Employment and Apprenticeship Week: March 6-14, 2025
This year, Université Bourgogne Europe has decided to combine the two events ‘Semaine de l’emploi’ and ‘Journées de l’apprentissage’ into a single format. As a result, these two events have been transformed into the Semaine de l’Emploi et de l’Apprentissage (Employment and Apprenticeship Week), jointly organised by the SEFCA and the PFVU, which will take place from 6 to 14 March 2025 at Polytech and the Salle Multiplex in Dijon.
The aim of the event is to bring together students, recent graduates, work-study students, recruiters and professionals to boost the chances of finding a job and gain a better understanding of the needs of the job market.
This year, the emphasis will be on discovering the professional field of research, R&D and innovation. Students will be able to find out about the structures and companies recruiting in these fields, as well as the careers and jobs on offer.
