Lausanne, International Career Day and Earth Hour
Posted on | March 27, 2010 | 2 Comments
Well, no connection between Career day and Earth Hour, but since the latter comes in 21 minutes, I have to remind you people to turn off the light for one hour, tonight.
Back to Lausanne and International Career Day. Impressed by the city, as always, not so impressed by the event. We went with high hopes and a ton of CVs, left with almost the same amount of CVs and no hopes whatsoever. For an event that was supposed to put together the world’s most important International Organizations, I say thank God for the freebies and the other companies that were present. UN, ILO has tiny little cubicles and usually did not offer any information whatsoever. What is more, were you to dare and ask for information, you would have probably got this precious little hint: check online, apply online. Gee thanks, thank goodness I came all the way here in order to hear that. NOW I know what to do.
Oh well, nice surprise though from the other companies that were there: Johnson&Johnson, Syngenta, Cartier, and many more. They would show you what internships are available, tell you when and where to apply and even take your CV. Nice.
With that being said, the weather in Lausanne was really nice, we had some awesome pizza ‘Chez Mario‘ and of course, a Starbucks cup (2nd one with the flowers) for my collection. Nice!
Now I have to turn this off. See ya!

Daca ai fost la Chez Mario din Av. de Montchoisi…:), atunci ai fost la o aruncatura de bat de apartamentul nostru (provizoriu, ce-i drept), noi locuind pe Ch. de Vermont.

Uhm, noi fuseram la aia unde se scrie pe pereti. Atmosfera putin dubioasa din cauza grafitti-ului care dadea impresia de gang si a celor care ne-au spus ca putem sa stam max pana la 3 ca dupa aceea inchid pana la 6. Pe de alta parte, pizza e dementiala, mai ales cea cu creveti. Cred ca noi am fost pe avenue de Bourg…am urcat un deal pana acolo. Altceva nu mai stiu, ca muream de foame
