Search strategy
Start with the role, not only the language
A strong search combines your profession, experience level, location and preferred working arrangement. Use English-language role titles and compare the full requirements of each vacancy.
Tourism and services
Hospitality, travel, retail and customer-facing roles often value English together with other useful languages.
Skills still lead
Relevant experience, tools, results and availability remain more important than using a broad language-only search.

Search plan
A practical five-step search plan
Keep the process specific enough to generate relevant results, but broad enough to discover adjacent roles.
Choose two or three role titles
Use the job titles that best match your recent experience and include common English alternatives.
Select realistic locations
Compare Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, Famagusta and remote options based on commute and availability.
Read the language requirement carefully
Distinguish between English as the working language, English as an additional skill and roles that also require Greek or another language.
Adapt your CV
Match your summary, skills and strongest results to the role instead of sending one generic CV everywhere.
Create a focused Job Alert
Combine a role keyword with a category, location or employment type so new alerts remain useful.
