While the Challenge Program may be delivered differently across the business segments worldwide, the common purpose is to develop new graduates, and provide them with intensive training. The co-workers thrived at making the system work but struggle with why one office followed the rules and the other did not.Role synopsis The Challenge Program is a global initiative for new graduate recruits in their 24-36 months with the company. Those that followed the expectations have been removed or replaced within the company and those that did not follow it remain. The roll-out of a new directive created a great challenge for many people and choices had to be made to either follow the guidelines or to not. As i stated before the most enjoyable part of the job was the team that we had on and all the regular customers. The manager was very fair, basically if you completed your jobs and worked as a team then she was pleased. The hardest part of the job i think was having too come into a shift where the shift before had been extremely busy and run off their feet that they had no time to complete the daily jobs that needed to be done, so it left you having too complete 2 shifts jobs in one shift, is definitely achievable if you put your head down. We never had to question what they wanted as we knew once we saw their car pull into the forecourt, they along with the team really made working there worth while.
