InternFest

InternFest, organized in the fall, brings students directly to your open internships to be interviewed. We prepare students for interviews and all you have to do is show up with an open internship!

InternFest – get to know the person first

You will immediately get a more in-depth view of the student applying for an internship. The student, on the other hand, gets directly to the first stage of the job interview and shows what he is like as a person. Competence and motivation will be reviewed as the discussion progresses. After this, you can invite the potential authors to a second interview - after you have first gotten to know the person.


For who?

We invite Laurea's key partners who have open internships at the time of InternFest for students in these fields:

  • Business Management
  • Business Management, Legal competence training
  • Business Information Technology
  • Bachelor's Degree Programme in Safety, Security and Risk Management

What?

A recruitment event where well-prepared students come to be interviewed directly for open internship positions. The time of the internship can be later.

Where?

Laurea Leppävaara's campus, lobby
Vanha maantie 9, 02650 Espoo

      • Internships are used in marketing the event
      • Students will prepare themselves to discuss internships
    3. Prepare for about 10 minutes of interview discussions with students at the stand
      • Things to be considered:
        • The space is not private, so questions should be considered accordingly
        • A good idea could be to focus on the so-called motivational questions and getting to know the person - not focusing on the experience
        • "Why do you want to work in this field/company/etc.?"
        • "What do you want to learn from this training?"
        • "How does this internship fit into your future plans?"
      • If necessary, teaching rooms are also available for private discussions
    4. Book appointments in your calendar in advance for job interviews after InternFest
      • It would be good for the student to be able to book an appointment themself, once they have received permission (e.g. direct link to the calendar)
    5. Prepare your own marketing materials
      • One table and electricity at your disposal
      • Do you need anything else? Be in touch!
