On Thursday 8 April, the lobby and first floor of Jƶnkƶping International Business School was teeming with mingling, discussing and networking company representatives and students.
Nextstep, the JIBS career day, gives the students a chance to learn more about local as well as international companies, and the companies in their turn can meet interested prospective employees.
33 companies from different sectors were represented at the fair, and guest lectures were held by Ivan Daza, creator and CEO of ā€¯Blattefƶrmedlingenā€¯ (working with recruitment and employment in the leadership and change management), Camilla Ljunggren, CEO of SIFE Sweden and appointed one of Europeā€™s best young entrepreneurs by Business Week, and Daniel Tornberg, CEO of ā€¯Advokatfirman fƶr MarknadsrƤttā€¯ (the only law firm in Sweden that works exclusively with Market Law).
Prior to the event, students could visit the nextstep website to fill out a questionnaire, which then was matched against a similar questionnair filled out by the companies. The idea is to help students to find the companies that are most likely to be interested in their particular skills and qualities.
The day concluded with a banquet and entertainment, as well as an after-party.
