Were your expectations of the bachelor welcome program at zeb fulfilled?

My expectations of the program were met completely. During my time as an Analyst, I was able to gain valuable insights into everyday consulting work and knowledge of the banking industry. I was treated as a colleague from the very beginning and was quickly assigned responsibility. These experiences help me considerably during my Master’s studies.

Carolin

Consulting | Former Analyst

Why did you decide to join zeb directly as an analyst?

My Bachelor’s degree was very theoretical, and I always wanted more practical relevance and career orientation. After my last exam it was immediately clear: first work, then study some more. The Analyst program offers an ideal link-up between a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree as well as education and career.

What do you like most about your job?

What I like most about my job in ORG/IT is that the work is very varied and each project brings its own challenges, which allows you to gather lots of insights and ensures that no two days are the same.

Jan-Nick

ORG/IT | Professional

What are your responsibilities in the corporate functions?

As a graphic designer in the Design team, I am responsible for a variety of tasks, such as creating animations and social media posts, designing the layout and coordinating the printing of studies, or planning and organizing photo shoots. Every day is a little different and often brings new challenges that require creative solutions.

Verena

What do you like most about the cooperation with zeb?

At zeb, I not only learned how to deal with lots of new technologies, but I also got the opportunity to grow in fields where I already felt confident. The team has extremely strong know-how, and thanks to the straightforward communication channels, all colleagues can benefit from it.

Christoph

Software Development | Analyst

What do you like most about your job at zeb? 

Having studied German literature and linguistics, I didn’t originally have a background in business administration. But with the fantastic support of my colleagues at zeb, I have been able to familiarize myself with this field very quickly and can now do exactly what I enjoy, and that is working with texts.

Eugenia

Language Services | Senior Professional

What was the most exciting task in your internship?

My most exciting task during my internship at zeb was definitely the chance to go directly to an event and represent zeb there. I spent some really exciting days with great colleagues and was able to take a lot with me personally while networking.

Mariela

Recruiting | Expert

What surprised you most about zeb?

The programming language Scala that we use in our project. Because I didn’t know it before. Scala is very much based on category-theoretical structures, which particularly appeals to me as a trained theoretical mathematician.

Marius

Software Solutions | Senior Consultant

What do you like most about your role as a software developer?

I particularly enjoy the independent way of working and the variety of challenging technical and banking-related tasks. I also like the appreciative and collegial environment.

Tim

Software Solutions | Senior Consultant

What was the most exciting task/project so far and why?

My current project. We are designing an application that evaluates the sustainability of commercial borrowers in the three dimensions of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG).
I enjoy dealing with the topic of sustainability, which is becoming increasingly important. The same goes for the collaboration with colleagues (also external ones) and the client.

What do you like most about your role as a cloud operations engineer?

The work in the SaaS team is incredibly varied! In addition to technical tasks and the optimization of the AWS Cloud, topics such as the design of processes and the expansion of our IT Ops are on the agenda, but also the need to acquire new knowledge and deal with the latest technologies. The system monitoring and problem analysis are hands-on and give you the possibility to implement your own ideas to automate the operation in a professional way and for the long term. I get to use modern DevOps tools and provide input for the further development of the infrastructure.
