We will focus on both the study relevant student job and the unskilled student job in which you do not apply your competencies from your studies. 
 
The focus will be on: 

  • How can you find relevant companies? 
  • Which skills would you like to put into play?
  • How do you translate what you know into "business language"?
  • CV and cover letter – what should it contain?
  • Unsolicited student job search - how do you get started?
  • What are the expections to employees at the Danish labour market

We can’t guarantee you a student job, but we can help you increase your chances by showing you how a good CV can be structured and written and how you can find relevant openings as well as inciting you to reflect on your skill set. In addition, we will focus on the characteristics of the Danish labour market and which competences are valued. 

Please register if you wish to join this event. Registration is free of charge.
