When looking for work you can visit the district labour offices, which are
attached to the Department of Labour of the Ministry of Labour and Social
Insurance, in order to register, get information and guidance and even placement
in a job. You will need to show your passport or identity card on the first
visit. You can register electronically on the website of Department of Labour.

Cyprus has many private employment agencies. Some specialise in finding work
for people from abroad, and of those some allow registration and the filing of
CVs in the relevant website.
You can also contact the Cyprus Human Resource Management Association for
information about employment agencies, and also the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce
and Industry (KEBE). Newspapers, which you can find by visiting the official
website of the Republic of Cyprus, offer another good way of finding work. The
Public Employment Service of the Department of Labour has an Internet system of
registration for employment and for job searching through the EURES website.
Lastly, making a personal approach to companies which may be on the lookout for
personnel with particular specialisations can also be worthwhile.
