In order to inform and inspire young students about IT and a possible apprenticeship with us as an IT specialist for system integration, we were at the career fair at the Antonius College in Neunkirchen, which took place there for the first time on February 27th.
In addition to receiving general information or asking specific questions, the students had the opportunity to take a closer look at one of our 3D printers in action, as well as the inside of a laptop and an old desktop computer. Our trainees explained the technology and functions to them in more detail - and of course they were allowed to tinker with it themselves to get a first feel for the technology.
