The theme of the year: Create your own path

At this year's JobFest, various development opportunities and finding your own career path will be explored. Entrepreneurship, industry change, training opportunities. What can your company offer to someone building their own career path? What does your own career path look like?

During the event, expert speeches related to the theme will be organized and students will be supported in building their own career path in the event's pre-workshops.

Why JobFest?

We offer companies the opportunity to talk about their career opportunities and hear about young job seekers' expectations regarding working life and employment. We offer students the opportunity to get to know companies and find new avenues for employment.

Students come to this event well prepared, thanks to the advanced career guidance workshops. We were already thanked for this after previous events.

"Meetings with potential students and opening up career opportunities for them."
