News / Are you also coming to the North?

Colleagues from BD and YP Your Partner speak to hundreds of students on behalf of Innovatiecluster Drachten at Bedrijvendagen Twente. For two days each year, they are informed about the possibilities of internships, graduation places and, of course, attractive jobs in technology. As many as 150 companies will present themselves. All the students have to do is respond to the best offers.

Career Opportunities

With us, of course, that's a great story about career opportunities in the high-tech manufacturing industry in the Northern Netherlands. An unknown world for most students, except for a few Northerners who are studying in Twente. ’’That's why it's good to be at this fair,’’ says BD's René Ferwerda. He and his English-speaking colleague speak to numerous students to inform them about the high-tech companies at Innovatiecluster Drachten. In between, students try out the Hololens, brought to them by YP Your Partner. ,,Many students are excited when they hear what we do. They immediately understand the career benefits of our collaboration.''

High Tech Safari

The high tech safaris, specially designed for students where they are introduced to the Big 5 of high tech, attract their special attention. Study association E.T.S.V Scintilla immediately registered as interested. On Friday, March 3, during the evaluation of the Bedrijvendagen Twente, the study associations will once again be made aware of our high tech safaris.

Star Wars

In exchange for contact information, the students had a chance to win a Star Wars robot BB8 Sphere. You operate it with your smartphone and take the first careful steps in augmented reality. At the end of the fair, the robot went home with Carin from Information Sciences.
