Lange Nacht der Bewerbung Graz

The Long Night of Applications in Graz is Austria's leading job speed-dating event and has stood for a new and highly efficient approach to recruitment since its launch in 2017. This innovative format brings job seekers of all ages together with companies from all industries in structured, twelve-minute 'future dates' - focused conversations tailored to specific vacancies that significantly increase the likelihood of follow-up interviews or even on-the-spot offers. The event is part of a wider series that also runs in Vienna and online editions across Austria, underlining its nationwide reach and relevance. At the heart of the event are structured job speed-dating sessions where candidates meet hiring managers in focused conversations. The programme is complemented by practical career and application workshops where attendees learn to craft a concise professional pitch, receive guidance on positioning themselves effectively in the market, and benefit from CV reviews, templates, video resources and personalised expert feedback. The event showcases tangible career opportunities across a wide range of fields, including live vacancies, graduate schemes, IT roles, technical specialist positions, commercial functions, as well as advisory and support services related to applications, career planning and recruitment. The format ensures clarity on both sides and offers immediate feedback from employers, making it an efficient springboard to the next career move.
