In need of career advice? Come to the Career Lab

Radboud University alumni can come to the Career Lab in the centre of Nijmegen from September with questions about their careers. Whether you have graduated decades ago, or need advice at the start of your career: all alumni are welcome.

Drop by without any obligations

Every first Tuesday of the month, you can drop by the Career Lab in the Latijnse School in the morning. Here you can talk to a career coach from Radboud University. You will discuss your challenges together. Alumni with the same kind of questions will be paired up and continue working together.

More information about the Career Lab

“Alumni succeed in finding their first job, but what about after that?”

Jeroen van den Hoven, career coach and initiator of the Career Lab: “Most students find their first job soon after graduating. And if that becomes difficult, our Career Service team offers help to recent graduates, with, for example, personal advice and all kinds of training courses. But we notice that the doubts and questions mainly come afterwards. Is this indeed the direction I want to take? How do I develop myself after this first step? And what if much further on in my career I want to do something else? With the Career Lab, we hope to help alumni, even if they have already graduated for some time.”

The Latijnse School

The Career Lab is in the Latijnse School in the heart of Nijmegen. As a gift for its centenary, Radboud University received this national monument opposite the Stevenskerk on loan from the municipality. Various services and activities will be offered here over the next eighteen months.
