Trainee-speed dating: Young people find their dream job!
The search for training positions is the focus of today's trainee-speed dating in the phenomena in Lüdenscheid. On February 11, 2025, pupils have the opportunity to get in touch with over 60 local companies. The event, organized by several institutions, offers an important platform for young people who want to orient themselves professionally. The motto "Current, data and come together" underlines the intention of enabling direct encounters between young talents and potential employers.
The professional advice of the employment agency emphasizes the essential importance of training for the life path of young people. Michael Herget from the KAOA explains that these events help to secure training positions and to find the right applicants. "In the past two years, 40 % of the participating companies have completed training contracts after the speed dating," reports the expert. This shows the chances of success that events offer for both sides.
application options and company offers
The participating companies present a wide range of entry opportunities. The offers include a free iPhone, events, training trips, bonus payments, takeover assets and special discounts in fitness studios. Young people are encouraged to bring application folders or profile in order to leave the company a lasting impression.
Since the event does not require registration, the students can easily take part in the speed dating. The conversations are limited to about 15 minutes, which gives young people the opportunity to leave personal insights. The representation of almost all professional fields - from commercial and technical professions to nursing professions and dual courses - makes the event particularly attractive.
demographic change and training commitment
Despite the current economic situation, the training quota remains stable. The employers' association Lüdenscheid observes a balanced training: 76 % of the companies plan to maintain their training activities, while 9 % are striving for expansion. These numbers are particularly noteworthy when you consider that many companies are under pressure due to demographic change. In the next 3 to 5 years, numerous employees will retire, which underlines the need to win new specialists.
"Despite economic challenges, the training landscape in the Märkischer Kreis shows a stable situation," said the employment agency. This could also be related to the commitment of the employment agency and other institutions that continuously work to revitalize the training market. The next opportunity for interested young people to increase their chances of an apprenticeship will be offered on February 18 in Iserlohn.
Overall, the trainee-speed dating shows that young people are actively supported by targeted measures and events on their way to the professional world. The focus on personal encounters could be crucial for securing training positions and strengthening the regional labor market.
With these aspects, the importance of events such as the trainee-speed dating becomes clear, which act as an interface between training seekers and companies in order to successfully design the transition from school to profession.
