Career advice from recruiters and young professionals
Straight from our live streams: how to apply, interview and grow.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.

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.
Luca GambiniSenior Director Business Delivery Partner · Sunrise
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.

How to prepare for job interviews
Rehearse the video interview
I wish I had rehearsed before the video interview. Even asking ChatGPT for ten questions, then giving yourself thirty seconds to prepare and pretending you're recording, shows you how you articulate your thoughts under pressure.

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.
Julian PankoTrainee Smart Production & Logistics · BMW 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.

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
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
Changing careers and non-linear paths
Switching industries isn't starting over
Career path is not a straight line. Moving from one industry to another doesn't mean you're starting from scratch. At every stop, I carried my experience and knowledge with me.

Skills employers look for
Go deep in one area, then learn the rest
I look for a combination of technical skills and soft skills, and the soft skills are the hardest to acquire. I need problem solvers who collaborate, communicate well and think outside the box. Then master at least one technical area, and be flexible enough to learn the others.
