Modifying my CV and application in Finnish. How do I say ' I am free to move, travel to that required city' or 'flexible' when I am meaning I can fix a place to accomodate myself??
Thanx

I just looked at a CV sent to me it said..
"olen valmis sijoittaa uudelleen!"
Which I would translate as "I am ready to relocate!"
But I suppose it could also mean "I am willing to relocate"
Needs a native to check...

I always consult Finnish friends when fixing my application and CV, almost too much!
but have to.
Thank you!

Oops. Actually I mean......I am applying for a temporary job which is based on another city, not here where I live. So it's not really a relocation thing.

OK the voice of a native tells me..
Olen valmis muuttamaan = I am prepared/willing to relocate/move house/family.
"Sijoitta Uudelellen" is a bit heavy..usualy used for relocating something rather than ones self..e.g Shifting Funds from one account to another.
