Pay scales in Finland

Hello Everyone!

I was wondering if anyone has a link to pay scales by profession in Finland. I am looking for a job and most vacancies asks one to put down a "desired pay" on the application. Having worked in the US for many years, I feel that what I was getting paid was well above any jobs for my experience here and I would at least like to get to an interview.... I have not been able to find such list, maybe because I am not fluent in Finnish but I know such list exists, just cannot find it. Please help.

Hardly surprising... a lot of things in Finland are in Finnish

Some idea, but sample size of one... http://palkkavertailu.com/palkka/s%C3%A ... B6%C3%B6ri

Thanks Upphew, the point is I still didn't move to Helsinki, but I started to realize it won't be that easy with the finnish language...
