STUDENTS:
The event is (of course!) free of charge for students. Come and meet up with companies and see what they have to offer you and grab a free coffee at the café.
We will hand out color code stickers to all students according to what field you are studying (see the color codes), to make it even easier for both you and the companies to find your perfect match.
TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL EVENT:
- Do your groundwork and get acquainted with the companies in advance.
- It’s not a bad idea to have to have copies of your (updated!) CV and/or business cards with you, leave the companies something to remember you by!
You can print business cards for free in our Student Office! - Visit the group presentations! This will give you a more detailed picture of the participating companies. Be sure to have some questions ready for them for the discussion afterwards!
- Don’t have time? Remember that you don’t have to spend the whole day at the event, fifteen minutes is better than nothing! And you can just drop in at any time.
