2012 - Software Engineering Graduate
This profession group is unlike any other profession group. Once you love it, once you have a taste of problem solving, you can always ask for more. These are my current thoughts, of course. It is a very classic story about this profession, in daily life you are often asked "this computer needs formatting, can you help?". Everything started this way for me as well. I spent all my summer holidays before university working at my cousins' computer shop. I had one goal, majoring about the computer!

2012 - Psychology Graduate
I graduated from Izmir University of Economics, Department of Psychology in 2012. In my career, I would first like to mention how my being in the Psychology Department of Izmir University of Economics contributed positively to my undergraduate life and future plans. Izmir University of Economics Department of Psychology provides a very efficient undergraduate life for psychologist candidates who will continue their professional life in either an academic career or in applied fields with the use of laboratories and guidance to ensure the continuity of scientific research.

2009 - Industrial Systems Engineering Graduate
I started my education at Izmir University of Economics in 2005 as one of the first students at Department of Industrial Systems Engineering (now Department of Industrial Engineering). Of course I had doubts about choosing a new department of a relatively young university, but, when I was convinced that the University offered a high quality education system and teaching staff based on the needs of the region and the country, my worries were replaced by a different excitement. In addition to being raised by internationally recognized academics during my 4 year undergraduate education, it was also rewarding to see our department maturing and improving along with us and being a part of it has always been a point where I felt the advantage.

2016 - Psychology Graduate
I graduated from Izmir University of Economics, Department of Psychology in 2016 as an honor student. I have to admit that when I was going to university for the first time, it made me very anxious to study at my dream program in English. But when I look back right now, I say "I am glad I did it". I owe my academic and social skills to my esteemed professors primarily and to Izmir University of Economics, which allowed them to touch my life.

After graduation, I started to work as an Export Supervisor in Fjord Marin, a company with foreign partners, between 2010-2012. I worked at Opet Fuchs, first as a CFO assistant and then as a Budget-Reporting Specialist between 2012-2013. Afterwards, I worked as a Finance Specialist at CMS Jant Sanayi between 2013-2015.
