Career Services

What jobs are “out there”, who might be your next employer and how do you get their attention?  

We’ll be more than happy to guide and help you find the answers to the questions above. The EPP career service includes 1:1 career counselling on the topic of your choice (and if you don’t know where to start, we’ll guide you), various career events and access to professional networks.  

Please note: our career services are provided as a support service. We will do everything we can to help you in your job search, but we do not offer any job guarantees.

Career Events and Webinars

All EPP career events and events/webinars hosted by our external collaborators are listed in the EPP event calendar.

Mentor Program

Together with our close collaborator at the International Employment Unit, we have co-designed a mentor programme, Inside-out.

In some cases, having a mentor can be a valuable tool in your job search process. In addition to discussing job search strategies and how things work within the specific field with a local professional, a mentor can also pave the way for professional networking opportunities.

If you would like to hear more about our mentor programme and discuss if the mentor program might make sense in your job search, please book an appointment to discuss.
