The Long Night of Careers is a careers night organised by the Careers Centres of various Swiss universities of applied sciences and a few other universities (www.lnoc.ch). This event gives bachelor's, master's and PhD students the opportunity to spend an entire evening thinking about their professional futures. It is an opportunity to gather ideas, meet professionals in an informal setting, network and hone job hunting skills in a fun and enjoyable space.
There is a varied, interactive programme, including workshops on employment-related topics and professional activities, speed mentoring, information stands, a pitching challenge and more. The event is usually held in November.
Why should you take part?
- You will be supporting future graduates in planning their careers and building their professional networks.
- You will have the opportunity to network with students and other attendees such as mentors and professors.
- You can get to know a diverse group of students, each of whom has a unique skill set and personality.

Approximately 150 students, alumnae, alumni, mentors and experts gather for the Long Night of Careers each year. In 2019, the event was held face-to-face, in 2020 it was online and in 2021 it was face-to-face once again.
