A World of Opportunity for Graduates
Are you ready to put your education to work? If you are, our dynamic Horizons graduate development program has been created
specifically for you.
Horizons is a competency-based program available to new employees who have recently graduated from, or have less than five
years experience in, selected disciplines. The program's main focus is the first five years of your journey, but the development
and planning tools used in Horizons will be valuable throughout your career.
Horizons Philosophy
The Horizons program develops employee competency through technical training, assignments and mentoring. These three tenets
will have a critical role in developing your career.
Horizons provides several benefits to both employees and Chevron including:
- Attracting and retaining the best people.
