Just do your own thing really... by yourself. If you good, jobs will come to you. I work 14 hours a day... no marketing whatsoever. Word of mouth... Unfortunately i cant work with people so i am one man show but i do 6 digit turnover a year, its hard, stressful but in the end its worth it. If you are a creative person - only this way you will realize your full potential... working in a company in most cases cuts all your real potential and you always work by the book. But working alone forces you to fight and always look beyond the horizon. I got your CV, thanks... but you already got my answer. Good luck.

In Cyprus I find it Hard , Small Country , and Competitors are too many out there , I Do some work online for clients from the us and Canada and other countries , but rates sucks because of the Indian rates on the internet , a job that takes me a week , I'm Not able to ask for more than 120 Euro for an example , while Indian can do it for 40 Euro , so calculating everything together you get a number that sucks sucks

Besides I do Not Speak Greek and I can not afford to learn Greek at the moment , since we Pay rent , and other expenses , and my wife does not work as well , her family passed long ago and she got too far relatives , believe it or not , me and her both feel like we are on another planet , otherwise thanks for the advice

Greek lessons are free, there are also free lessons in anything like plumbing, electrical etc. you can ask at the job center in your area or social insurance and if you are in Limassol Lanition highschool i think is where the lessons are for Greek, the school next to McDonalds in Makarios Avenue. Also in Limassol behind Jumbo is a place where they do adult learning for free, and they even pay you a small amount since you are unemployed, in Greek it is KENTRO BARAGOGIKOTITAS, so if you ask at the job center and say that to them they can help you. As far as job is concerned if IT is your thing, mombard all the IT companies with your CV, google IT or computer companies in Cyprus and just email your CV to everyone. I know what its like to be without a job and its not easy out there at the moment, so just apply to everywhere. I know you probably have already if it has been a year but dont give up apply like crazy to everywhere and also try cyprusjobs.com and all the agencies, GRS, Select, Staff Matters, AP Executive etc. Good Luck

Well there is a KENTRO BARAGOGIKOTITAS in Nicosia aswell so you can go there. Forget about getting any money from social insurance a person could die in this country waiting for the state to provide
