The article talks about a 6 month period at Maranello, plus this is for university engineering graduates, not 16yr school drop-outs looking for placements down their local supermarket.I could probably get a few days shadowing down at my Ferrari dealership just to get the name on my CV.

What a load of rubbish. An internship can make the difference between getting a job or not for graduates, certainly did for me.I could probably get a few days shadowing down at my Ferrari dealership just to get the name on my CV. But at the end of the day it would mean f

It certainly was on mine. Having a big name on your CV really helps in the recruitment process when you graduate, you are fighting among thousands of similarly qualified people, and any way you can stasnd out is a huge positive.
Been a very British team at the top for a long time. Pat Fry, Steve Clarke and James Allison at the top technically now and all very English.

there are jobs in F1 for good graduates, just difficult to find good graduates how have pushed to get motor racing experience whilst younger.

Well done Munich bringing our nation pride right back down to earth.
Perhaps a few german companies should open themselves up to foreign ownership and employees. That's right they cannot be can they. Competition goes one way inside German but 2 ways abroad.
Great for the potential employees. Really hope they are accepted. Unique experience for all concerned.

Wtf would any half decent well qualified engineering graduate waste their time on an internship????
Christ I could walk them into a half dozen different jobs everyday!!!
How much would all these jobs pay relative to a highly respected F1 engineer? Less I'd imagine, unless they followed the usual Engineering Graduate route and got a well paid job in banking!!Christ I could walk them into a half dozen different jobs everyday!!!

Good stuff. Anyone lucky enough to land the job should know it's been voted the best place to work many times. That goes for all companies, not just car firms. I imagine the staff there all feel very proud, and so they should.
I thought Google would have that crown, what with all their table football games, free fizzy drink machines, bowling alleys all on site.tram50 said:

About twice as much. Automotive pays fk all, motorsport even less because there is no direct revenue stream off it. DJRC said:

Not all internships are the unpaid kind you hear of in certain industries - lots of them pay a pretty decent wage and some courses require you complete an internship in order to gain your degree....Christ I could walk them into a half dozen different jobs everyday!!!
Most (all?) 4 year honours degrees require a year in industry. They used to be called sandwich courses, not sure about now. "Thick" sandwich courses spend year 3 working, whereas "thin" ones spend 1 term a year. Its really not unusual to find a cluster of Brits in any technical area around the world. We seem to be driving most of America's behind-the-scenes film industry at the moment too.

Only because they're made four years long by the placement year. I don't recall ever seeing a four-year course with a placement option that didn't also have a straight-through three-year option.Not to say that a year in industry is a bad idea or unnecessary, quite the reverse, I'm on mine at a large OEM now
but just to point out that it's by no means required to get a high-level degree in engineering. Quite a few people don't even seem to consider doing one.tram50 said:

It's a tough gig according to my mates who are there, I'm sure the higher you go up the tree the rewards exist though.
