If you are a small or medium-sized company from the region of Rhenish Hesse and would like to introduce yourself and your field of activity to students from JGU and the Mainz University of Applied Sciences, our “Karriere in der Region” event is your chance.

The “Karriere in der Region” event takes place every year in spring and fall, focusing on either a specific topic or professional field. In this context, employers can give a short presentation about their companies to our students and graduates. Interested students can then visit the company booths for a more personal exchange.

Past topics:

• Green jobs
• Corporate consulting
• Sports & health
• Media & communication
• Sustainability

We organize the event in collaboration with the Mainz University of Applied Sciences and the Business Development office of the city of Mainz.

Communication and media, administration and management, research and academia, cultural, political and social affairs – the range of professional fields available to graduates of the humanities and social sciences is vast. Is your organization looking for talent in these areas?

Our career evenings for the humanities and social sciences give employers the opportunity to get in touch with students from these disciplines. Students of the humanities and social sciences often do not have concrete ideas about career opportunities in their fields. You can share insights into your professional practice with a short presentation and then talk to them in a relaxed atmosphere at your booth.

Is your organization looking for international talent? The Matching Week, our online career week for international students and students with a migratory background, gives you the opportunity to reach up to 50,000 students at six higher education institutions in the Rhine-Main region. These young researchers are characterized by extraordinary commitment, great adaptability, and a high degree of internationality.

Matching Week offers a platform for employers and potential employees to meet in a digital setting. Employers select candidates from among the applications they have received and interview them via videocall. The event is advertised at all partner universities.

Organizations and employers who offer or organize internships abroad can present themselves and their services at our digital “Praktika Welt-offen” fair. In this way, you help our students visit interesting countries, continue their personal development, and contribute to their own careers – all at the same time.

There is a short section for presentations in which you give our students an overview of your services and field of activity; then you can meet them and answer their questions in breakout rooms.

As part of our involvement in the FORTHEM Alliance, an alliance of nine European universities from nine European countries, we organize the English-language “Digital Internship Fair” once a year for international students from Mainz, Dijon, Valencia, Riga, Opole, Sibiu, Kristiansand, Jyväskylä und Palermo to find out about internship opportunities in Germany.

If you are interested in international and English-speaking interns, this event gives you the opportunity to briefly present the opportunities your organization has to offer and speak to interested students individually in breakout rooms later.

In our panel discussions on professional fields and subject areas, students can get first-hand information about specific fields of work and the prerequisites for entering them. Representatives from companies and organizations discuss current and frequently occurring issues in their professional fields and answer questions from the student audience.

Past topics:

• Life sciences
• Social topics
• Volunteering
• Launching your career as a founder
• Press and public relations

Or would you like to give interested students direct insights into your field of work? Our students visit your company on-site to learn more about it during company visits.
