Theme series: Apprentices at Loibl
Category: Career, Company | | Created by Lea PfingstenDaniel (20), apprentice for technical product designer at Loibl Förderanlagen GmbH:
„My grandpa was a master mechanic and taught me everything about cars. I spend a lot of my free time working on all sorts of vehicles, but professionally I wanted to do something different. As a trainee for technical product design, I create 3-D models and develop machines and systems that are used in different industries all over the world. At Loibl, every project is different and I have a lot of variety.“
Daniel convinced the Loibl team and the Loibl team convinced him. In February 2021, he started his training as a technical product designer. "The team gave me a brilliant welcome." Daniel is especially grateful for his colleague Peter, who also trained as a technical product designer at Loibl and now works as construction engineer.
"Peter taught me everything. Especially in the beginning, it was difficult to get into the programs we work with at Loibl, but Peter helped me when I had problems." Incidentally, Peter and Daniel are old schoolmates, which is more due to coincidence, but makes working together even easier. "We see eye-to-eye," says Peter.
Another person who has influenced Daniel is Niko: one of the youngest project managers at Loibl. "He basically started from 0 to 100 and handles the big responsibility and even difficult projects super well." Daniel supports Niko on many assignments.
"At Loibl, you're actively involved as an apprentice right from the start. We often jump between projects, helping out here and there. As a result, we are constantly confronted with new challenges, which means we learn a lot in a very short time." Niko is very pleased with Daniel's performance: "He's fast, meticulous and always up for a laugh."
In his spare time, Daniel is committed to regional activities and loves to travel. "I'm a fan of FC Rain, I used to play soccer there myself." He is also active in the boys' club. Many of his friends are also members.
"We often do stuff together, go to parties or just spend the evenings with each other. It doesn't always have to be purposeful, I also like to be comfortably out and about," he laughs.
Next year, he wants to fulfill a big dream and travel to Iceland with his girlfriend. "The rugged landscape with its mountains, lakes and geysers fascinates me. I've been looking forward to this for a long time, to finally see it in person."
Daniel's plan for after his apprenticeship? "Staying with Loibl, of course! I'll definitely add on the technician and get a trainer's license."
