China is the most populous country in the world. With the sheer size of the labor market, it is a challenge for young professionals and recent graduates to find a company where they fit. On the other side, it is equally difficult for companies to find the talent hidden in the ever-growing stack of CVs submitted for an open position. To overcome this issue, TRUMPF China partnered with Suzhou Chien-Shiung Institute of Technology to help students and young professionals bridge the employment gap within their project “Blooming Youth.” Since July 2020, the company has embarked on an education initiative to provide a series of teaching sessions to students. TRUMPF invites corporate managers and experts of various topics to share their experience and give students a glance at the future of their careers. So far, over 500 attendees for over ten sharing sessions have shown how effective it is to share knowledge and experience. TRUMPF China and Chien-Shiung decided to establish a long- term partnership agreement to continue to cultivate young professionals. The next round of the project has been planned to begin in July 2021 and TRUMPF China will continue to contribute to the local talents’ development.
