A practical workshop for Repatriated professionals with expert HR guidance
About this Event

Looking for a job in Armenia and want to improve your CV and cover letter? This CV and cover letter workshop in Armenia is designed for repatriated professionals who want practical, hands-on guidance on creating stronger job application materials for the local job market.

Following our Employment Bootcamp, we heard a clear demand for more focused workshops with more time for practice. In response, we created this session to help participants strengthen one of the most important parts of the job search in Armenia: writing a clear, competitive CV and cover letter.

The first hour will focus on theory and expert insights from an HR professional experienced in working with diaspora and repatriated talent. Participants will learn what makes a strong CV and cover letter, how to structure them effectively, how to highlight relevant experience and transferable skills, and what employers in Armenia are really paying attention to.

The following two hours will focus on guided practice, giving participants the opportunity to work on their own CVs and cover letters with support and direction.

By the end of the workshop, participants will leave with stronger application materials, clearer direction, and practical advice they can apply immediately in their job search in Armenia.

This workshop is ideal for repatriates in Armenia who want to improve their CV, write a stronger cover letter, avoid common application mistakes, and increase their chances of getting interviews.
