Applications for the Summership program have begun!

The program is aimed at students in their 3rd and 4th year of studies and lasts 2 weeks from May 22 to June 2, with daily attendance between 10:00-12:00. For the first year, the program will have a hybrid nature as visits and activities will take place on both days at the Coca Cola – 3E facilities and the remaining meetings will be held online. More specifically, throughout the program, the following will be held:

• Interactive career workshops & business case studies
• Targeted training by experienced professionals from the team
• Round tables for career stories by selected executives Fun Activities

Finally, as part of the Summership, participants will have the opportunity to discover internship positions in the company.

The program is related, but not inextricably linked to the internship, therefore applications for internships can be accepted before the start of the program and at the same time students have the opportunity to take part in the Summership.
As the participation places are limited, the final participants will be selected through an evaluation process as in the case of the internship, through an on-demand interview by following the link below.
