What would you be doing?

Wervingsdagen organizes three events (Skill Sessions, Career Expo and Interviewing Days) annually which are meant to establish contacts between students and companies.

Skill Sessions · 12-16 December, 2022

The Skill Sessions consists of a week filled with free workshops for students. How you decide to fill in these Skill Sessions is up to you, the future board. We strive to not only organize career related workshops, but also workshops for developing personal skills. About 1200 students attend over 60 workshops every year.

Career Expo · 7-8 March, 2023

The Career Expo is the second event organized by the board. Every year about 160 companies are present in the Auditorium with about 3600 students visiting. How the next edition of the Career Expo is organized, is completely free for your interpretation. Maybe you want to try out a new location? Or want to invite even more companies? It is all up to you!

Interviewing Days · 8-11 May, 2023

The Interviewing Days is the final annual event consisting of four days where students are able to have a lunch or dinner with recruiters along with eight students. Students can also have one-on-one conversations with recruiters which can be orienting or have direct conversations to apply for a job. Usually the Interviewing days are held in the Pullman Cocagne Hotel in the center of Eindhoven. Around 300 students speak with more than 60 companies.
