Fair schedule

On this page you will find important details on how to prepare for the career fair as well as on the schedule before and on the two days of the fair.


Before the career fair: Matching via the web-based app talentefinder®

Already in the run-up to the two days of the fair, companies on the one hand and students, graduates and pupils on the other hand are connected. All exhibiting companies will receive a link from the Career Center that leads to the event on the online platform talentefinder®, where the company profile and the open job offers can be entered. The various target groups of the fair will also have access to talentefinder® and register there with a profile by providing information about their CV and interests. Companies can look through these profiles and give "Likes" to suitable profiles. When a mutual "Like" is given, i.e. the talent has also given the company a "Like", a "Match" is created, which enables to chat with each other and to arrange an appointment for the university contact fair. Depending on the booked service package, companies can choose between personal appointments on the presence day and virtual appointments on the online day or only digital meetings on the online day.
