On the occasion of the Employability Week<\/a> at the Autonomous University of Madrid, the Madrid Science Park and its companies have approached students and recent graduates to awaken their enthusiasm for the world of entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

\"job-fair\"With a stand at the Higher Polytechnic School and a motivational talk, students have been able to learn about the possibilities of employment and internships in the hundred innovative companies that form the Park’s ecosystem.<\/p>\n

With more than twenty vacant positions in PCM companies, the stand has been a meeting point for students specializing in biotechnology, computer science, biology, or chemical engineering.<\/p>\n

During the talk, the general director and the HR manager of the Park presented the most in-demand profiles and employment options for those who want to start their professional careers in a scientific-technological entrepreneurial environment.\"working-in-a-startup-01\"<\/p>\n

Alejandro Arranz, general director of PCM, did not want to miss the opportunity to remind students of the privilege they have in being part of an exclusive campus, where in a nearby environment there are highly prestigious research centers under the umbrella of the UAM+CSIC international campus of excellence.<\/p>\n

To illustrate his proposal, Jose Mar\u00eda Pinilla, a former student of the Autonomous University of Madrid who started as an intern in a small company installed in the Park’s innovative business incubator and currently holds the position of laboratory manager in the company, was invited to the presentation.<\/p>\n

\"working-in-a-startup\"Pinilla has encouraged future workers to believe in their possibilities and to train both in the classroom and in the business environment. In his case, having the offices and laboratories of his company Natac<\/a> on the same university campus has helped him complete a master’s degree and immerse himself in his doctorate over these years. <\/p>\n

Faced with the question from those present about whether to opt for a large company or an innovative SME, Jose Mar\u00eda presented a complete decalogue of the possibilities for personal and professional development offered by working in a small company: Proximity to senior management, direct contribution and involvement in the company’s growth, or varied and multidepartmental work, are some of them.<\/p>\n

Naturally, both at the stand and during the talk, young people with innovative ideas were encouraged to approach the UAM Center for Innovative Initiatives<\/a> to present their projects and materialize them into university start-ups and spin-offs that in the near future could be installed in the scientific-technological business incubator<\/a> that the Science Park operates on the same Cantoblanco campus.<\/p>\n
