International experience acquired working for the Bosch group outside the respective home country is an important part of the development of our skilled professionals and management personnel as well as future managers. We also expect our national managers who are to assume senior management positions at our foreign subsidiaries and affiliates to work for several years in a business unit of the Bosch Group in Germany. In the case of comparable qualifications, we give preference to associates with international experience while filling management positions.

The international exchange of associates within the Bosch Group applies worldwide and to all functional areas. The primary purpose is:

• To develop skilled professionals and management personnel with international experience
• To transfer and exchange knowledge
• To promote wordwide understanding and cooperation within the Bosch Group
• To fill positions at locations where qualified local associates are not yet available.
