What is the Career Fair?

The Career Fair is a platform where internationally active companies as well as small companies or consulting firms introduce themselves to graduates and students. Here you have the opportunity to look around for internships, working student activities and final theses as well as to find out about direct entry into the company. Even if you just want to look around to see which company suits you, our careers fair is the right place for you. This is your chance!
At the fair, you can make contacts, ask questions informally and talk to company representatives. Because personal contact says more than any application documents.
Take the first step towards your dream job at our career fair! The company representatives look forward to getting to know you!

What are the benefits of visiting the Career Fair?

You have the opportunity to make contact with interesting employers from various sectors in a pleasant atmosphere and gain (initial) experience in the application process. You can find out whether the company is a good fit for you by talking to employees from Recruiting, the HR/Human Resources department and career starters. You can find out what the company expects from applicants and how to get started by talking to career starters in particular.

Personal contact always says more than just the application documents. Therefore, you are welcome to seek a personal exchange with the employees of the respective companies present.

For subsequent applications, you can mention your visit to our career fair in your cover letter. It is even better if you can mention the names of the people you spoke to at the fair in your cover letter.

You can also find out more about the companies that interest you in the company presentations. Get to know new companies and career paths and find out more about starting a career - that's what our career fair is all about.

How can I prepare myself for the career fair?

Find out about the exhibiting companies in the run-up to the career fair. A very good source of information at this point is our career fair catalog, which is also available free of charge as a print version on the day of the fair. You will also find a lot of information on the Internet and careers pages of the respective companies.
The best way to prepare yourself is to attend a workshop or seminar the day before as part of our two-day career fair, which will also help you develop important soft skills. We also offer application document checks both on the day before and on the day of the fair.

The better you are aware of your own strengths, weaknesses, wishes and goals, the easier it will be for company representatives to respond to you.
