Internship at GEORG
Last week, Annika Becker had the opportunity to get to know the processes at GEORG better during her three-week internship and to provide on-site support at one of our most important HR trainee fairs.
But hear for yourself what she has to say about her time.
My name is Annika Becker and I completed my 3-week internship at Georg.
In the first two weeks, I was able to immerse myself in the world of technical product design. I learned how to create 3D drawings with individual components and assemblies and how to develop plans. I was given a tour of the company in order to better understand the interrelationships between the individual departments and production, which enabled me to better organize my tasks.
In the third and final week, I was able to get to know the HR department and experience the job of an industrial clerk. In addition to everyday administrative office tasks (filing documents in the document management system, distributing mail, etc.)
One of the highlights of my internship was definitely the visit to the training fair in Siegen, where we took part as exhibitors.It was interesting to be able to take on the perspective of an exhibitor, even though some of the visitors to the fair were my age. The pupils were able to find out about the companies in the region, take advantage of careers advice and get to know the variety of career opportunities.
I really enjoyed the fair and it was a great experience.
Overall, it was the right decision to do my internship at GEORG. It has been confirmed that the profession of technical product designer suits me and my skills very well.
Thank you very much for the great time!

Onboarding new employees
We are pleased to announce another "newcomer": Stefan Buch will "inherit" our long-standing Head of Purchasing, who will be taking his well-deserved retirement this year. Vera Moser is joining our HR team and will support with new energy
We wish you both a good start in the GEORG family.
BA degree R. Pankratz (dual student)
Young talent made by GEORG: We are delighted with our dual student Reinmar Pankratz, who has achieved a great Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. Hats off, not only for the great grades, but also for the practically relevant results of his bachelor's thesis. We can implement these directly in the machine development of our transformer lines.
We congratulate you on your excellent degree and are delighted that we will be able to actively support you during your Master's degree.
More room for growth
We are very grateful for the trust of our global customers from all product areas, who have given us significant growth, particularly in recent years. That is why we are continuing to invest in the future - not only in terms of technology and man power, but also in our own infrastructure, particularly in Germany and North America.
For example, we are currently building a new additional assembly hall in our new Plant 3 at our Headquarters in Kreuztal/Germany, and we are doing so in record time. We will celebrate the topping-out ceremony there in June and assemble the first units and machines for our customer orders there in the summer.
Welcome to the future.
Congratulations to Simon Weber (DS Mechanical Engineering) 2024
As one of the most attractive employers in our industry, we consistently produce high potentials. Simon Weber, for example, who has now successfully completed his mechanical engineering degree. Simon worked in our Roll Grinding product area alongside his studies and also wrote his bachelor's thesis there. His technical research is very valuable to us, so we will be implementing it.
Thank you, Simon! We are delighted to have you on board and look forward to working with you in the future.

Technology lessons
For almost a year now, the GEORG training workshop has regularly been transformed into a classroom in which the technology course at Kreuztal secondary school works together with GEORG trainees for a day of practical tasks. This allows the pupils to get out of their everyday school routine and get a taste of technical professions.
