📢 International House Oulu’s popular Job Hunting Trilogy is back this autumn. 🍂
Job Hunting Trilogy is a free workshop series designed to help you develop practical job search skills, gain fresh perspectives, and get support on your job hunting journey.
This practical workshop on 11 November helps you prepare for real interview situations and communicate your competence with greater clarity and confidence.
📅 When: Wednesday, 11 November, 12:00–15:30
📍 Where: Oulu City Hall
🔗 The registration: lyyti.fi/reg/jobhuntingpt3
⚠️ Please note: The workshops are free of charge, but places are limited, and registration is binding.
The session covers
👉 what to expect from job interviews in Finland
👉 how to prepare before an interview
👉 how to introduce yourself and explain your professional background
👉 answering common and challenging interview questions
👉 using concrete examples to demonstrate your skills
👉 developing a strong elevator pitch
👉 communicating confidently without memorising answers
👉 questions you can ask the employer
👉 responsible use of AI when preparing for interviews.
A major part of the workshop is practical. Participants will practise interview situations, test their elevator pitches and receive constructive feedback.
The workshop will be facilitated by Minna Jarva, Recruitment & Partnership Specialist at Startup Refugees.
Minna’s work is focused on bridging the gap between international talents and Finnish employers. She specializes in developing employment practices, driving recruitment collaborations and other partnerships, and training & coaching employers and job seekers toward success.
With a background in Communication and Marketing and years of close collaboration with employers, Minna offers a unique insider perspective on what hiring managers look for—and how you can make a lasting impression in your next interview.
✅ Why attend?
Knowing what you want to say and being able to say it clearly under interview pressure are two different things.
This workshop gives you the opportunity to practise before the real interview.
You will leave with a clearer professional pitch, stronger answers to interview questions and practical feedback that you can use immediately in your next recruitment process.
