Course Connect International Career Week: Business Day

Haaga-Helia's Career Services and International Services are thrilled to host our first international career week. During the week, students and alumni will have the opportunity to learn more about Finnish working culture and meet representatives from 16 different companies.

Our International Career Week is comprised of 3 separate events—first on Monday, 22 September, a prep day where career coach, Jochen Faugel, will talk about body language and networking skills. Tuesday, 23 September, will be our Business Day, in which we will invite 8 different companies to meet our students and alumni. Our week will conclude with our ICT Day on 24 September, where we will again invite another 8 companies to visit our Pasila campus.

About our Business Day

The second event of our International Career Week is our Business Day. It will take place on Tuesday, 23 September from 11.30 to 16.00. Seven local companies will be in attendance to share their company culture and insights into Finnish working life. We are thrilled to welcome Accenture, Arctic Startup Epicenter, OP Financial Group, Sharetribe, Strive, and Uponor/Georg Fischer.

Following the company presentations, there will be an opportunity for event attendees to meet and network with company representatives.

This event is divided into two sessions, 11.30-13.30 and 14.00-16.00. In the first session, we will have 4 company presentations, followed by 1 hour for event attendees to network. After a 30-minute break, the schedule will be repeated with three new companies.

Please note that this event will take place in person only. The event will take place in room 1001 on Haaga-Helia's Pasila campus.
