Career Advancement

The Career Advancement services are for people looking for work, no matter what their level of experience is. They help alumni showcase their skills and find jobs that meet their expectations.

The goal: finding the right job for you 

The Jobs/Careers team is here for Icam engineers who are looking for work or preparing to do so. The team assists engineers with the basics of job searching and helps them:

• Explain their goals and motivations
• Highlight their skills and experience
• Find the right ways to communicate

  I was a wreck when I got to the workshop after being let go. The team really raised my spirits, got me back on track and gave me useful tools and methods. (Loïc L.)

A day of coaching

The one-day Career Advancement session is held for a group of about fifteen engineers of all ages. What to expect: 

• Interactive workshops led by the Jobs/Careers team to help engineers self-reflect and become aware of their strong and weak points
• A presentation on recruiters’ expectations, given by an expert from a recruiting agency

  The coach advised me to shorten my CV so it would be more specific and concise, and stand out more. She gave me tips for communicating simply and directly with my network. She taught me how to better sell myself. (A. W.)

During the session, engineers can also meet and talk with alumni from other class years and with different professional backgrounds. It’s a great opportunity to strengthen and take advantage of the Icam network.
