ASML offers multiple high-quality entry points, including internships, co-ops, and named early-career programs like the Management Traineeship and Gateway programs. The company also explains hiring steps better than most industrial tech employers, especially for internships, and backs early hires with structured coaching and development support. The main limiter is outcomes transparency, because ASML shares stories and review scores, but does not publish consistent cohort-level conversion, retention, or promotion data for early-career hires.
