Business Career Fair Berlin: connecticum on 27 April 2027
At the connecticum Business Career Fair in Berlin, students, graduates and experienced professionals meet employers who are specifically looking for people in business and management, and discover concrete career and entry opportunities.
The connecticum Business Career Fair is the first day of connecticum 2027: Tuesday, 27 April 2027, 12:00 to 19:00, Convention Hall at MOA Berlin. It is about entry and career paths in business and management, from consulting and controlling to sales, marketing, procurement and HR. On 27 April we specifically invite students and graduates of business, economics and related subjects. Visitors from all fields are welcome on all three days; your ticket is valid for the whole fair.
Are you looking for your way into consulting, finance or marketing, want to compare employers or take the next step with work experience?
The Business Career Fair is about personal conversations: about specific vacancies, entry routes and what a job really involves.
What to expect at the Business Career Fair
Conversations at the stands
At the stands and in one-to-one conversations you talk directly to company representatives from HR and specialist departments. Ask what a working day in consulting or controlling really looks like – you learn more than from any job ad.
From internship to senior position
Employers at connecticum present vacancies for every career stage, from internships and theses to trainee programmes, graduate entry and senior positions. Ask about entry routes in your field, such as consulting, finance or sales.
Apply without a cover letter
Experts check your CV right at the stand, in German or English. Talk about your internships, a semester abroad or your thesis, and ask about the application process, from case interviews to assessment centres.

Data and analytics
Business and data: KPIs, reporting and business intelligence, for example with Excel, SQL or Power BI in controlling, marketing or sales.
IT consulting
Business and technology: advising companies on introducing new systems and processes, between the business side and IT.
If you want to go deeper into technology, the IT Career Fair on 28 April is your day; your ticket is valid for both.
