Career advice from recruiters and young professionals
Straight from our live streams: how to apply, interview and grow.Skills employers look for
Hard skills expire. Soft skills don't
In a world that is changing so fast, the hard skills you studied can become obsolete. So work on your soft skills too: how you communicate, how you work in diverse teams and how you manage unexpected situations.

How to prepare for job interviews
Be yourself. People notice when you're not
Always be yourself and always be authentic. Never try to be someone you're not. It's not authentic anymore, and people will notice.

How to make your application stand out
Put months, not just years, on your CV
Don't just put the years of your experience; put the month and the year. "2021 to 2022" might look like two years, but it might be two months, and nobody will call you to ask.
Cédric BENGUEYPP Program Manager · World Bank Group
Skills employers look for
A growth mindset beats any single skill
Each role has its own skill requirements, but what we really need is adaptability, collaboration, problem solving and a willingness to learn. A growth mindset is really important for a successful candidate.

How to make your application stand out
Build a CV that tells one story
If you know early what you'd like to do and where you'd like to be one day, plan your studies, your working-student positions and your internships towards that goal. Then you always have a strong argument for why you did it.
Julian PankoTrainee Smart Production & Logistics · BMW Group
How to make your application stand out
Show the problem, not the tool
Don't just tell us what tools you know or what your background is. Tell us what problem you solved, who the audience was, why you chose that approach and what you learned. That tells me how you think.

Changing careers and non-linear paths
From academia to industry R&D
I came from the research world, and it was not an obstacle. It was an opportunity. I was not just another engineer designing the same bolt over and over.
Michal StebelR&D Team Leader · Hitachi Energy
What graduate and trainee programmes are really like
A broad network in a very short time
That's exactly what the trainee programme is about: experiencing the same product from different points of view, getting to know different perspectives, and building a broad overview and a broad network in a very short amount of time.
Julian PankoTrainee Smart Production & Logistics · BMW Group
What graduate and trainee programmes are really like
Leave with skills you didn't join with
I came in without investment experience and I'll be leaving with investment experience, even though it's a different stream. That's the beauty of this programme: you still get the chance to learn something new.
Zubin DeyalWBG Young Professional · World Bank Group
Changing careers and non-linear paths
Today's job doesn't define tomorrow's
The position you have today doesn't necessarily define the position you'll have tomorrow. Always think openly, be curious and look for opportunities that give you continuous learning. Growth follows naturally.
