In the 4th year of the business college in Perg, Austria, I worked in a training company which was called Dagmar Gucci. In this company half of our class worked for the school year. We worked together with other training companies from Austria and also from abroad. Some of them have been our customers, others have been our suppliers. Everything was like in a real company except that we didn’t work with real money. The company dealt with perfumes of different labels.
During the whole year we got a lot of information and earned experience, because the training company provided us the possibility to see how it is to work in a real company.
The training company Dagmar Gucci was divided into a few departments: the management, secretary, marketing, accounting, personnel and purchasing department.
Our manager was Ms Renzl, our form teacher. In our training company we had a job rotation-system, which enabled us to see, how it is to work in the different departments.
