I’ve been fortunate to have gained my vocational experience at Bühler Motor, where I spent my first two weeks in the Sales and Marketing Department. There, I gained a thorough understanding of the automotive industry, Bühler’s product portfolio, and its strategic marketing strategies. By experiencing the day-to-day activities of the workplace, I also witnessed firsthand the impact of China’s rare-earth magnet export controls and US tariffs, not just on Bühler but on nearly all players in the automotive world. I participated in meetings with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier 1 Customers, and also created Market Information reports for the company. Additionally, I completed a research project on a business development opportunity, which I presented to the team on my last day. I’m sad to say goodbye to the S&M team but am looking forward to starting my next experience in the Advanced Engineering department! |
