About

What is IT-Hekuma?

IT-Hekuma is a recruitment event held on Tampere University’s Hervanta campus where ICT students and companies meet. This annual fair is open to any company looking to strengthen its organisation with top young talent from the ICT field. It also offers an excellent opportunity to showcase your employer brand. The fair creates a direct link between students and companies in the sector.

Whom will you meet at the fair?

The main target groups are Tampere University’s ICT students, early-career researchers and recent graduates. Specialists in information and digital technologies are in very high demand, and competition for experts in new technologies and interdisciplinary skills will only intensify.

Besides ICT experts the fair is also visited by our school's knowledge management, industrial engineering, and electrical engineering students. For students, the fair is a golden opportunity to build contacts with industry. They appreciate hearing first-hand from employers about the wide range of career paths in ICT. Alongside full-time, fixed-term and part-time roles, students actively look for internship and master’s thesis positions.

Why take part?

IT-Hekuma is a unique way to raise your profile among future professionals and make your company known. Organisations rarely get the chance to present themselves right in the university corridors—this is an opportunity you don’t want to miss.

Prepare in advance

On the event website and in the fair magazine you can read profiles of all participating companies and pick up useful tips for the day.
