Recruiting - TalentCenter

Everyone has talents - don't let yours go to waste! Everybody is endowed with different talents that are waiting to be discovered and further developed. ZU supports their students on this journey and offers a variety of opportunities to discover and further develop one's strenghts, interests and aspirations. 

Companies, organisations and institutions with a focus on economics, culture and politics have the opportunity to find young talents via the ZU TalentCenter and to recruit them for their organisation. 


On these pages we have therefore listed some ideas and possibilities for a collaboration that enables you to discover and connect with young talents.

Do you have any other ideas how we could potentially cooperate? We are always happy to receive your ideas and suggestions.

The job and career portal is completely free of charge for employers and enables you to find young talents and reach out to them. 


Exclusive posting of job offers

You can easily post your job and internship opportunities on Handshake via the following link: Handshake.

TandemCoaching Mentoring Programme 

As a practical expert in business, culture or politics, you have a wide range of professional experience and great networks that you can share with our students by being part of our mentoring programme and becoming a "PraxisCoach". Every student can choose a "ScienceCoach" (Academic Mentor) from the university and a "PraxisCoach" (Professional Mentor), with whom they discuss their personal and academic goals as well as personal development. Our students have access to a pool of available PraxisCoaches where they can find the perfect match, the pool is updated and extended on an ongoing basis. 


If you like to learn more about our TandemCoaching Mentoring Programme or like to mentor a student, we would love to hear from you (tlntcntrzd).
