Career fairs like the KIT-career fair offer a unique chance to connect directly with employers—but simply showing up isn’t enough. To stand out and increase your chances of landing an interview or job offer, you need a clear strategy.

In this interactive training, you will learn:

✅ How to prepare effectively for career fairs like the KIT-career fair – research, goal setting, and creating a strong introduction
✅ How to confidently approach recruiters and decision-makers – what to say and how to make a lasting impression
✅ How to follow up strategically – keeping the conversation going after the event
✅ How to leverage your online network (e.g., LinkedIn) to support your career fair efforts
✅ How to make the most of existing contacts and expand your professional network

By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear plan to network effectively at career fairs and turn conversations into real career opportunities.

This training is funded by the DAAD project ‘Study, stay, succeed in Karlsruhe’. International students intending to graduate at KIT and Hochschule Karlsruhe are given priority for a place as well as graduates up to 1 year after graduation.

 Non-international students can also enroll and will be placed at the waiting list. We inform them a few days before start, if there are places left for non-international students and if they can attend.
