“We are very pleased to host such an important representation of Italian and multinational companies, a practical demonstration of our strong connection to the business world, aimed at providing real job opportunities to our students,” says Marco Regoli, Head of the Career Center at RBS.
From early in the morning, students had the opportunity to visit stands from companies such as American Express, Autostrade per l’Italia, Bvlgari, Toyota, and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection to apply for open positions, introduce themselves to recruiters, submit their CVs, gain interview experience, improve their communication skills, learn about recruitment processes, receive valuable advice directly from HR professionals, and, most importantly, get to know the companies up close.
“The candidates are all very well-prepared, with diverse backgrounds. For us, it is extremely important to be here at the Career Fair; we are here to recruit those who, in the future, should be our leaders. What are we looking for? Flexible roles that can ensure the same level of performance at various levels across different business lines. So, we’re not just looking for sector-specific profiles for a particular business, but individuals who can maintain the same standards at multiple levels and across different areas of the company,” says Fabrizio Maltese, Full Lifecycle Recruiter at Amazon.
The day was enriched with training and inspiring moments, such as Oracle’s talk on how to stand out in the era of AI-managed hiring, as well as sessions on talent attraction held by Amazon and Fendi, and personal branding strategies presented by Manpower.
RBS’s commitment to student career development is constant throughout the year. The goal is to shape talents capable of being competitive, innovative, and making a positive impact on both companies and society as a whole. Moreover, RBS prepares students through practical training, focusing on the latest trends and needs of the job market, and ultimately connects them with companies.

Additionally, more than 190 activities are organized annually, including Business Practice Labs, Company Shadowing, and Company Meetings, designed to prepare students and bring them closer to companies. As a result, 70.7% of RBS students receive job offers before completing their Master, and 78% experience a salary increase during their studies.
