“The combination between padel and networking was great. We were looking for student employees and I got to talk to a few that were interested.”

“Great to hear about an interesting company and get a good insight. Also great with free food as a student. I will be going to more events in the future.”

“If it wasn’t for Destination AARhus, I wouldn’t have gotten to talk to the amazing team at BESTSELLER which helped me in landing my student job.”

“When I moved to Denmark, I set myself a goal - to get a job in my field within half a year. I was introduced to Destination AARhus in an online webinar. I got to know that they host networking events where you can meet several companies in the local area. I knew it was the perfect chance for me to find a suitable job. They held an event at the end of October, and I talked to several companies. The next day I did not hesitate and applied to my favorite one, Systematic. I had to wait a little longer than I expected for an answer - but eventually, I got an interview. And since February, I have been working as a Junior System Engineer at Systematic.”

“We are happy that we got this opportunity by winning the tickets from Destination AARhus' Student Club. The GOTO Aarhus Conference has been very interesting and super exciting. There has been a good depth in the content, and as an IT student, it is fortunate to get new tools and a unique insight into the industry and the language that gets used. Also, the conference has created opportunities to network in a different setting as at the after-party. Of course, we are not complaining about the good catering either.”

“Padel is fun and a lot of professionals play padel, so it is a great combination.”

“It was fun working with IT professionals in a workshop where you get to use specific skills to solve a task. Also, I got to know a lot about their work and every day.”

“It was great to be allowed to take part in a workshop as an IT student. Especially, because you get an idea of how it is in real life. The idea behind the workshop and the concept was cool - even though it did not quite work out. But that is what happens. It is definitely not the last event I am going to.”

“I liked the vibe, casual and comfortable.”

“The event organized in collaboration with the University helped me land the job that I was so dependent on. Having some emails where to send my CV helped me get the interview for my student job at Danske Bank. The events have had the most beneficial impact that I could have wished for.”

“These events are the best way to meet companies for internationals.”

“I liked the food, the people, the experience. It was great to see the insides of such a big company.”

“It is a great way to see companies first hand.”

“I attended a student lunch visit at BESTSELLER TECH arranged by Destination AARhus, and BESTSELLER immediately caught my interest as a workplace. Here, employees told us what it was like to work at the company – and I would like to highlight what a great experience it was to meet potential coworkers and listen to their experiences and work journeys [...] I went home and sent my application that same day. As a stroke of luck, I was not offered the position I initially applied for: Instead, my application was forwarded to the Team Customer Portal, and I was offered a position as a student worker in that team. Yay!”
