Presentation: 
The project "Job Exchange" for young people (especially summer jobs), which started in 2007, is very successful. Aha asked all the companies and firms present in Liechtenstein (by email and letters), if they offer holiday and side jobs for young people. The media in Liechtenstein (two newspapers and a radio station) reported several times about the job exchange. From January till August 2008, 18 companies and private persons (babysitting etc.) announced about 20 summer jobs and side jobs. Young people could therefore ask aha if they want to receive an sms when a new job was being offered. From January till October the list (pdf) was downloaded at leas 2500 times from the aha website.
