It can take time to find your feet as a ‘newbie’ in the workplace.
Experience Work Day is a global initiative giving young people exposure to the world of work!”

With the Experience Work Day we give young people the future they deserve

Ensuring training and development for the new generations is what allows talents to find their own way, and companies and economies to grow: we believe that this is an integral part of our mission within the world of work.

With this in mind, starting in 2017, The Adecco Group’s offices around the world are simultaneously opening their doors to young students with the aim of inspiring and orienting them, preparing them for their entry into the world of work and helping them imagine their professional future. This is the Experience Work Day: the global orientation initiative that we conduct in a single day to offer, to about 9,000 young people in the world, a useful compass to guide them in their professional choices, through the direct involvement of over 4,000 HR experts.
