A very positive experience

Last 7th March, the IQS School of Engineering organized in Barcelona for the 12th consecutive year, the IQS Enterprise Forum, inviting enterprises from different industrial sectors and activities, with the participation of companies such as DOW, HENKEL, BASF, COVESTRO, GRIFOLS, etc.

MORCHEM, represented by our HR Department, participated actively at the forum, with the purpose to bring our company closer to last grade or master level students of Chemical Engineering and present the professional profiles we are looking for.

The enterprises, a part from table tops offering information about their companies, were able to participate in round tables to discuss the different strategies used for attracting talents.

In general, the experience was very positive and we could give IQS students visibility for MORCHEM and provide them direct contact to our company.
