As a recent graduate or with studies nearing their conclusion, working abroad is an ideal way to devote time to personal and professional growth. This is particularly true when job opportunities in Italy do not match expectations or are scarce due to the economic situation.
Nowadays, companies expect graduates to be fluent in at least one foreign language. As almost all economic sectors have frequent contact with foreign countries, language skills are essential for securing a first job and, even more so, a professional career. An application is further strengthened by a qualifying period abroad.
By completing a long internship at a foreign company and applying their training in a real context, graduates can make contacts for a stable job abroad or enhance their CV when applying for a job in Italy.
Then there are the job opportunities.
Where and what you are looking for determines the options available: You could look for a job in France, Germany or another EU country, where companies can hire citizens from EU without having to comply with immigration rules. Alternatively, you could look for a job in the United Kingdom, the United States or Australia, where strict immigration rules can make it difficult to find employment. You could look for a first job after graduating, a job to continue your career in Italy, or a temporary job to improve your language and international skills.
During the lecture, speaker Bernd Faas will illustrate strategies to check the feasibility of one's own project, providing useful information and advice.
In the first part, the speaker presents an overview of internship and job opportunities abroad. In the second part, he answers questions from participants.
The seminar is aimed at: students, recent graduates and experienced graduates.
