensors were successfully implemented into new vehicles and engine lines. I worked in line with the Bosch product engineering process to support the development of the projects through key quality milestones.”
