Job Searching in Denmark: An International's Story

Event Description

In recent decades the labor market in Denmark has seen an increase in people with international backgrounds. However, many internationals struggle to get a footing and land a job that matches their skill level.

Career consultant Kate Dahl will use her own experience being an American in Denmark as a starting point for giving you advice on how to go about tackling finding work in Denmark. Through the story of her successes and failures, she will focus on the importance of having intercultural and interpersonal communication skills, helping to equip internationals with strategies to communicate their value to Danish companies. Kate will also talk about how best to protect international’s rights in the Danish labor market while giving job-seeking advice and sharing her personal story.

This event addresses international's difficulties in finding employment in Denmark. Career consultant Kate Dahl will take you through her own history and knowledge of what works and what doesn’t. The talk touches on themes such as how to best brand yourself as an international, communicate your value to Danish companies and protect yourself in the Danish labor market.
