Dear Students,
last month we were able to host a CV check in corporation with MyFuture where our experts Cheyenne and David checked our students Resumés and gave insider tips for applications in the Netherlands.
We want to thank MyFuture for the great collaboration and all attendees for signing up.
The Board of 2019/2020
On January 16th our long-time partner CMA CGM opened its doors to us yet again and welcomed us to their offices to offer us an insight into the working life of their legal department. Our members were treated to an highly interesting case study and got to showcase and practice their legal skills in working with a real-life case. A tour of the offices allowed our members to get a taste of what their future could look like and CMA CGM provided us with an exciting presentation of their company.
What our members especially valued was that we got to meet currently-employed Alumni of our own Masters, including Cathérine van Ameijden, a TTLA Alumna herself, who was kind enough to help us organize this visit and function as a contact person and share her own career path and provide inspiration.
We also got to meet the current legal intern whose position one of our attendees will be taking over starting March.
A big thank you to CMA CGM to this interesting and motivating company visit and we are very much looking forward to meeting again on March 12th for our Career Day. Thank you also for the internship oportunities and support to our Masters program
