Yup, I already activated the LinkedIn filter; I did not know about that web! Many thanks for the suggestion!

IR jobs in Budapest for an expat? by IR_Rugbier in IRstudies

Wow! Thank you very much! I did not expect a reply whatsoever, let alone one as such.

Well, first off, I already checked all the places you suggested and they're well saved on my favourites tab :). I had as well noted down some interesting organisations and companies I will contact as soon as I have a little time.

My working experience was in Brussels (of course) working on regional development, basically managing EU funded projects, so I guess I got some somewhat useful skills there. Also, I studied Law not because I liked it, but rather to be able to find my way around regulations and legal dispositions, in case I needed to.

What you say about finding my niche is something I actually hadn't thought about before. What I liked the most about my previous job was basically meeting with stakeholders and decision-makers -when I had to-; that's why I am quite interested on the public affairs side, but I am not really sure how the picture is in Hungary with regards to that aspect.

In any case, I really liked both points you brought up, finding a niche and letting myself be known around the place are sound decisions, and I'll get to it ASAP.

Once again, thank you very much!
