The European Graduate Programme is Sony's two year programme which combines business experience, training modules, mentoring and social entrepreneurship.

Our European Graduate Programme (EGP) is recruiting young business professionals who want to join our continuous drive for innovation and be inspired by what they do.

From day one you will be collaborating on projects and contributing to current business strategy within experienced teams. We will give you the opportunity to progress and succeed, and in return we want you to make the most of it. That means taking personal responsibility for making a real and visible contribution to the company as well as to your own career.

Our graduates receive on-the-job development through their two assignments where they have the opportunity to discover different businesses and functions. As assignments are selected according to the organisation’s business needs, graduates are expected to be flexible since they may be placed in Sony’s Electronics, Games, Music or Pictures businesses across a multitude of European locations.

EGP assignments offer variety of functions such as Sales Strategy, Product Marketing, Communications, Business Development, Finance... What is most exciting for graduates is that the expectations from the business are high and that they are therefore expected to make a real contribution to the business over the course of their twelve month rotations.

Over the two years of the programme, our graduates attend EGP training modules covering the Value Chain components of a global digital entertainment brand.

These training modules take place in Sony sites across Europe and the content is delivered by Top Management providing a unique networking opportunity. Prior to the modules graduates work in virtual teams on case studies and present their results to Top Management.

As part of their EGP development each eurograd is matched to an individual mentor from the middle management Leadership Development Programme.

Mentors can provide informal advice, guidance and support in a graduate's career development as well as life with the company during and after the programme.

An important part of the graduates learning is adaptability to a new context (not-for-profit / less structured / fast changing) and the application of graduate business training outside of the traditional comfort zone.

Working effectively in virtual teams on international projects with a social obejctive creates a platform that encourages creativity, movitation and innovation.
