Yes, during the fair I had the opportunity to talk to a representative of Phillips, who offered me the opportunity to do an internship in the Insights & Analytics department. The position was selected based on our conversation, during which we discussed my interests and previous experience.
TALENT DAYS: No wonder Talent Days was a #PerfectMatch! How is your internship experience so far? Is it good?
OLGA: I really like the job. I think the team is well-coordinated and always offers support, which is very important at the beginning of a career. The analysis department is a great support for the marketing department. So I can develop in both of these areas and I am incredibly happy about it.

that you have real opportunities to develop in what you're interested in. Olga, thank you very much for the interview and good luck in your further career development!
Olga's story can definitely inspire and motivate! Participating in the Talent Days job fair is not just scrolling through job offers, but real face-to-face conversations - with recruiters. What's more, as you can see - by taking part in the Talent Match program , you increase your chances of finding your dream job or internship even more.
From a recruiter's perspective, or some advice from the person on the other side of the table.
We know what this story looked like from Olga's perspective, but let's try to take on the role of a recruiter! The perspective of the other side can help you present yourself effectively when meeting potential employers at job fairs and... not only.
We asked Ula Osipuk from Philips to share her observations on recruitment.
TALENT DAYS: Hey Ula! Phillips hired Olga for an internship in our Insights & Analytics department. Was there anything that you felt made Olga stand out from other candidates?
ULA: Hi! That's a really tough question. During the fairs, recruiters talk to hundreds of candidates all day long, from morning to night. In Olga's case, the situation was a bit easier because she took part in Talent Match. This initiative gives us more time to get to know the other person. Ania, my teammate, was talking to Olga at the time. After the meeting, she came to me and said: "Ula, I have the perfect candidate for you for the Insights & Analytics team!"
Olga is incredibly motivated and committed. Although she and Ania were talking about a completely different position, Ania immediately associated her with this specific position. We had Olga's CV and her contact details, so the next day I contacted her to arrange a meeting with her potential manager. After the meeting, Olga did something she always recommends to students during trainings - she took the initiative and sent a thank-you email after the interview. It was great! Ultimately, she was chosen for the internship out of the two best candidates.
TALENT DAYS: Talent Match has once again proven to be the key to success! We are happy that this program is so rewarding for both parties. Could you share some tips on how to apply for positions effectively?
