Training Fair 2026: Lots of Discussions at the EICHLER Stand

Our trainees themselves played a key role in our trade fair presence. They didn't just wait at the stand to answer questions, but actively approached visitors.

That made it easy to strike up a conversation. Many young people wanted to know, first of all, which training programmes EICHLER offers, where the company is based, and what opportunities there are for joining the company.

According to our Head of Training, Richard Wegele, there was particular interest in the fields of electronics technicians for equipment and systems and IT when it came to the individual career profils.

This gave the young people the opportunity to obtain first-hand information. They were able to ask questions about training on the spot and have them answered in face-to-face conversations.

As well as information on training, the exhibition stand also featured various games. These went down well with visitors and provided a relaxed way to strike up many conversations.

A new feature this year was the photo booth. It was used for the first time at the training fair and proved to be one of the highlights at the EICHLER stand.

Together with the games and the clearly laid-out stand, this creates an open atmosphere where information and personal interaction come together.

Training fairs give you a first impression. However, it usually only becomes clear whether a career and a company really match your own expectations once you've experienced day-to-day working life for yourself.

That's precisely why our training team would like to encourage interested young people to take the next step after visiting the fair: if a training at EICHLER sounds interesting, com ealong and get to know us for yourself through a work experience placement.

After all, gaining a first.hand insight helps you finde out which tasks suit you best, what day-to-day work is like, and whether EICHLER is the right training provider for you.

The many conversations at the training fair were a good start. Whether this will lead to new applications remains to be seen in the coming weeks and months.
