After Daniel Malenkovic successfully completed his apprenticeship as a dialog marketing specialist at the IT Center in February 2024, we were delighted to welcome another graduate in June: Yasin Kalem.
After three years of hard work, he too has finally achieved his goal. But what was it like for him? What did he do with us, how did he feel and what’s next for him?
That’s exactly what we asked him and we take a look at his journey with us in a one-to-one interview.
ZKI “Training” Working Group in Wolfenbüttel
The ZKI working group “Training” has invited to a joint meeting in Wolfenbüttel from May 14 to 16, 2024. As trainers in the Service and Communication department at the IT Center, we were of course there to exchange ideas with 10 other universities from all over Germany.
We dealt with the following questions, among others:
“How does training work at other universities? What is the recruitment and induction process like? What do modern job interviews look like for us?

He already reported on his experiences in Malta in an earlier blog post. To allow others to benefit from his findings, he shared them at the Europe Day.
