More than 500 students and graduates attended the event, approaching company representatives to ask questions and learn about current labor market trends, specialized projects, and career or internship opportunities.
Alongside the exhibition, several informative sessions were held. UFAZ presented its master’s programs, while the State Employment Agency offered a two-hour on-site consultation for participants. AZCON Holding also introduced its “Digital Bridge” internship program.
The career fair was recognized as an important platform for supporting the professional development of students and strengthening ties between academia and industry.
