We proudly hosted another impactful Career Talk organized by our IBU Career Center, welcoming Dr. Fatih Şahbaz, General Manager of Halkbank A.D. Skopje, to our campus for an engaging and insightful session with our students. The event was honored by the presence of our Vice-Rector for Institutional Relations, Asst. Prof. Dr. Ahmet Lökçe, and our Career Center Coordinator, Asst. Prof. Dr. Djeneta Telak Durmishi, whose continued support reflects our strong institutional commitment to connecting academic learning with real-world professional practice. This meaningful gathering provided an excellent platform for our students to engage directly with an accomplished industry leader and gain first-hand insights into the professional world.

During the session, Dr. Şahbaz shared valuable perspectives from his extensive experience in the banking and financial sector, offering our students a deeper understanding of leadership, strategic decision-making, and the evolving dynamics of the modern economy. Through an interactive and forward-looking discussion, we encouraged our students to think critically, adapt to changing environments, and develop the essential skills required for successful careers. This exchange significantly enriched their academic experience by linking theoretical knowledge with practical application and highlighting the importance of professionalism, responsibility, and continuous self-development.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. Fatih Şahbaz for his valuable contribution and for inspiring our students with his professional journey and expertise. We also recognize the dedicated efforts of our IBU Career Center in organizing initiatives that strengthen the connection between academia and industry. As we continue to foster meaningful collaborations and create opportunities for our students, we remain committed to supporting their personal and professional growth while welcoming distinguished professionals to our campus in the future.
