All year round, Career Service invites employers and alumni to come on campus to meet MBA students, interviewthem and recruit them for summer internships or permanent positisions.
Attending company presentations and networking events and making yourself visible helps you start creating a network of contactsyou will be able to build on for years to come.
Visiting employers at their sites is even more exciting: interest-based groups of students may be invited to and help organize Career treksand Company visits in Italy and abroad.
International Business Challenges sponsored by global companies in the healthcare, consumer goods, consulting or venture capitalsectors encourage the most competitive candidates of top business schools to engage in a fair but tough competition over a businesscase. Winning teams get great visibility and often gain a fast track to a summer internship engagement and more.
Even if some employers are not able to come on campus, it does not mean they are not interested in you: Career Service coordinatesapplications to online job-postings on the School’s platform and helps recruiters to select candidates for interviews directly from the CV Database.
Career Service also encourages entrepreneurship and partners with students who seek emplyment on their own, providing advice andfacilitating contacts.
