As part of the microcredential educational programme for retraining and social adaptation of internally displaced persons, classes aimed at developing practical competencies for employment are ongoing.

On 9 May 2025, Olena Petryk, Head of the Career Development Centre, conducted practice-oriented workshops on modern job search strategies. The participants worked through the key stages of employment: from analysing vacancies to preparing a personal brand.

Particular attention was paid to:

• – writing a resume that attracts the attention of an employer;
• – creating a cover letter as a self-presentation tool;
• – using online resources for job search;
• – common mistakes and ways to avoid them.

Participants received practical advice on how to adapt their documents to different types of employers and vacancies.
