Career Tuesday Preparing for career events on 12th November!

Job fairs provide an exceptional opportunity to make connections. There's no other place where you can conduct so many interviews in such a short time, showcase your strengths, or gather essential information. However, to succeed, it's crucial to prepare in advance. In this workshop, we will address the following questions:

• How do I plan my visit to the job fair?
• How do I present myself to leave a lasting impression?
• What should I do if I find it challenging to approach people?
• How do I maintain contact after the fair?

This event is the perfect preparation for any contact with companies, let it be the company networking events that we offer at the WiSo Career service, as well as the upcoming Absolventenkongress in Cologne,  that will take place on 28th and 29th.

Career coach and trainer Anselm Moors helps young people clarify their goals, values, and priorities. With his support, they enter the application process with confidence and enthusiasm, making job interviews a constructive and positive experience rather than a stressful interrogation.

When and where: Tuesday, 12th November, 5:00–6:30 p.m. @Online via Zoom

Language: English

What does the outcome of the US elections mean for the global economy? Is there a threat of an escalating trade conflict with China? And how have the reciprocal punitive tariffs actually affected the economy so far?
