I could easily recall how excited and thrilled I was back\nthen. The introduction month in Gothenburg was sensational. Not only did I get\nthe chance to meet other graduates from all over the world, but the nice overview\nof the whole corporation. That month was so well organized that I also got the\nchance to meet those cool guys from wave 2, from whom I got multiple valuable\nadvice on rotations. The diversity of our wave impressed me most. We come from\ndifferent parts of the world with different backgrounds no matter in culture or\nin major. It is always interesting to learn different things or see things\ndifferently by collaborating with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first 5-month rotation started right\nafter the introduction month was over. I am currently working in my home unit\nas part of Product Line Management team. Soon after I came back, I was assigned\nto be the project manager to take charge of the development of a new ball\nbearing by my manager. To be honest, the pressure was a little bit overwhelming\nand the project was also challenging to me in the very beginning. However, one\nof the best things of this program was the connection with other graduates and my\nown mentor. We could share our concerns, discuss our problems with each other.\nAlso, my mentor gave lots of ideas on how to run the projects. Now, the project\nis ongoing well. The factory is producing the samples. Once they are done, we\nwill deliver them to our customer for the validation test. My first rotation is\ncoming to an end. Looking back at the past five months, I tried to make small\nprogress every day, even though sometimes they just turned out to be baby steps.\nAnd now I have got a better understanding of both product knowledge and project\nprocess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.traineebloggen.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/traineebloggen\/2019\/02\/Instagram-Morris-1024x1024-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.traineebloggen.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/traineebloggen\/2019\/02\/Instagram-Morris-1024x1024-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.traineebloggen.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/traineebloggen\/2019\/02\/Instagram-Morris-1024x1024-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.traineebloggen.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/traineebloggen\/2019\/02\/Instagram-Morris-1024x1024-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.traineebloggen.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/traineebloggen\/2019\/02\/Instagram-Morris-1024x1024-1-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><br>Head office of SKF China, where I work everyday for my first rotation. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next month, all of us will gather together\nin Gothenburg again. I\u2019m looking forward to seeing them. My next rotation will\nbe in France. Although the first rotation in my home city was enjoyable, I am\nnow super excited to come out of my comfort zone and explore more. It\u2019s going\nto be another challenge. And it\u2019s the challenge that let you push forward.\nThus, it\u2019s a process of growing that never ceases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s up, TraineeBloggen?
