Globalportalen and FUF invite you to a career workshop!
Are you thinking about doing an internship or how to move forward after your internship? How do you get an internship and can an internship lead to a job? Globalportalen and FUF invite you to an inspiring conversation about the importance of internships for your future career!
An internship is often much more than a step towards your first job – it is an opportunity to build experience, network and understand how the development sector actually works. During this hour you will meet people who have used internships as a springboard into working life in different ways. Take the opportunity to ask your questions about how you can succeed with an application, what it is like to be an intern and how you can move forward after your internship.
