What are my employment opportunities in Finland without Finnish language
While knowing Finnish can open more job options, many tech, research, and international business roles in cities like Helsinki and Tampere accept English-speaking candidates. Students in IT, engineering, and design fields often find jobs without needing Finnish.
How hard is it to find a decent job after graduation?
