Session Plan
Session Goal
Equip trainees with a realistic understanding of the job search process and what is expected beyond technical proficiency. Clarify how HYF can support them, and where its boundaries lie. Set the foundation for professional self-presentation and awareness of the Danish job market structure.
Guide trainees to understand how their CV and LinkedIn profile should work in harmony to present a complete and professional image to recruiters. Provide tools, examples, and hands-on practice in critiquing and improving their online presence.
Your Preparation (Before Session)
1. Familiarize Yourself with Materials
Thoroughly read the same preparation as the trainees.
2. Review Responses to the "Career Status" Survey
Before the session, check submissions in the team Slack channel or survey tool.
Use these responses to:
Tailor examples to trainees situations
Identify trainees needing more support
Initiate relevant 1-on-1 conversations
3. Prepare Slide Deck
Include:
Summary of key soft vs. hard skills
Overview of Danish employment structures (Union, A-Kasse, Contracts)
Highlights and characteristics of Danish workplace culture and society.
4. Set Expectations Clearly
Be ready to clarify:
What HYF can support (mentorship, feedback, referrals, skill-building)
What HYF cannot do (guarantee job placement, write applications for trainees, legal employment advice)
