DSSV Career Fair for German Language Students – February 2015

In 2015 the DSSV held its first German Language Career Fair for German language students in Wisconsin . 

German companies that hire candidates with proficiency in the German language were present to meet with and advise high school and college students about working for a global enterprise.  Colleges and universities offering German programs and study abroad programs were also represented. 

Presentations by and video interviews with college graduates now utilizing their knowledge of German to pursue careers in business, science,  engineering and the arts gave students insights into how their German language education can be applied to a successful career.

The Career Fair was attended by over 250 high school students and afforded these students a unique opportunity to understand their options with regard to studying German at the college level, study abroad programs, internships and ultimately the careers available to them upon graduation.

We want to thank all whose efforts made this first ever endeavor by the DSSV a huge success.  Our special thanks go out to Michael Koch from Carroll University , who organized this excellent event.

More about this event is available on Facebook.  Also watch the DSSV website and German Career Day Facebook page where we will announce the next Career Fair.
