Are you interested in finding new talent and potential employees? Are you seeking to present your own field of work and showcase the opportunities your company can offer? Do you want to talk to our students about career prospects and your field of work? You can do that – through events, platforms, and contact options organized by the Career Service!

As the interface between companies, organizations, employers, and our students and graduates, we organize career fairs and professional orientation events and run a free job portal, accessible through our Career Center. We help our students find out job requirements, get to know potential employers, and find their dream job.

Do you have any questions? Are you interested in talking to us about your options? If so, please contact us!

We organize and host events meant to give you the opportunity to get to know our students – from career fairs on campus and online events on specific topics to panel discussions and events for international students. Thank you for your interest in getting in touch with our students!

Would you like to take part in one of our events? Contact us!

Are you interested in placing job advertisements for internships, working student positions, or entry level positions in your company that are aimed at our approx. 30,000 students – free of charge? Would you like to promote events where students can receive career orientation or earn supplementary qualifications?

Together with JobTeaser, we run our own job and event portal – our Career Center. You can register there to advertise jobs at JGU or publish events, free of charge.

You can create a profile with further information about your organization in our Career Center. To do so, you must register as a company on the website.

A company profile is also the right choice if you want to create events as well as advertise jobs free of charge. Events appear in the event calendar and are automatically included in the weekly newsletter.

Create a recruiter account if you primarily want to advertise jobs. You can create and publish up to four job advertisements per year free of charge. If you want to publish more than that, you can create a company profile.

If you have questions, you can check the comprehensive FAQ for recruiters.

Good luck recruiting!

We are not the right contact for advertisements or holding your own company events on campus. Please contact JGU’s Infrastructural Property Management (Infrastrukturelles Liegenschaftsmanagement) for related inquiries.

Volunteering and gaining work experience at the same time – that’s the idea behind our volunteer work projects.

Together with foundations, associations, and NGOs, we organize projects for innovative learning which allow students to volunteer and contribute to society mainly through independent work. In doing so, they gain professional experience and can apply their knowledge and newly acquired skills while learning a lot of new things.

Participating organizations profit from interdisciplinary teams made up of motivated students who help carry out current or new projects. Organizations are introduced to new concepts and approaches for their own work, receive energetic support with their activities, and get to know potential volunteers or future employees.

Thanks to our involvement in the FORTHEM Alliance, which is made up of nine cooperating European universities, projects can also be implemented internationally and in English!

With around 30,000 students from more than 120 countries, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) is one of the largest German universities and the academic and scientific hub of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. About 4,700 academics, including around 580 professors, teach and conduct research here at over 150 institutes and medical centers.

Our students study and conduct research in more than 70 disciplines and over 240 degree programs. JGU covers nearly the entire spectrum of subjects taught at universities – from law, management, and economics to the natural and social sciences and the humanities, to medicine and dentistry and the integration of music, fine arts, and sports, which is unique in the German educational landscape. Additionally, the Faculty of Translation Studies, Linguistics, and Cultural Studies, located in Germersheim, trains translators and interpreters in various European and non-European languages.

This variety of subjects guarantees interdisciplinary research and teaching, and – in the spirit of the university’s namesake Johannes Gutenberg – innovative approaches to new ideas and technologies. And that’s how we turn 30,000 students into 30,000 new talents for your company.
