How it Works

The Fervo Bedrock Program is crafted to create the next generation of leaders in geothermal energy.

Rotation Selection:

  •  Candidates’ background and experience act as the bedrock layer of their experience—influencing their first rotation and final placement
  • Candidates’ first rotation will be determined by Fervo, based on education and work experience
  • Subsequent rotations determined on a case-by-case basis, based on combination of interests, company needs and opportunities, and mentor feedback
  • Final placements will be largely guided based on candidates’ experiences and what team is the best fit
