I figured /biz/ would be the best place to ask this.
So I recently graduated with an EE degree and am finding a lot of companies have something called a "leadership development program." It looks like they don't require any prior experience, besides a degree, and that they pay pretty well according to Google. I think I'm going to apply for a few of them.
Does anyone know anything about these? Is there a catch?
Please respond.

It is a fancy name for trainee programs.
During a pre-determined span of time you will be trained to perform a leadership role in an area related to your degree. You are EE, so it could be a lot of different stuff. You will probably like to assess the nature of the job prior to accepting an offer and see if it fits for you.
Despite being a program for people without experience, they will expect you to perform like any other employees in leadership positions. You will also be required to participate in training, that might or might not be related to your area of graduation. In my company, engineering trainees do basic accounting and sales training for example (besides product and technical bullshit training of course).
If you do not perform well for the duration of the program, you may be fired at any point of it. I have never seen anyone being fired here, though there were two literal autists, who were not capable to influence people and exert a leadership function at all. One of them was rearranged to R&D and the other left the program close to its ending. I wonder what he is doing now.
