Frequently asked questions

What will my company stand/speedmeet spot look like?
A wide table and power are available for each partner. If required, there are boards/whiteboards where you can hang posters, for example. You can set up your stand during the build-up. The scheduled one-to-one conversations (speed meetings) take place at the company stand. Or you move together with your discussion partner to one of the private consultation rooms. These are specially reserved for this purpose.

How many / what type of people should I come with?
We recommend coming with three people. Two people is the absolute minimum, because as a company you have a company stand as well as a separate programme of speed meetings. Does your organisation employ former Fontys School of ICT students? If so, we would like to ask you to bring one of them along to the Career Day(s). For our students, it turns out to be very valuable to hear the (work) experiences of former students. 

How do you contact students? 
Students register for the event via a registration app. Through this app, they can schedule a speed meeting with your company if they are already interested in advance and would like to be sure of a moment to get acquainted. They will come to your stand at the chosen time. A speedmeet lasts 10 to 15 minutes. The schedule of speedmeets will be sent to the lead person a day before the event. You and your meeting partner can go into a private room. These are specially reserved for this purpose.

Of course, students can also visit your stand spontaneously. Via the app, every student has a personal QR code. If you have had a good conversation with a student and want to follow it up, the student can have the QR code scanned and you will receive the contact details.  

What kind of students come to the Fontys ICT Career Day? 
Students from all semesters (both Bachelor and Associate degree) come to the Fontys ICT Career Day. There is an information market for information on different choices in their studies. And the company fair is there for students looking for an internship, graduate internship or job after graduation. For all students, it is interesting when side jobs are offered. 

Are all admission tickets for my colleagues arranged / How can I arrange a new ticket for colleagues who we will register later? 
A ticket should be created (no later than one day in advance) for all individual colleagues attending the Fontys ICT Career Day. The main contact person of each organisation regarding the Career Day has been asked to create these tickets. It is even possible to do this a day in advance, so that you can take care of the replacement in case of, for instance, pressure or illness. As soon as the main contact has created the tickets, those registered will receive a confirmation e-mail.  

What is the admission ticket for? 

• Entry to the event and receipt of a personal badge.  
• The ticket automatically creates an account for each colleague in the Walldo app. 
• Use the Walldo/app to scan the badges of students of interest to you. Afterwards, you will receive their details by e-mail. 

How do I use the registration app?
You will receive help on how to use the registration app during Fontys ICT Career Day.
