The <a href=\"\/johancruyffinstitute-2026?page_id=41528\">Johan Cruyff Institute<\/a> will again be an <strong>academic partner<\/strong> of the event and is offering, exclusively to students and alumni, the possibility to attend the fair and have a pre-arranged job interview with attending companies.<\/p>\n<p>At last year\u2019s edition, over 300 students and alumni of some of the world\u2019s leading postgraduate courses in <a href=\"\/?cat_ID=23\">sport management<\/a>, including those from the Johan Cruyff Institute, travelled to Lausanne to meet recruiters from a wide selection of the most renowned sports organizations.<\/p>\n<p>The line-up of recruiters was made up of world-class organizations: adidas, CAA Eleven, City Football Group\/Manchester City FC, FIBA, FIFA, Freeride World Tour, Genius Sports, IMG, Infront, the International Olympic Committee (IOC), mycujoo, Nielsen Sports, Penceo Sport, Soccerex, TEAM Marketing and UEFA all came to look for talent at the event. We expect these and many more to be at this year\u2019s edition.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the event, the recruiting companies will announce the professional profiles they are interested in, so that candidates can submit their CVs through the <a href=\"https:\/\/iworkinsport.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iWorkinSport website<\/a>. Those selected will then be invited to a 20-minute job interview with the company, without any intermediaries.<\/p>\n<p>The Job Fair consists of two main activities running in parallel: the Exhibition, where the interviews, meetings and networking opportunities take place; and the Conference, where attendees can attend extremely interesting and useful panel discussions and company presentations. This year\u2019s panel discussions are <em>\u201cIndustry Trends: what sports organizations are looking for\u201d<\/em>, <em>\u201cGet a Job! &#8211; Find your opportunity; make your CV stand out; what (not) to do at a job interview; and more&#8230;\u201d<\/em> and <em>\u201cThe Value of Education in the Sports Industry\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iworkinsport.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iWorkinSport<\/a> is the perfect scenario for companies and HR professionals to exchange knowledge and explain what it means to work at their companies before an interested and qualified audience. As a novelty in this second edition, the recruiters will also participate in a special networking session and a dinner with the representatives of the academic partners.<\/p>\n<p>Students and <a href=\"https:\/\/cruyffalumni.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">alumni<\/a> of the Johan Cruyff Institute who are interested in attending the fair must register through the event\u2019s website. <strong>The first 40 to do so will be able to attend for free and the rest will get a 50% discount<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"responsive-video\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/i-JwsStwHkk\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen> frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; allowfullscreen=&#8221;allowfullscreen&#8221;><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class='programa-destacado-post'>\n<h3 class=\"especiality-mini-title\">OFFICIAL MASTER&#8217;S DEGREE IN<\/h3>\n<h2 class=\"programa-maxi-title\">Sport Management Online<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thevelop-posts\">\n<article>\n<p>The Johan Cruyff Institute and Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona (UAB) collaborate to jointly deliver the Official Master\u2019s Degree in Sport Management linked to the Faculty of Economics and Business of the UAB.
