With your brand new UT diploma in your hand the world is at your feet. It’s time for your first job to start your career! Or perhaps you’ve already been employed for a couple of years and are looking for a new challenge. To help you succeed in your job hunt you could use some tips & tricks and a larger network. We get that since we as board of the UT Young Alumni Network are also always looking for new opportunities for personal and professional growth.
This is why we founded the UT Young Alumni Network for alumni under the age of 35. A platform for and by alumni, supporting, empowering and inspiring professional development and help with (the first) challenging steps of the corporate world. We organize lectures, workshops, networking events and other activities. All these activities are focused around networking, your career, personal growth and of course enjoyment.
Our very first event will take place on Thursday the 29th of June at the headquarters of Booking.com in Amsterdam. This is one of the best known UT start-ups! The doors will open at 19:00. The UT alumni working at Booking.com will talk about tips & tricks you might need to get hired at a multinational, how do you get your resume to stand out, personal experiences and much more.
