Start & Onboarding
Questions & Answers About Starting Your Job
Within the first six months at Porsche Consulting, there is a three-week onboarding program, which we call the Warm-Up. The Warm-Up consists of a set of coordinated training units and presentations intended to give new joiners the best possible preparation for a great start at Porsche Consulting. Moreover, every new employee is supported during the first six months by an experienced mentor in order to facilitate social and cultural integration. Then the employee starts on their first project, assisted by experienced consultants, in order to put the knowledge gained in the Warm-Up into practice.
At the start of each quarter, there is a three-week onboarding program called the Warm-Up.

And to give a taste of the Porsche brand, the Warm-Up culminates in a joint driving event. Here, employees have the chance to demonstrate their driving skills.
