Eventually, I had the opportunity to work at an outstanding Audit firm in Cyprus. At the end of the internship, I was offered a permanent position.

One of the most helpful and valuable steps you can do before graduating and jumpstart your career? Doing an internship is the answer.

The MIS job fair organized by the CSC was a turning point for me. I met this amazing company there and we really hit it off. After the event, they reached out, offered me an interview, and I ended up accepting a job offer from them. Working on developing an LMS program using Moodle was such a cool experience. It not only boosted my tech skills but also gave me a real feel for how things work in the industry.

The Career Success Centre (CSC) afforded me this opportunity, and my experience in this capacity has not only sharpened my work ethic and skills but also afforded me a means to pay my tuition fee. For these, I am deeply grateful.

The CSC, especially its very warm, kind, and amazing team has a beautiful way of making one believe in one’s self and abilities. They even go further to create avenues that enable one to thrive and excel in one’s career as a student or graduate.

I have been privileged to have attended several empowering workshops and events, organized by the CSC. Such as a one-on-one chat session with a CSC Staff where I shared my career aspirations and received relevant advice, the CV workshop, Career fairs with top companies in attendance, Company visits, etc.

The CSC social media pages introduced me to opportunities that ordinarily I may not have had access to as an international student. For example, under the auspices of Femme Forward-Empowering Women in Tech (https://femmeforward.eu/) I have been able to gain specific industry skills and knowledge in Cloud technology (AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner). I was also a participant in their Future Startup Founders Programme–organized by Cyprus Computer Society.

The Highered platform has also exposed me to many opportunities that could serve me as a recent graduate. I am so thrilled for the future.

Stella Lazarou, Accounting (BSc), Class of 2022

The most important thing for a student is his/her future career based on what they study. I still remember my fear of going outside from the University for employment. One day, I had a call from Career Success Centre (CSC), they informed me about the internship opportunity that our university offers. Of course, I did my internship at EDEX-Educational Excellence Corporation. Then, I worked as a student assistant, part-timer and now full-timer at the University of Nicosia Computer Center as a Web Developer Officer. I gained a lot of experience the last two years as I have been constantly working, and it has all been possible because of the team of CSC. You can imagine that I have graduated with work experience based on my field of study. This is what everyone dreams to achieve.

Sofia Christodoulou , BSc Psychology, Class of 2021

Career Success Centre (CSC) is one of the most helpful and important Departments at the University. Throughout the academic year, there were countless training sessions organised by the CSC, which gave me the opportunity not only to enhance professional skills related to the main focusses of the career pathway, CV & job interview as well as LinkedIn profile, but also gain useful and insightful information on some topics which are paid less attention to, in particular, the emerging era of remote work.

Also, as an international student, and given the limitations and barriers international students may face, the centre went the extra mile to help me gain a better understanding of the island’s job market and available internships and job opportunities. Even during the summer holidays, I was able to maintain my communication with the director of CSC, Dr. Maria Siopacha, and CSC Senior officer, Ms. Melina Andreou by email and have my questions and concerns clarified via prompt responses. I am very appreciative of their continued dedication and their supportive attitude, regardless of whether you are local, international, currently studying, or a graduate!

My name is Efpraxia Olymbiou, and I’ve graduated from the University of Nicosia with BSc in Marketing. The idea of working in a company related to my studies was something that scared me. Everybody has that. Through the Liaison Office, I had the opportunity to spend almost 2 months in the summer of 2020 in Marketway, which is known for being a great player in the Marketing industry. Despite the difficulties that have been due to the pandemic, I managed to win even some things that will help me later on in my career. The Liaison office is willing to give opportunities to help the students during their studies and even after their graduation to develop themselves.

Michalis Papallis , BSc Computer Science, Class of 2022

My name is Vassilis Pelekanos and I am an MBA graduate of the University of Nicosia. I am grateful to the Career Success Centre staff, as they have helped me a lot in my career so far. As a young graduate, when I was interviewing for the organisation I now work for, I had previously contacted the Career Success Centre, who arranged a meeting with me to advise me and prepared me appropriately.

