  2. Apply problem-solving and critical thinking skills to daily operational challenges, learning from both frontline leaders and your mentor while contributing to production flow, process improvement, quality control and yield optimization in each department.
  3. Receive performance evaluations at the end of each rotation and complete a self-assessment to reflect on learning, identifying growth areas and setting goals for continuous improvement.
  4. Participate in three core development sessions focused on accountability, communication and collaboration and engage in Early Talent team events to build essential leadership competencies and peer connections.
  5. Submit a weekly and monthly report summarizing key learnings, challenges and questions to ensure continuous engagement and visibility to program leaders.
