I am an enthusiastic and creative individual with extensive international HR experience. I'm passionate about helping people find meaningful work.

As a newcomer and a job seeker it was overwhelming to come to a country and start all over again with no network or social support. Luckily, I found JobOn and it was a great deal of help for me - I got to organize a lot of events and establish new connections and got to be a part of a big supportive community.
