Alumni Talk: From Campus to Career – Navigating the Job Market in Germany
Are you an international student at FHP and curious about how you can shape your career path in Germany? Then take part in our Alumni Talk and be inspired by the experiences of former students who have successfully made the transition from university to the job market.
In this talk, FHP alumni will share their personal career journeys and experiences in a moderated interview and talk about how they mastered the transition from university to the labour market in Germany. They will address the challenges they have faced, the successes they have achieved and give valuable tips on internships, networking and application strategies.
After the interviews, there will be an open exchange where all participants can ask questions and dive into direct conversations.
This event is designed to provide practical insights and inspiration to help you take confident steps towards a successful career in Germany.
This alumni talk will be held in English.
