Turning the switch to future: HIK (today HIS Industries) at the Odenwald Career Information Days 2026
From 19 February, it's that time again: HIK GmbH (today HIS Industries) is bringing a buzz back to the classroom at the Odenwald Career Information Days (OBIT).
Since 2008, eighth and ninth grade students in the Odenwald region have had the opportunity to learn first-hand about training and study opportunities at regional companies.
With over 40 years of experience, HIK GmbH is one of the established companies in the electrical industry and offers a wide range of career paths.
From our training positions as mechatronics engineers, IT specialists, or industrial electricians to our expertise in cable assembly or switch cabinet construction. In two 45-minute workshops, we provide insights into our training occupations and areas of expertise.
It's not just about theory, but about real-world practice. Our workshops offer the opportunity to get to know training occupations in a very concrete way. That's why we have hands-on technology in the classroom. Some things are easier to understand when you test them yourself.
Through the obit-online.de portal, students can find out in advance about all participating companies and their training and study opportunities and register for their desired workshops before the winter break.
Schule am Sportpark – 19. February
Georg-Augustus-Zinn-Schule – 05. March
Oberzent-Schule – 10. March
Obits is the first direct contact with companies in the region for many young people. Here, young talents can channel their energy in the right direction and get to know HIK GmbH as an innovative employer. Whether as an IT specialist who prefers digital to electrical impulses, or as a machine and plant operator who ensures that everything runs like clockwork, we offer a wide range of training opportunities that are equipped for the future.
This post was originally published under the brand HIK GmbH. Since the merger of HIK GmbH and HIS Renewables GmbH, both companies are now operating together under HIS Technology GmbH. The business areas are now operated under the names HIS Industries (formerly HIK Solutions) for industrial and cabling solutions, and HIS Renewables for solar and energy solutions. Therefore, earlier company and brand names may still be used in this post.
