Internships, temporary jobs, trainee programs and full-time jobs. Employers in engineering and related fields offered all of this at the 26th annual Career Fair, held March 7. The event was again a record in terms of the number of exhibitors, with 76 companies coming to present themselves.

The fair at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the BUT is annually accompanied by great interest from both students and exhibitors. Students often come to the stands of individual companies prepared and with very specific questions about the possibility of future employment in the company, helped by a website where they can find company offers in advance and their interest in specific study programmes and specialisations taught at the faculty.

"Career Fair offers a unique opportunity for our students to meet relevant employers. We invite students of all years to the event, as companies offer not only full-time jobs, but also cooperation on bachelor's and master's theses, internships, trainee programs or temporary jobs in the field. We try to motivate our students not to be afraid to gain experience while studying, every such item on a CV can be useful in the future," says Iveta Hovorková, the event coordinator.

Traditional partners of the faculty were not missing among the exhibitors, but every year there are also representatives of new companies looking for employment among the students of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
