THEMSELVES AND RECRUIT

GRADUATES, NEAR-

GRADUATES AND STUDENTS, by interviewing potential candidates pre-selected by the employer or Career Services. Prospective employers can get to know candidates and review CVs for open positions.

BUSINESS PRESENTATIONS AND

TESTIMONIALSBusiness presentations are an excellent way to provide interested candidates with information about your organization including OPEN POSITIONS, CAREER

ADVANCEMENT AND THE

SELECTION/RECRUITMENT

PROCESS.

They serve to strengthen the relationship between the business world and the university. Moreover, through testimonials you can present business cases and experiences of particular interest.

BUSINESS GAME A business game is an innovative MANAGERIAL

TRAINING tool, which envisages one or more players (or teams) in competition with one another to achieve the same goal. If you are interested in proposing business cases, our students,

near-graduates and/or graduates, divided

into small groups, will have a chance to PUT THEMSELVES

TO THE TEST demonstrating their

problem-solving abilities and offering innovative solutions.

TURBO SESSIONA turbo session is a 40-MINUTE, session whose purpose is to FOSTER CONTACT BETWEEN

STUDENTS AND BUSINESSES, creating real interaction with the latter thanks to its dynamic and interactive structure. Turbo sessions start off with a short presentation of the employer, highlighting most required profiles and available opportunities for career advancement along with entry-level jobs.

A lot of emphasis is placed on SELECTION PROCESSES AND THE

MOST COMMON MISTAKES MADE

DURING INTERVIEWS. There is then a Q&A session during which employers answer questions from participants, followed by mock individual and group interviews.

SPEED INTERVIEWSStudents and graduates have 5 MINUTES TO INTRODUCE

THEMSELVES TO THE EMPLOYER,

WHO WILL OFFER FEEDBACK IN

3 MINUTES. The employer can ask for the CVs of the most interesting candidates. In a few minutes the two partners, employer and candidate, exchange information before proceeding to an initial selection. The recruiters' purpose would be to detect affinities that later can be explored more in depth. The technique used is the ELEVATOR PITCH, which tests a candidate’s ability to quickly create a positive impression. An hourglass counts down the time: once it is up the employer CAN ASK FOR THE CV.

CAREERS AND COFFEE

Do you like the idea of your managers spending the start or the end of their working day at our campus together with our students? Would you be interested in organizing informal events in order to reach a wider audience? These get-togethers are the best way TO PRESENT

YOUR BUSINESS AND LAY THE

GROUNDWORK FOR FUTURE

ADLABThe Adoption Lab (AdLab) project was set up with the aim of PUTTING

STUDENTS IN TOUCH WITH COMPANIES and of helping them understand more about the business world

from the inside. A unique way to improve one’s CV, network and obtain hands-on experience. Leading companies adopt the students selected by the project, offering them the chance to work on projects and to be mentored and supported in their professional growth and development. AdLab is open to all those studying for a master’s degree or who are in the fourth year of a single-cycle master’s degree program in law.

OPPORTUNITIES ABROADLUISS offers its own students further OPPORTUNITIES TO STUDY

AT PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITIES

ABROAD over and above traditional student exchange

programs. Those programs offer students a unique opportunity to add an international flavor to their CV and embark on a stimulating experience in a different cultural and university context, broadening their academic and personal horizons. The programs are generally devised in order to enable master’s degree and single-cycle master’s degree students to obtain a certificate or qualification in addition to their LUISS degree. Other programs allow bachelor’s degree students to spend an academic year, a semester or the summer period abroad to earn credits for their study plan.

LUISS boasts solid and long-lasting cooperation with the partner universities of the programs concerned, UNIVERSITIES RECOGNIZED AT

INTERNATIONAL LEVEL AND WITH A STRONG GLOBAL

IDENTITY.

ERS LABThe Department of Business and Management requires students to take a compulsory 4-credit Ethics, Responsibility and Sustainability Workshop.

The courses offered, which are mostly hands-on, seek to EQUIP STUDENTS WITH THE TOOLS

NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND THE SOCIAL CONTEXT

AND ENHANCE THEIR BEHAVIORAL AND PRACTICAL

SKILLS through team work and a stimulating exchange of ideas and opinions designed to improve one’s CV but also to experiment and put oneself to the test through engagement informed by sharing, reflection and solidarity.
