Pho­to­nics needs orientation

The majo­rity of employees in the Opto­Net clus­ter are highly qua­li­fied skil­led workers. The trai­ning quota is only 5%. For the coming years, many com­pa­nies are expec­ting fur­ther per­son­nel growth and a neces­sary increase in their trai­ning acti­vi­ties. Here you will find sug­ges­ti­ons on how to get clo­ser to this goal.

Here you will find inspi­ra­tion to focus your mar­ke­ting acti­vi­ties on a young tar­get group and bring a breath of fresh air into your recruiting.
