KTU WANTed Career Days will bring together representatives from various sectors – from IT, engineering, and finance to creative industries, government institutions, and social partners. It’s a unique opportunity to meet professionals from different fields, discover new career paths, and make valuable connections. 

The job and internship postings of companies participating in the event will be published on the WANTed job and internship platform.

If you’re not sure which companies are relevant to you, we recommend: 

• Researching companies in advance – review the list of organizations participating in the event, learn about their areas of activity, and the opportunities they offer. 

• Being open to new opportunities – even if a company doesn’t seem directly related to your study program or future profession, a conversation may open unexpected career paths. 

• Visiting an individual career consultation before the event. The university’s career consultant will help you identify your interests, goals, and suggest which company stands might be worth visiting. Register for a career consultation through your account in the Academic Information System (AIS). 

The event program will soon be published on the KTU WANTed Career Days website. Follow updates also on KTU’s official social media and mark the activities you are interested in in advance.

Start simply – smile and introduce yourself: say your name, what you study, and which year of studies you are in. You can briefly mention your interests or what kind of job or internship you are looking for. 

If you’re not sure how to begin, just ask: 

You don’t need to memorize a speech word-for-word – the most important thing is to be curious, open, and show genuine interest in their activities. 

Sample questions to start a conversation: 

• What does your company do? 

• What internship or job opportunities do you offer to international students? 

• Which areas or projects are currently the most relevant in your company? 

• What skills do you value the most in new employees? 

• What does a typical student internship program in your company look like? 

• Do you offer students the opportunity to take part in team projects or mentoring programs? 

• What advice would you give to a student who wants to start a career in your field? 

• What aspects help a candidate stand out the most when applying to your company? 

• How does your company foster community and teamwork – do you organize events or initiatives? 

• What does the selection process for internships or job positions look like? 

• What do you personally like the most about working at this company? 

Choose an outfit in which you feel comfortable but look neat and professional. A smart casual style works perfectly – not overly formal but still leaves a good impression. The most important thing is that your clothes are clean, tidy, and help you feel confident when talking to employers.
