Many company websites in Finland are also in English and you can find open vacancies and application forms there.  Once you have found a vacancy that interests you, make sure you submit a job application that meets the requirements stated in the ad.

You can also directly contact and send your CV to companies in Finland even if they do not have open vacancies at the moment. We recommend you research potential companies in the sectors that you are interested in and confidently establish contact with the right contact person. 

Social media can also be a powerful tool in job search. In some fields LinkedIn is the main recruitment channel and creating a LinkedIn profile can increase your chances of finding a job. It is also a good idea to join regional job-search groups, for instance, on Facebook.
