      Our population is at aging point were the large age groups are going to retire. If you can hold a wrench or use a computer, there is a work for you here.

      Pay is of course 1/2 or 1/3 what it is in US, but because healthcare and education is totally free, it is pretty much the same.

      Easiest way is to find a company that hires you first, because they can apply you for a working visa.

      Here is a government site that list available jobs for foreigners: https://www.workinfinland.com/en/

      There are open jobs like for chefs, electricians, nurses, coders, Santa’s Elf (really, look it up) etc

        I understand you think that but I literally was applying for jobs for like 6 months early this year. Not even a single response. I’m a decent data engineer with like 4 years of solid experience and a graduate degree. Could’ve just been my fault not applying to the right places though for sure. Anyway thanks for that link!

          Strange, I would say that experienced data engineer would get hired here very quickly. My team was searching one senior and one junior data engineer 6 months ago, and got 0 applications for senior role. Junior we took directly from school desk.

          I know that searching for job is quite painful, but that is quite global. Good luck.

            I actually got a great job about a month ago :) but thank you! Maybe a couple of years here then I’ll come by with some more of that juicy experience.

      The first page of the jobs site linked literally has “restaurant worker”. What the hell DOESN’T count as specialized experience to you? Ability to breathe?
