Mental Well-Being for International Job Seekers: Q&A webinar
Being an international in Finland is hard enough. Being an unemployed international is even more challenging. Issues like belonging, cultural differences, and fear of rejection can drain a lot of energy needed to build a happy life in Finland.
We are meeting with Suvi and Niina from Relocation Psychologists to discuss ways to address these challenges. This online Q&A session will give you the opportunity to ask direct or anonymous questions about your psychological well-being as an international job seeker in Finland. It will be a safe and supportive space, free from judgment, focused entirely on your well-being.
When: 31.01.2025 at 11:00, online

ATS Q&A session with Leo Heydon Lancelot Johansson-Stockford
Job seekers in Finland often wonder: How can I create a CV that passes ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) without being rejected? Questions like "Are Canva-designed CVs ATS-friendly?" or "Should I hide keywords in invisible text to get noticed?" are common in career conversations.
But where does this advice come from? Workshops, career coaches, or services targeting job seekers—not recruiters. In fact, have you ever heard a Finnish recruiter say, "Our ATS automatically rejects candidates"?
To clear up the confusion, we are diving into this topic with an expert recruiter. Together, we’ll explore what ATS systems really do, debunk myths, and share actionable tips to help you stand out—without resorting to invisible keywords.
Join us for the ATS Q&A session with Leo Heydon Lancelot Johansson-Stockford.
When: 16.01.2025 at 17:30 at
Where: Luckan Integration (Yrjönkatu 27, Helsinki)
