Overview

As a co-operation of Talent Hub Eastern Finland, UEF, Karelia, Savonia, Riveria, Sakky and YSAO aim to ensure that international students who come to our region find their place, secure employment, and integrate into Eastern Finland. We will help students get to know Finnish working life, build networks, learn the language, and find internships, jobs and business opportunities. We help employers identify the potential of international students and find a skilled workforce. We offer support and concrete tools for recruiting, onboarding, and learning Finnish at the workplace as well as adapting to the Finnish work culture. Our goal is to lower the threshold for hiring international talent and make it a natural part of organisations' everyday operations. Taking care of the vitality of Eastern Finland is our common concern. We need new perspectives, ideas, innovations and opportunities for cooperation. Our region will succeed when we involve everyone in building a common future. Our goal is a tolerant, welcoming and inclusive Eastern Finland that offers work, livelihood and a good life to everyone living in the region. The project is co-funded by the European Union.
