Dual career advice at HFU

Career couples welcome - we arrange job contacts

Often, a new job doesn't just start for one person − the whole family moves to a new city and region together. Both the career start and the partner's job search have to be mastered. The aim of the Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg Dual Career Advisory Service (SBH) is to help career partners find their way quickly and easily after moving to the region. The Dual Career Advisory Service is the central point of contact for dual career couples and networks with relevant employers both inside and outside the universities.
