What are the dos and don'ts of finding a job in Hungary?

Priscilla

Hello everyone,

Where is the best place to start when looking for a job in Hungary? Is it better to job-hunt by directly contacting the company of your interest, or should job-seekers rely on a recruitment agency, for example?

Are there any unique aspects that job-seekers should consider when preparing their CV/résumé and cover letter? Should a photo be included?

Do you have any tips on interview conduct in Hungary? Are there any particulars, such as greetings or behavioural customs?

In you opinion, is knowledge of the local language or a regional language necessary to successfully apply for a job? What level of the language should job-seekers have mastered?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

I found the pay was not worth it for me.
Therefore have a lot of savings and will enjoy my half year there but work...the amounts I see of netto 1000-2000€ a month is a waste of my time.  I would rather travel, invest and study.
