The Finnish labour market shows positive signs in almost every respect. Unemployment has fallen, including the amount of people in long-term and disguised unemployment, and at all education levels. Payroll increases are anticipated in three of four Finnish regions, and 8 of 10 industry sectors.
The importance of networking
Networks are useful in seeking employment. Recognise and utilise your own network. Teachers, fellow students, acquaintances, ex-colleagues and supervisors may also be part of your network. Click here to find our most recommended tips for starting to build your own networks.
Ask other people for tips on job hunting or help for writing your job application. Also consider whether there is a person in your own network who could tell you about employment opportunities or recommend you.
Be active. Maintain your skills, follow the events and news of your own field, participate in Finnish language courses and further training and develop your previous competence. Also make sure that your most important documents and certificates are up to date. Click here to see the professional checklist for job seekers.
