How exhibitors should prepare their outreach
For training centers and recruiters the approach should be concise. Bring clear materials that explain entry requirements and curricular paths. Produce short demonstrations that showcase technical skills or training outcomes. Coordinate on-site activities with local partners such as AMS Salzburg to attract school groups.
Use the Bewerbungsstraße to offer CV checks and appointment slots for follow-up recruitment. Capture contacts digitally to enable systematic B2B follow up after the fair.
