This year’s OPD student event will focus on the intricacies of gaining employment after graduation. The panel discussion will feature representatives from both the industry and the academy and they will offer their perspectives and tips on the job application process. What are the best ways to make your CV stand out? What to do and avoid in an interview? What are the best soft skills to have? The panel will also feature a person with personal experience on gaining employment in Finland as a foreigner.
After the panel there will be a more relaxed quiz competition that is inspired by game shows and boardgames! Best team wins a price!
