h1_hsr · Post by **h1_hsr** » Mon Oct 05, 2009 1:55 am

I was wondering is some people could help with with information with the kind of work I could get in Finland.

I am 24, from the UK. I am studing Finnish so my finnish is basic. I went to University in the uk and have graduated in Mechanical Engineering with Automotive and Design BSc.

I would like to work in a company that is in the Mechanical, automotive or design sector. For design sector work I would like to be using CAD 2D and 3D packages like AutoCad, 3D Solidwork, Pro E, etc....

I want to move to finland becuase I have been there many times and I like it there, plus my girl friend is finnish, altho she is studing in demark at the moment.

If people could help with company names that are in this line of work I would be very greatful for your help.

Kind regards,

If you have a good figure you can always score as a rentboy, otherwise you need to try the likes of www.monster.fi and look for an engineering job.

You could contact Timo Korhunen of Sisu Auto. He is the R&D director for the company. Sisu headquarters (and manufacturing) are now in Karjaa (was in Hämeenlinna years ago).

Hi, I have a very good figure in my mind, where could I find about being a rent boy? lol.

I have looked at monster, but do find it difficult on there as the site is only in finnish, and i do know its going to be difficult to get a job due to my level of Finnish. Thanks for you help.

good luck!

Hi, thanks for your reply, I have looked on mol.fi and have applied for some jobs from there before. The "the" is very handy but I do also search for in finnish as there are more jobs that way.

cheers

Hi, I have sent a open application to Patria and to Kone, aswell as applied for a job listing at kone. Thanks for your help.

Do Finnish companies by law need to tell you if you didnt make the job and give a reason to why?

thanks,

Hi, I have been on sisu's web site before but was not sure if i should sent a open application as they dont seem to advertise jobs on there site.

I will email Timo Korhunen tomorrow with my O/P and see what he has to say.

Thank you for your help.

Finnish companies tell you usually if you got the job. Otherwise you'll grow old waiting for an answer (even an acknowledgement they got your letter).
