The Career Success Centre would like to invite you on Tuesday, 9 December 2025 to the Guest Speaker Series Seminar: Mastering the Interview: From Nerves to Confidence. The seminar will take place at UNESCO Amphitheatre, between 11:30-12:30.
This interactive session with Marianna Hadjiandoniou will focus on how to navigate job interviews with authenticity, confidence, and self-awareness. Through real examples and open discussion, students will explore what to do — and what not to do — during an interview, how to structure a strong self-presentation, and how to make a lasting impression on employers.
Rather than a traditional lecture, this will be a dynamic conversation designed to help participants understand the mindset behind successful interviews, develop their personal brand, and build confidence in showcasing their strengths.
The session will be bilingual (English and Greek).
