Career Center at Central Asian University
Supporting Career Readiness, Employability, and Professional Development
| At Central Asian University (CAU) The Career Center at Central Asian University was officially established in March 2024 with a clear mission - to provide every student with equal access to professional opportunities and ensure that graduates leave the university as confident, skilled, and employable individuals. From its inception, the Career Center was designed not only as a student service office but as a strategic partner supporting students, alumni, faculty, and employers. Its vision focused on bridging the gap between academic learning and workplace expectations while fostering a culture of entrepreneurship, innovation, and lifelong learning. |
Online Career Portal and Career Advisor Services at CAU
A central feature of the Career Center’s ecosystem is the EduPlus platform, CAU’s online career portal. Through EduPlus, students can easily access job and internship vacancies, apply directly to positions, and schedule career advising appointments with the Career Center staff. The platform allows users to upload and manage their CVs, monitor application status, and explore professional development resources at any time. EduPlus has become an essential bridge connecting students with top employers, providing them with real-time access to career opportunities.

In addition to EduPlus, the Career Center maintains an active Telegram channel, where students can stay updated on new vacancies, internships, and upcoming events. The channel also serves as a knowledge-sharing hub, featuring articles and resources that help students strengthen their professional skills - from writing effective CVs and cover letters to performing successfully in interviews. These materials empower students to learn independently and apply practical advice when pursuing their career goals.
Beyond digital platforms, the Career Center continuously engages with students through workshops, training sessions, and mock interviews designed to enhance employability and professional confidence. Staff members offer individualized feedback on CVs and cover letters, guiding students to highlight their unique skills and motivations effectively. Simulation exercises replicate real-world recruitment scenarios, helping students gain confidence and refine their communication strategies.
