FAQ

We have 3 building blocks:

1. Get to know yourself: How well do you know yourself? What sparks your interest? Which working environments do you identify with? Based on five questionnaires, you’ll learn about your strengths, interests and job preferences. Our scientifically validated algorithm translates your results into possible job functions and company cultures that naturally fit your profile. All nicely made visible in your myCareerCompass section.

2. Learn and build your brand: How do you write a convincing CV? How can social networks, such as LinkedIn, help build your professional career? And how to prepare for that dreaded first job interview? These are some examples of our courses that you can find at the myCourses section of your myCareerCompanion account.

3. Get introduced: And it gets even better. You can even choose to be contacted by our partner Crossbridge, who will match your profile with concrete job opportunities and introduce you to your future employer.

myCareerCompanion can be used by last year students and by employees during their whole career. We have different journeys for youngsters who are still studying as well as for people with experience. When you’re still a student or when you just graduated and have no experience yet, just fill in your study. When you already have gained some experience, fill in your work experience and you will be guided to the right track automatically.

Yes, we can help you with concrete job opportunities. When you register at myCareerCompanion, you fill in your profile settings and there you can tick the option that you want to be contacted by partners of myCareerCompanion.
