Job Hunting Trilogy I – Finding Hidden Jobs in Your Area
- In this interactive on-site session, we get familiar with the hidden job market in Finland, starting from why it’s such a prevalent hiring channel in the first place and then continuing into exploring practical ways of building your approach to getting more out of your search and contacting efforts when open roles are simply not there.
At the end of this session, you’ll have a better understanding of the Finnish silent job market and actionable strategies to find and approach relevant companies. - Wednesday, April 8th at 12–16
