Insights into professions and work at the district administration building
In the Groß-Gerau district, 32 students participated in the nationwide Girls' Day and Boys' Day. The young people, aged 10 to 16, gained insights into various career fields within the district administration.
Exchange with the administrative leadership
To kick things off, the participants met with District Administrator Thomas Will and First Deputy District Administrator Adil Oyan. During a discussion, the young people were able to ask questions about tasks, career paths, and daily work at the district administration building.
Personal topics such as hobbies or career aspirations were also discussed.
Insights into many specialist areas
Afterwards, the young people dispersed to various departments of the district administration. There they gained practical insights into areas such as vehicle registration, emergency response, public health, building management, and education and schools.
Other departments such as IT, personnel development, the immigration office, and the foster care service also participated in the day of action.
Career guidance and prospects
The aim of Girls' Day and Boys' Day is to show young people career opportunities at an early stage and to break down traditional gender roles. The district administration offered direct insights into daily work life and the opportunity to exchange ideas with professionals.
The event concluded with a joint feedback session in which the participants described their impressions.
