Online seminar of the Career Services department at the ZfbK: Networking, hidden job market and unsolicited applications – for international students and graduates

The events take place as online seminars. Please register for it in Stud.IP. All participants will receive the link to the online seminar via Cisco Webex one day before. General information on the use of Cisco Webex can be found on the following Page.   

In Germany, many employers do not post job offers publicly - they prefer to rely on their network to find matching candidates. Therefore, students should start early to build their own network when looking for a job in Germany. Strategic contact building and sending out unsolicited applications are important key factors.

For international students this can be challenging. In this online workshop you will get to know reliable strategies to build a network, use it for your job search and compose high quality unsolicited applications. The three hour session in English includes professional input as well as practical exercise, led by recruiting expert Annika Schneider from the WILA Arbeitsmarkt.

The WILA Arbeitsmarkt is specialized on supporting job-seeking students and graduates and features more than 20 years of experience in this field. Our magazine provides several hundred job offers every week as well as information about job opportunities and recruiting trends.

Lecturer: Annika Schneider
