Hi Roos,
I am very sorry that you feel sad and couldn't find a place to work.I think almost all foreigners agree that getting into the job
market here in Finland is a very difficult task. I have been myself in your tough situation. I received more than 70 " sorry, unfortunately you are not..." and I started asking myself maybe I don't have enough competences,maybe I need to learn more what should I do more? When I had a change to get a six month project trough a network surprisingly I learned that my colleagues are not any better than me, in fact my knowledge was more update and I was more open to new ideas and innovation. But... as I mentioned I got that
project trough a network and here is the trick. I learned from Finns that many Finnish people know someone who knows someone and very often people are already appointed for the a vacancy but then due to the rules and regulation and equal! chance job is published.
Please keep your hope and spirit and continue,I really hope that an opportunity opens up to you as soon as possible. As an idea, maybe you can contact the adult education such as Helsingin Kaupunki , Arbis etc. and offer them teaching service. you already have Cisco's certificate so you can teach that to others.
I already crossed my fingers for you and wished the best for the very near future.
