UW/H Career Service – Services for students
We’ll put you in touch with companies!
Your go-to place for a successful start to your career
Our Career Service supports you from your very first semester with advice, information, workshops and events covering everything to do with starting your career and career planning. Make the most of our services and network partners to pave the way to your dream job.

Job fair “Heiratsmarkt” – the careers evening at UW/H
The job fair is a career event specially designed by UW/H – separate from the major recruitment fairs. It offers you the opportunity to network with companies from various sectors – on the university’s premises and therefore in a very informal atmosphere. You’ll have a unique chance to meet managing directors, HR professionals and staff from renowned companies and discuss potential work placements, part-time student roles or entry-level positions.
Optimal preparation for working life
Through our wide range of workshops and events, you’ll gain the know-how you need to get your career off to a successful start: in our Excel courses, you’ll learn all the tips and tricks that you can put into practice straight away in your day-to-day studies and work. Our experts are also happy to help you with matters relating to tax returns and insurance. In addition, a professional job application photo shoot takes place every semester, which UW/H students can attend free of charge.
