On November 21, 2024, the Carinthian tourism school in Villach turned into a lively meeting point for prospective specialists. The twelfth career day attracted numerous exhibitors and students who found out about career opportunities in the tourism -oriented sector. This event is an excellent platform to exchange ideas about exciting jobs and internships.

With a participant record this year, the students were able to access offers at around 37 stands. Not only hotels and international tour operators, but also cruise ships and renowned recruiting agencies presented themselves here. Austrian universities and universities of applied sciences also took the opportunity to present their study opportunities and win potential students.

strong network options

A particularly nice aspect of the Career Day was the opportunity for the participants to speak directly to former graduates of the tourism school. Jaqueline Riedel, who is now working at Tauroa, reported on her positive experience and received numerous internship inquiries from interested students. Peter Klinger, another graduate, used the event to present the Vienna University of Applied Sciences and win potential applicants. Such personal contacts are of great importance for the students because they can get insights into the practicality and the challenges of professions in tourism.

For the third college class of the school, the Career Day was an important learning event that was connected to its marketing studies. The students were able to use their knowledge in a practical environment, which made learning particularly clear and relevant.

These initiatives are decisive to help the prospective specialists get started with the often competitive tourism industry. Through such events, young people can not only make contacts, but also collect valuable information that they will advance in their career.
