Hello, I'm Svitlana, a Ukrainian who has twice experienced displacement due to the war started by Russia against Ukraine - first in 2014, when I left my home, and again in 2022, when I had to leave once more. Now, propelled by the challenges of war, I stand in Germany. It's not just a new life; it's a test, and yet, I feel the strength within, affirming that I can navigate and conquer this journey. With a professional background spanning over 15 years, ranging from roles as Environmental Engineer and Project Manager to leading a charitable foundation, I've gained expertise in the nonprofit sector. While currently expanding my skills in Human Resources, I'm also looking forward to leveraging my project management experience. Embarking on a new phase of my career journey in this foreign land, I am eager to serve as a mentor, providing guidance and insights to help others successfully navigate their transitions. Having accumulated nearly two years of experience in Human Resources at a Global Renewable Energy company , I am keen on enhancing career prospects and fostering professional growth for fellow Ukrainian refugees and young talents seeking opportunities in Germany.

My session with Svitlana was super helpful! Not only she has asked proper questions and shared the current status of the job market, but also has given me actionable advice and boosted my confidence overall. I feel equipped to take the next steps in the process of job search. Moreover, she was very kind and engaged during and even after the session, and I highly appreciated Svitlana's intention to help. Highly recommended. Thank you, Svitlana! I'm already looking forward to our next call.
