Recently graduated? Start your career in Lister.

Trainee Lister is a regional trainee programme for the six Lister municipalities. You get a year of relevant work, professional development and a network – and get to know life in the region at the same time.

You won’t be here on your own

A good start is about more than the job. Through Trainee Meet you meet other young people across companies and industries, and get to know the people, the business community and the region.

    The outdoors

    Sea, mountains and fjords across the region – from surfing at Lista to dog sledding in Sirdal.

    Business

    Company visits and meeting places – plus membership of U45, the Lister Business Association’s network for young professionals.

For those who have studied – and want something new

The programme suits recent graduates and anyone looking for a fresh start in a region with great potential. The companies are as varied as the landscape: finance, high tech, engineering workshops, process industry and hydropower.

  • A bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree
  • Mainly recent graduates under 35
  • A couple of years’ work experience is no obstacle
