Career Opportunities in the Karlsruhe TechnologyRegion

This training will be held in English and in person. Part of the series "Staying and Working in Germany."

Location: Gastdozentenhaus, Building 01.52, room "Großer Saal"

The Karlsruhe Technology Region is one of the strongest economic regions in Europe and aims to further expand its leading position by attracting and retaining international professionals.

But what makes this region so strong? And how can you become part of it as an international professional? In this session, you will explore the regional job market and identify opportunities that match your profile.

 You will:

  • gain insight into the economic strengths of the Karlsruhe Technology Region
  • explore career paths for international professionals in the region
  • learn how small and medium-sized enterprises function as “hidden champions” in their fields
  • identify companies that may fit your professional background
  • develop ideas on how to start your career in the region

You will gain a clearer understanding of how the regional job market is structured and how you can position yourself within it.

The session will be led by Sinéad O'Brien from the Welcome Center TRK, who advises international professionals, students, apprentices and companies in the region.
