In order to stop the Greek “Brain Drain”, HELPE designed the Young Graduates Employment Program. Through this Program, HELPE is aiming to attract young dynamic and ambitious people that are willing to empower their knowledge and acquire working experience in the various organizational structures of the Group companies through real working conditions. Young Greeks do not actively participate in the domestic labor market; instead they are seeking better job prospects abroad or even prefer to prolong their educational process.
