02.06.2015: Labor Market in Austria/Vienna

For many people one of the challenges when settling in a new country is how and where to find a suitable job. One of the main obstacles is the lack of knowledge about the local job and labor market. How is the local labor market structured? What about the unemployment rate? What industries are operating in Vienna? What qualifications are local companies looking for? With this basic - but most essential - information it will get easier to look for a job and unfold your professional potential in Vienna. Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Mazal will explain all this and will be available for a Q&A session after his presentation. Registration for this event is required.
