Is the employment situation for immigrants in Finland really as bad as we think?

What does the statistics tell us?

And how can we use this data to initiate improvements both for international job seekers and Finnish companies to hire more diverse work force?

In this super-interesting episode I am interviewing Vaida Kavaliukaite-Kaijanmäki, who is a labour-market analyst, event coordinator and project manager with the vision to solve Finland’s labour market. We are covering, inter alia,

• Why unemployment figures can be misleading
• What we know about salary developments of immigrants in Finland
• What are the 5 factors that bring you a clear disadvantage as a job seeker
• What are the most common ways to find a job in Finland
• How bad the employment situation in Finland is in comparison to other European countries

- all based on pure labour market data and statistical evidence.
