Colliding Talents- CERN Alumni Careers Fair at Third Collisions

CERN is not only a laboratory for groundbreaking scientific discoveries but also a breeding ground for talented individuals who go on to make significant contributions in multiple fields.

The upcoming CERN Alumni Third Collisions event, scheduled for February 9-11, 2024, is set to feature a new and exciting addition - the first-ever Careers Fair.

From Thursday afternoon until Monday morning, the CERN's Main Building's "pas perdus" and mezzanine areas will transform into a bustling marketplace of opportunities. Several prominent companies, including event sponsors DoraHacks, Sky Italia, ASML, and Argusa, will be eager to connect with both current CERN employees and alumni.

One notable highlight of the Careers Fair is the participation of companies founded by CERN alumni. These entrepreneurial ventures include Ion Biotec, Terapet, Pickletech, Advantics, and Natural Cycles. This unique aspect provides attendees with the chance to explore career paths forged by individuals who also gained professioanl experience at CERN.

The presence of Eiroforum companies further enriches the job-seeking experience. ILL, ESO, and Eurofusion/ ITER  will be offering insights into opportunities beyond the borders of CERN. Additionally, organisations like STFC-ISIS and Medaustron will contribute to the diverse array of career possibilities available to those attending the fair.

For CERN alumni and those completing their contracts at CERN, the Careers Fair presents an opportunity to engage with recruiters, gain a deeper understanding of available job roles, and tailor their career paths to match their profiles. 

The fair is not limited to alumni; anyone currently working at CERN is welcome to attend. The public space of CERN will host this dynamic event, creating an inclusive atmosphere for networking, exchanging ideas, and exploring the next steps in one's professional journey.

If you're a CERNois(e) eager to take the first step towards your post-CERN endeavours, mark your calendar for the Careers Fair. From Thursday afternoon to Monday morning, seize the opportunity to meet recruiters, ask questions, share your CV, and forge connections that could shape the trajectory of your career.

Don't be shy – embrace the chance to navigate the diverse landscape of career options at the CERN Alumni Third Collisions event.
