UKEN IS HIRING

APPLY BEFORE AUGUST 28TH, 4 PM

Uken 2016

UKEN is western Norway’s second largest culture festival and is held every other year. Over 1000 volunteer as fUKENtionaries to create 17 days of parties and fun! The UKEline-up will be packed with everything from wild concerts and shows, to world record attempts, the kid’s day, elderly’s day and much more.

Central to UKEN is the UKErevue. Every UKEN we set the stage for our own show, which has won the national prize several times over the years. UKEN has a tradition for revues that has roots stretching back to 1947, with many famous artists starting their career here, such as Jo Nesbø and Raske Menn.

In addition to the revue there are many unforgettable memories created here, with concerts in the UKEtent

2

and in the Aula. Great artists have visited UKEN over the years, such as Backstreet Boys, Kygo, Veronica Maggio, 50 Cent, The White Stripes, Klovner i Kamp and DJ Tiesto. The magical atmosphere created in the UKEtent and the Aula when some of the world’s biggest artists enter the stage is absolutely priceless for both the guests and the fUKENtionaries.

The revue and the concerts are massive experiences, but the best thing about UKEN is the broad specter of the programme and the tasks of the fUKENtinaries. We have something to everyone’s liking and three weeks of fantastic experiences makes UKEN a cultural experience you don’t want to miss!

DEAR FELLOW STUDENT! The UKEfamily is about to grow again and you can’t miss the opportunity to join this amazing adventure – UKEN 16!

I can give you few spoilers: fun experiences, exciting challenges, unforgettable moments and friends for life. I wish my writing skills were as great as my dedication, so I could make you understand how much fun this is – so I can further convince you NOT to miss out on this!

UKEN is by far the largest subsection in the student union, and in this round of hiring we’re growing to 1000 fUKENtionaries. We’ll work together on one common goal; making Western Norway’s the second largest culture festival To pack the UKEline-up full of wild concerts, revue, world record attempts and kids- and elderly days, we need people full of creativity and dedication! The best thing about UKEN actually isn’t the festival itself, but the road leading up to it. You will become a part of an amazing fellowship.

As of the moment you’re hired you can be happy that your student life is changing from grey to green!

Whether you’re a math genius, a clown or a bartender, you will find something to your liking in the UKEfamily.

One of the greatest things about UKEN is the variety of the organization. It’s not a question if UKEN is for you, but what you want to do in UKEN! So whether you’re a long time NHHS’er, or a curious first grader, I think you should keep reading and find the position for you!

It’s not without reason that hordes of previous fUKENtionaries return to the festival time after time, to feel that UKEjoy once more. This is something you don’t want to miss out on!

I’m looking forward to talking to you at the stand!

UKEgreetings Mette Hole UKEboss

With his green personality and powerful body, he will show all the city’s inhabitants just what UKEN is all about!

We will therefore party, build and play with the bus until it beams of our personal touch.

I’m looking for a middle manager and 14 fUKENtionaries. In PRarrangement nothing is impossible and we have the freedom to create something genuinely unique. Join us in making the best PR-events UKEN has ever seen!
