At the Company Catwalk, you present your company in a 60-second presentation. Score points with a creative presentation to female students and graduates and give them an exciting starting point for subsequent discussions. The aim is to increase the quantity and quality of visitors to the information stand.

Examples of a convincing presentation:

• Emphasise USPs: What makes your company unique?
• Share corporate culture: Show values, way of working, team spirit
• Contribute personal experiences: Success stories or inspiring anecdotes
• Explain your field of activity: What your team works on and why it is exciting

What to avoid:

• Only emphasise benefits: Good salary, lots of holidays, etc.
• Remain impersonal: unapproachable presentation
• Stay too abstract: Avoid empty phrases without tangible examples

Please note the following regarding your appearance:

• Please arrive 5 minutes before the start on the right-hand side of the stage
• Only 1-2 persons per company (2 microphones are available)
• Programme in alphabetical order, companies from A-Z
• 60 seconds per company (countdown in the background)
• Company logo is displayed in the background
• Own presentations (PPP, slides) are not allowed
• Tools such as products, prepared posters etc. may be used
• Language: French or English

Please contact kimberly.lippuner@talendo.ch by 9 of March 2026 if you do not wish to take part in the Company Catwalk.

CV-Check involves examining and optimizing a student's curriculum vitae (CV) or other application documents. To boost their confidence before future interviews, students can simulate a job interview. The mock interview puts students face-to-face with a recruiter for 15 minutes.

A counselling session lasts 15 minutes with 5-minute breaks between each appointment. We will allocate the counsellors tables and visitors appointments to the slots on site (now via an online tool).

If you would like to offer CV-Checks, please let us know the number of people and their contact details by 09.03.2026 at kimberly.lippuner@talendo.ch.

We recommend a maximum of 2 – 3 people per company from the following areas to participate in the get-together: Line managers, HR managers, professionals or potential team members/supervisors.
