UvA Career Skills Week

Every year in March, the UvA organises a week where both Dutch and international students can come into contact with companies. Aim of the UvA Career Skills Week is to challenge students and make them think about their career choices. Offering them insight into opportunities in the field, acquiring relevant skills, and introducing them to relevant alumni and companies.

We are looking for companies that want to teach a workshop on work-related skills, or a workshop on specific professional fields. If you are interested in participating, you can sign up for our mailing list below.

Participants are both Bachelor's and Master's students who are looking for part-time jobs, internships, or entry-level jobs.
