Completing an internship during your studies allows you to acquire essential skills to start building your professional profile and face an increasingly competitive labour market.
Through the Personal Career Advisor, the Career Service provides students with personalised support, from preparing their curriculum vitae to identifying internship opportunities aligned with their career ambitions.
A curriculum vitae is the tool that allows people to present themselves: their experience, skills, educational background and interests.
Writing a strong CV is therefore very important in order to make a positive first impression and encourage an initial phone contact.
The Career Service supports students, by appointment, in drafting or reviewing their curriculum vitae.
The portal allows students to browse new job and internship opportunities received by LIUC and to apply easily and directly for all opportunities published by companies in our network.
An internship abroad is an opportunity to enrich your experience and give your profile an international dimension.
The Career Service organises opportunities for students and graduates to meet companies in the LIUC network:
- On Campus Recruiting: company presentations followed by introductory interview sessions (speed interviews).
- Meet the Company: meetings with businesses to discover the professional profiles most in demand.
Once students have identified the company where they will carry out their internship, in Italy or abroad, they simply need to send an email to their Personal Career Advisor or to [email protected] requesting the start of the administrative procedure, specifying the company name and the contact details of the company representative.
The Career Service, in collaboration with the company, will prepare the documents required to start the internship.

Periodic workshops cover a range of topics related to job-search strategies, including, among the main ones: search methods, CV and cover letter writing, personal branding and managing a selection interview.
Final-year students and graduates may request an appointment for a one-to-one interview simulation in preparation for an interview scheduled with a company.
The service aims to work with candidates on their presentation, starting from the role for which they will be interviewed, in order to better highlight their experience and skills in relation to what the company is looking for.
Candidates will receive immediate feedback on how they manage the interview and gain a better understanding of the typical dynamics of a selection interview, so that they can handle it effectively.
The Talent DISCovery test is a behavioural profile analysis based on Extended DISC Assessment technology (used in more than 55 countries and translated into 70 languages). During the test feedback session, the Career Service staff support students in becoming aware of their natural and adapted behavioural style, helping them more easily identify their soft skills, strengths and individual areas for improvement. The tool is therefore highly useful for career orientation.
An action-learning programme developed by the IXL Center in Boston: it involves competitions between student teams working on an innovative project proposed by a client company. The winners receive certification from the Global Innovation Management Institute.
