"Give Me Your Hand" is a project of the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU), funded by the Movetia Foundation. The project involves the development and implementation of a career intervention to support graduates in their transition from university to working life.
We draw on the theoretical framework of Savickas' career construction approach and involve stakeholders from various stakeholder groups, such as students, career counsellors and HR managers. The intervention is used at universities in Switzerland and abroad and is supported by digital elements developed in collaboration with Department of Computer Science of HSLU.
Verena is a marketing professional and teaches various courses in marketing, statistics, and strategy in the Business Administration and Business Psychology programmes. In parallel, she is active in research in the fields of services marketing and management.
Domingo is a psychologist and lecturer. He teaches statistics and psychology courses in the Business Administration and Business Psychology programmes. He also engages in research, predominantly on psychology related topics.
Zorica is a Master's student in Business Administration with a specialization in People Management & Organisation at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences. In addition, she engages in research in different fields in her role as master assistant.
The project team in Lucerne is collaborating with professionals from five other universities on three different continents who will respectively implement the intervention programme at their universities.

The work on the project has started in September 2023. So far, a stakeholder network has been established and extensive desk research has been conducted. Based on this, the intervention has been outlined and will continuously be updated where necessary. Simultaneously, the recruiting has started as well and is still ongoing. In April 2024, the first interventions will take place. The pilot project is set to be terminated in August 2025 with the intention to incorporate it as a permanent programme into the offer of HSLU.
The intervention programme consists of five coaching sessions over a time period of approx. half a year. The first session is held in plenum at the HSLU facilities, while the next four sessions will be conducted online. Each session will last two hours.
