Get help with your applications and CV
It can be very hard to tell and write down what you can add to a company and what motivates you to apply for a specific position. And that’s what we can help our student members with.
Also, there are different approaches when you are applying for a student position or an internship.
An internship is more a learning process, in opposition to a student position. That’s why you need to put emphasis on, what you want to learn or gain from the workplace experience.
Writing a good application
IDA Career Counselling division proof-reads a large amount of applications every day, and the Career Consultants have sound experience in their fields, explains Marina Storgaard.
There are a lot of things you can do, to give a good impression of yourself as a candidate. We know what works. Both from experience, but also on the basis of surveys, we have in-depth knowledge of what recruiters look for in an application and in CVs.
A good advice is to build your CV and application in a highly structured way. Writing a good application and building a structured CV can be difficult, so it can be a good idea to contact us for further advice.

A good entrance to the Danish job market
A good student job or the right workplace experience can have a large effect on your future career. First and foremost, it is about using your theory in practice, but it is also a clear advantage that you have tried working in a workplace environment.
We see that many candidates start their career in the same workplace, where they worked as a student assistant. Just as having a successful internship can be the transition into a full time job opportunity, or can give you the professional network you need for future references.
