International business students now again have the possibility to apply for an internship in an organisation in Finland. You will gain 30 study credits after the 20 week long internship, learn a lot as well as start building your work-network in Finland. This might be the key to your further employment in Finland after graduation.

As you might know we have an internship program with some companies in Helsinki. At the moment we have 4 students working in 3 companies. We have made interviews with our participating students and companies last spring and the overall impression is upper positive. All students have seen how this internship possibility has helped them in their integration into the Finnish working life and the companies have been impressed by the students (some have been offered to stay on as employees after the internship).

This is why we are very exited to now offer you the possibility to apply to two of these internships. One is specifically in logistics (C&C Port Agency Ltd) and the other one is a position as the executive assistant (Finn Church Aid) that fist all business majors as the tasks are very diversified. You find more information about the positions in the attachments.

This internship will give you 30 study credits and therefor cover both your practical training 1 and 2. The position is a full time work but you will be able to attend exams and presentations that you need at schools if you inform the employer about your schools dates before the internship starts.

The positions are unpaid but we stress that it is very important for you to get a good internship in Finland to integrate and get the business network needed for further work possibilities after graduation. This is why we strongly recommend that you apply for this and through this get 1) good work experience that is recognized by other employers later on 2) build your CV for later employment 3) start building your business network in Finland.

Send your application by email and add a cover letter and your CV. Also mark which of the two internships you are interested in.
