INTEC inaugurates its 2026 Talent Fair
More than 30 companies are participating in this event, which becomes a networking platform for students, graduates and the general public to access job opportunities.
SANTO DOMINGO. - El Instituto Tecnológico de Santo Domingo (INTEC) inaugurated its fourteenth Talent Fair this Wednesday, March 25, an event in which more than 30 companies from different sectors offer multiple vacancies to young professionals, in addition to presenting workshops aimed at developing skills for the workplace.
During the ribbon-cutting ceremony that officially opened the event, INTEC Rector Arturo Del Villar emphasized that the academy promotes these types of initiatives with the goal of creating networking spaces for highly trained young people, in an open call to the public.
“Each year more companies participate in our Talent Fair, and that reflects the quality of the human capital we train at INTEC: professionals who respond to the demands of the productive sectors,” said Del Villar.
Likewise, the Vice-Rector for Research and Outreach, Rosario Aróstegui, held a prior meeting with executives from the participating companies, in which she expressed that “at INTEC we understand that training does not happen in isolation, but in connection, dialogue and collaboration.”
In this regard, Aróstegui highlighted the projects through which INTEC connects with the employer sector, such as the advisory committees of the Academic Areas, where training programs are constantly reviewed; the Learning Factory program, in which students develop solutions to real problems of companies; and INTECnología, the flagship innovation and knowledge event that generates high-level spaces for exchange between academia, business and society.
He also highlighted the institutional focus on strengthening STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) careers as a key axis for training the talent that the country demands and its articulation with the productive sector.
