The career fair is reserved to PhD candidates, postdoctoral fellows and researchers at MN, OD and NHM.
To successfully organize a career fair that accommodates the needs of both candidates and companies, we require key information about the expertise and skills candidates attending the fair possess. This data plays a crucial role in enabling companies to tailor their presence at the event accordingly. With this information, companies are better equipped to select appropriately skilled representatives from their organization to participate and focus on the most relevant points when presenting themselves. Ultimately, this will result in well-prepared potential employers for candidates to meet, ensuring a mutually beneficial outcome for all parties involved.
