Placement And Career Information

LUISS Guido Carli does not follow an Indian-style campus placement system where companies arrive at the end of the course and directly place students into jobs. Instead, LUISS uses a European career-service model built around career guidance, employer events, internships, workshops, job opportunities and student-led applications.

Career Support Available

Support area	What students can expect
Career guidance	One-to-one advice for CVs, interviews, career direction and job-search planning
Application workshops	Support for CV writing, job interviews and professional communication
Employer events	Career days with companies, law firms, banks, consulting firms, NGOs and institutions
Internship support	Administrative support for eligible curricular and extracurricular internships
Job opportunities	Relevant openings may be shared through university career channels
Alumni and networking	Students can build contacts through events, associations and professional sessions

Employability Context

LUISS highlights strong employment and career-service outcomes in its business and finance rankings. For example, its Corporate Finance master's was placed in the Financial Times Masters in Finance pre-experience 2025 ranking, where LUISS reported a 94% employment rate three months after graduation for that ranked programme.

Students should read this as programme-specific evidence, not a promise for every course. Outcomes depend on degree choice, language skills, work authorisation, internship experience, academic performance and the student's own application effort.

Internship Route

Internships can be an important part of the LUISS experience. The university can help with career preparation and administrative activation, while employers make final selection decisions.

Students should prepare early by:

• Checking whether the programme includes a curricular internship
• Asking how many credits, if any, are linked to the internship
• Preparing documents in English and Italian where useful
• Attending career events before final semester
• Applying to multiple employers rather than waiting for one option
• Building evidence through projects, societies and part-time work
• Understanding student visa and residence-permit work rules

Strong Career-Focused Areas

LUISS career support is especially relevant for students in:

• Finance and corporate finance
• Management and consulting
• Marketing and business analytics
• Law and legal services
• Political science and public policy
• International relations and diplomacy
• Economics and research
• NGOs, social impact and international organisations

Practical Advice For International Students

International students should not rely only on English if they want local Italian-market roles. English-taught programmes are helpful, but Italian language skills can widen options in part-time work, internships, networking and daily life.

Students should also check visa rules before accepting paid work or internships. Some internships may be curricular and handled through university processes, while other work may count under residence-permit limits. When unsure, students should ask LUISS offices or qualified immigration advisers before starting.

How To Improve Outcomes

To improve career results at LUISS:

• Start career preparation in the first semester
• Use career-service appointments, not only online job boards
• Attend employer events even before applying
• Build Italian language confidence
• Target internships linked to the course
• Keep academic performance strong
• Develop a clear story for why Rome, LUISS and the chosen field fit together
• Track application deadlines for international employers early

LUISS can provide a strong professional environment, but final placement outcomes depend on active preparation and realistic market targeting.
