On March 12, a career event called Mõttevedu took place at TTK University of Applied Sciences, bringing together logistics students and employers from the field. The event, organized by third-year distance-learning students of the Transport and Logistics curriculum, aimed to support students in finding internships and building professional networks.
Now held for the third consecutive spring, Mõttevedu is, according to this year’s organizer and TTK logistics student Kaisa Lumiste, a highly important event. “Mõttevedu offers students the opportunity for direct interaction with companies, as well as valuable professional contacts, knowledge, and practical experience. The goal of the event was achieved—several students found internship opportunities as a result of Mõttevedu, and at least one participant secured a job in their field,” she added.
Participating companies from the logistics and transport sector included DPD Eesti AS, Adduco OÜ, NG Logistics OÜ, and Eesti Raudtee. The event also involved Rakvere Ametikool and Valgamaa Kutseõppekeskus, bringing in young people who are still considering their field of study.
The program combined networking, practical learning, and entertainment. Participants could test their knowledge in a quiz and solve practical case studies prepared by companies, offering opportunities to apply subject-specific knowledge and broaden their perspectives. In addition, attendees could try out VR headsets and capture fun moments in a photo booth.
The event featured Irene Annus, a pioneer of salary awareness in Estonia and author of the book “Palgateadlik läbi elu” (Salary-Aware Through Life), who shared practical advice on job applications and interviews. Participants also had the opportunity to learn about master’s study options at Tallinn University of Technology.
