The season of career fairs is over and we just arrived from visiting Linköping University and their career fair LARM. We handed over the very pleasent job to our GKN colleages for the last career fair for this spring HotSpot in Karlstad. Besides visiting Linköping and Karlstad we’ve been attending career fairs at KTH in Stockholm, Chalmers in Gothenburg, LARV in Luleå. It has been so much fun to interact with you, and especially for me as a recent graduate and to get the chance to stand on the other side of the table and represent a company. We want to send out a big thank you to all of you who have been visiting our showcase, and we’re looking forward to see you joining us in the future. Don’t forget to seize the chance of becoming our next Global Graduates, the application closes this Sunday 17/2!

This short trip became a girls trip since it was me and my two collegues Emelie and Nina who joined. Now you’re probably wondering how we managed to split our small but yet powerfull tribe. The simple answer is that Wictor and Filip had to take another visit outside Sweden. However, we had a great couple of days in Linköping where we had scheduled a visit at Siemens Turbomachinery hosted by their graduates. We got the oppurunity to see their ultra modern AM facility and we learned about the major differeces between landborne gas turbines and airborne gas turbines, i.e. aircraft enginees. What is the big difference then? Firstly, the size but above all the requirements on part weight. It was indeed very fascinating to walk among gas turbines as big as a townhouse.

Hi there,

A new week full of possibilities has just arrived and my trainee colleagues and I kicked-off this week with an exciting visit from Volvo Cars Global Graduates. It is always as much fun to meet with other trainees from interesting companies all around Sweden to exchange experiences and to learn more about the different businesses. We did not only lecture about our cool products but we also was fortunate enough to have Peter Stommendal with us who spoke about the differences in business models within aerospace and automotive. It was an interesting take, which raised many relevant topics for discussion afterwards. Many thanks to Volvo Cars for visiting us! And we’ll see you soon but this time in Linköping where we’ll visit SAAB and together with their Global Graduates will learn more about the fighter jet JAS Gripen.

Pssst. Volvo Cars was very amused by the signs in Malöga since they still are printed in the typical Volvo font.