Also, thanks to the Career Success Centre, I did an internship to get acquainted with the work environment during my student years. I believe that the work done by the Career Success Centre gives great value to the university itself, being the supporter of every graduate in his/her future career.

Vassilis Pelekanos, MBA, Class of 2021

I am Frouh Esaie from Cameroon, currently I am completing an MSc in Electrical Engineering at the University of Nicosia where I have also completed my Bachelor.

I have opened a pending application for my PhD so that I can directly start with my research upon completion of my Master.

The Careers Success Centre has been assisting me throughout my academic journey on the island at many levels. They have assisted me in finding my very first part time job in a local company where I was working as an Assistant Technician fixing Cameras for Nikon and Panasonic.

I had the opportunity to attend several seminars (on CV writing, Job interview, Stress management, Self-Confidence, etc.) and that allowed me to gain necessary skills, become professional and have a smooth transition from the university to the job market.”

Frouh Esaie, MSc Electrical Engineering, Class of 2021

I would like to express my appreciation to all personnel of the Career Success Centre, for all their suggestions in the preparation for the job search. I have been with them since my second year of studies, and they were always ready to answer my queries. I attended all Career Success Centre webinars that helped me to understand better how to stand out from many candidates. In one of the webinars, I found out about virtual internships, Forage, which was highly recommended by the Career Success Centre, and I have used it three times afterwards. Forage has virtual tasks from several well-known companies and every student can try to solve the tasks like it is a real working day at the company. I included the Forage certification in my CV, (as Maria Siopacha suggested) and immediately it caught the attention of the potential employer that allowed me to get the first interview with my dream company. Definitely, in job hunting, a lot depends on our personality and our skills, although, all recommendations and kind support from the Career Success Centre can add valuable knowledge and direct us to the right path. 

Oxana Livitcaia , BSc Accounting, Class of 2021

By the first time I visited the Career Success Centre for support, while I was working at University’s Computer Centre as a student assistant, Ms. Melina Andreou immediately showed interest in me and on how she can help me with my career.  She supported me in building a strong CV and on developing career skills.  Going forward, the Career Success Centre team used to call me frequently to inform me about various employment opportunities and discuss with me if I am interested in these, which approach helped me a lot. I encourage other students to explore the services offered by the Career Success Centre. 

Michalis Antonoudiou , BSc Computer Science BSc, Class of 2019

The Career Success Centre (CSC) Department has been an incredible help to me. The bearings of the department cannot be mentioned without Mrs. Maria Siopacha, Director of CSC. She has made prodigious efforts to be a part of my career journey providing support even after graduation.

The department hosts seminars on resume construction, interview processes and job fairs giving me a better chance of understanding the job market and getting a job, especially for an international student like me. This enabled me network with employers and other job seekers providing the opportunity to network and improve my communication skills.

To me, UNIC CSC is arguably one of the University’s greatest benefits.

Charis Obi, BBA Economics and Finance, Class of 2021

While completing my thesis, I decided to seek an internship to gain some practical experience in my field. As I sent in my CV to various companies to no avail, I came into contact with Maria Siopacha from the Career Success Centre (CSC). I had a virtual meeting with Maria and Melina Andreou to discuss my internship plans. They assisted me immediately with various resources on writing a presentable CV & on interview skills, by contacting various energy organisations to find me a position, arranged for me an interview with Energyintel after the company was impressed by my newly formulated CV and my academic reference letter. So, the burden was not only on me. I eventually got the summer internship, and it has been an eye-opening experience. I’ve gotten to learn and see the internal workings of an energy company and its daily operations. I’ve also gotten a chance to assist in these processes, an experience I wouldn’t have gotten in the classroom. I’d like to thank Maria and the CSC for their support!
