"The combination of two of the top recruiting organizations working together will result in an exemplary event that will provide a unique opportunity for attendees to meet high profile scientists and gain careers information and advice."

The Naturejobs Career Expo Düsseldorf will promote global career opportunities in science, medicine and engineering, be it in industrial research, research organizations or academia. It will present the best opportunities from the best organizations: public, private, national and international. Jobseekers can meet with potential employers actively recruiting to fill vacancies.

The Naturejobs Career Expo Düsseldorf joins Naturejobs Career Expo Boston, which will occur on 20 May 2015, and Naturejobs Career Expo London, occurring on 18 September 2015.
