About the Program

The eBay Global Graduate Rotation Program is a 24 month, full time, fixed term development program designed to help you build real commercial skills from day one.

This program is consistent across participating markets and built around a clear skills framework developed with business leaders. We hire for potential and behaviours, then intentionally develop the skills that drive impact at eBay.

Over two years, you will complete two structured rotations across different parts of our marketplace. Each rotation gives you hands-on experience, real project ownership and exposure to senior leaders.

This is a defined two year journey. Once you join the program, you commit to completing all rotations and development milestones through to the end of the 24 months.
