Trainees recruit trainees - What does it depend on?

Trainees and students are the perfect ambassadors to address and convince the young target group - Generation Z. Short videos created by the trainees themselves and shared where they are - namely on social media - can work wonders. Authentic, genuine insights into the company are the key to convincing potential young applicants. And your trainees know exactly what their generation wants: Insights and background information on the working atmosphere, corporate values and culture, getting to know the team and information on the application and training process. No one can embody this more personally and better at eye level than your trainees themselves.
