Real Estate Career Day / 25 April 2023

This year the 29th edition of the Real Estate Career Day (RECD) will be organised. This is ‘the’ biggest real estate event for students in the Netherlands. The yearly event is organized by the practice association BOSS of the department Management in the Built Environment at the Delft University of Technology.

This year, the RECD will be hosted at the Faculty of Architecture of Delft University of Technology. This event will give you the perfect opportunity to get insights in the current world of real estate. During the day students are given the possibility and are stimulated to get in touch with different real estate companies.

Every year, about 200 (real estate) students from different educational institutions across The Netherlands are brought together with more than 30 real estate-related companies. Would you like to make yourself known to reputable real estate companies or do you think you are the talent that should be noticed by every company? Make sure to sign up for the RECD 2023!

To make this day possible, the RECD 2023 is supported by the most prominent real estate-related study associations and educational institutions from the Netherlands.

ESCAPE THE ORDINARY / Theme 2023

The theme for the RECD 2023 is Escape the Ordinary The theme involves several striking developments that will have a major impact on the future:

  • Circularity and sustainability: climate change is affecting the built environment. Governments and municipalities are setting more and more targets and regulations for buildings and business to comply with. Circularity and sustainability are important topics when it comes to climate change, and they also feature in the current students’ curriculum.
  • Digitalization: The digitalization of society has been accelerated by the pandemic, such as working from home and smart home technology. These changes will have a lasting impact on the future. Also, other technologies such as self-driving cars and smart sensors will have an impact on the future.
  • Glass ceiling: the social barrier preventing women from being promoted to top jobs in management still plays a role these days. How do companies respond to this?

 

During this day you will gain insight into future career opportunities within the real estate sector that meet your ambitions from different perspectives.

The RECD will contribute to your personal transformation within the current real estate world by providing insight into the work of these companies. Your personal program will include business cases, business interactions, a business market and possibly 1-on-1 conversations.
