Bridging the generational gap: is today’s job market still attractive?

From A to Z: how big is the generational gap? How does this gap reflect on today’s job market? Accountancy Europe and the European Students’ Forum (AEGEE-Brussel/Bruxelles) are organising an extraordinary event to: i) listen to young professionals of all backgrounds, and ii) open the floor for an honest exchange between different generations on today’s work values.

In this event, we aim to

  • explore expectations on today’s job market – how does it look from generation to generation?
  • share experiences on how to improve the professional world

Whether you’re seeking inspiration or simply eager to meet people from diverse career backgrounds, this event is tailor-made for you.

Join us for lunch afterwards, from 13:00-14:00 CEST.
