CSZ Management Workshop 2025 – Successful Recruitment

From September 24 to 26, 2025, the managing directors and authorized signatories of the CSZ locations in Calgary, Darmstadt, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich met at the traditional Hotel Erbprinz in Ettlingen for the CSZ Management Workshop. The focus was on intensive training in “Successful Recruitment” led by Doris Brenner. In several practical modules, participants dealt with key topics such as role, self-image, process design, and interview techniques.

What made it special was that the theory did not remain theory – it was put into practice right away!

With the support of real student applicants from outside the company, real job interviews were simulated. The immediate, honest feedback from the candidates created a valuable learning effect that could hardly be more practical – a real added value for everyone involved.

In addition to the intensive professional exchange, the supporting program also offered exciting insights:

• During a guided tour of the construction site of the Badisches Staatstheater Karlsruhe, participants gained exclusive insights into one of the largest cultural construction projects in the region.
• Another highlight was the visit to the Zoologischer Stadtgarten Karlsruhe. Zoo director Dr. Matthias Reinschmidt welcomed the group personally and provided fascinating insights behind the scenes and into the zoo’s dedicated species conservation program. The subsequent tour and the live polar bear feeding experience provided an impressive conclusion.

A big thank you to Ms. Brenner and everyone involved for three inspiring days full of exchange, practical insights, and shared experiences!
