Pop-up store in the Weserpark: Young people find their training position!

In the Weserpark shopping center, which offers a very special event by Saturday, young people can find out more about their professional prospects. Under the motto "Not without an apprenticeship in the summer holidays", the youth professor opened a pop-up store in which young people have the opportunity to deal with apprenticeships. Kejven, 16 years old, sits relaxed on a sofa and is waiting for a photo shoot. "I want to be a bricklayer," he says, looking around. Kejven has already completed internships in retail and kindergarten and has been in Bremen for six years.

his friends, Alman and Lucas, are also on site. While Alman, also 16 years old and pupil at the Wilhelm-Olbers High School, is still unsure about the craft profession he would like to learn, Lucas, 15 years old and student at the Julius-Brecht-Allee secondary school, has clear ideas: "I am interested in training as a system mechanic for sanitary, heating and climate," he says. A great offer in the pop-up store are the free application photos, which the two friends did not know at first. Kejven and Alman are thrilled when they learn that the Hairdesign Academy is on site to style the young people for the photos.

career counseling up close

The idea behind the pop-up store is not only to give young people information, but also to actively involve them in the design of their professional future. "Here you can speak directly to experts and find out about various training paths," emphasizes a representative of the youth professor. Teachers from Bremen's schools have already brought their students to the pop-up store to support them in the search for an apprenticeship.

Not only the career counseling is on site. The Hanseatic Chamber of Tax Consultants and the Bremen Chamber of Commerce have also set up information stands to offer comprehensive advice. Since around 450 training positions are currently vacant in the state of Bremen, the commitment of such institutions is urgently needed.

styling for the next step

The atmosphere in the pop-up store is characterized by anticipation and commitment. Negervan Mohamed, 33 years old, who is currently in retraining a hairdresser, styles Alman's hair for the upcoming photo shoot. Joe Nickel-Rhone, a student of communication design, takes care of photography and ensures that the application photos have a professional effect. It is important that young people start the application process well, and every well -staged moment counts.

The opening times of the pop-up store are Friday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. While the free application photos are available on Friday, you can only speak with the consultants on Saturday before the summer vacation begins.

The Weserpark thus becomes a hotspot for everyone who wants to work seriously on their professional future. If you don't have a training position yet, you should not miss this offer. The pop-up store is the perfect place to get inspiration and speak directly to experts. Every step into your own future is important, and young people will find the support they need. For Kejven, Alman and Lucas, visiting the pop-up store is a step in the right direction.

If you would like to learn more about how other regions have carried out similar initiatives, it is worth taking a look at the experiences in Coburg, where the youth professor was also active with a pop-up store on the marketplace and presented the training offers directly.
