FAQ

Upon receiving your registration, the event organizers will review the provided information and contact you.

Company presentations take place at the booths in the WANTed meets WANTed area. Additionally, the event includes the WANTed Talks conference, brief introductions with students during the SPEED NETWORKING session, student engagement in fun activities at the Inspiration Space, entertainment performances, and other activities.

The Inspiration Space is located on the 0th and 1st floors of the “Žalgiris” arena. In the Inspiration Space, we kindly ask companies to present interactive and engaging activities for students. This area is not a booth zone, and companies are responsible for providing their own materials in this zone. The organizers will provide a table, chair, and power outlet for each company.

The Respite Space is designed for students and company representatives to relax, rest and chat with each other. Also in this space there will be a wall of company QR codes leading to the company’s job/internship ads and company logos. After scanning the codes, students will learn more about the open positions you offer.

WANTed job and internship offers platform is used by all KTU (and not only) students. Before the event, during the event and after it, students will search for your vacant positions on this platform. It is very important for the company not only to register on this platform, but also to provide all the necessary information about your company correctly. Free platform membership for a company will be valid from 3 to 12 months (depending on the chosen participant status).

One of the main goals of the KTU WANTed Career Days 2023 is to help students find an internship or a job. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you plan your current and future need for new colleagues well before the event and submit your proposals. The minimum recommended number of offers from the company on WANTed job and internship offers platform depends on the participant status of the event you have chosen:

  • “Participant” – 3 vacancies;
  • “Participant+” – 5 vacancies;
  • “Partner” – 7 vacancies;
  • “Main partner” – 10 vacancies.

Participant’s accreditation is necessary for a company representative to enter the “Žalgiris” arena. The accreditation will have to be shown to the security guard. All company representatives must have accreditations when passing through the arena ramp and technical facilities (e.g. changing rooms).

Located in the far left corner of the arena, this is the technical entrance distinguished by its exceptionally tall doors designed to accommodate large technical transport vehicles.

If the information you provide remains unchanged in essence, there is no need to send it. However, in the case of any substantial modifications or updates, please forward the revised information to partners@ktu.lt.

The installation of the stands will be handled by the stand organizer, who will take care of all related matters. We will provide you with the relevant contacts during the period of June-July.
