Entering the Inner Circle 2026
Join us for Entering the Inner Circle, an event designed to connect international students, jobseekers, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in a relaxed and interactive environment.
The event is organized by students as part of the Practical Event Design and Realisation course, a collaboration between the 3UAS (Haaga Helia, Metropolia and Laurea University of Applied Sciences) and the City of Espoo.
Created by students for students and employers, the event offers an opportunity to build professional connections, explore career possibilities, and engage directly with companies from various industries.
Why Attend?
Throughout the afternoon, participating companies will introduce their businesses and share insights into their industries. Students and jobseekers will have the chance to network directly with company representatives, learn about career opportunities, and expand their professional networks.
Participants can also benefit from:
- Professional headshots taken by a photographer throughout the event to enhance LinkedIn profiles.
- CV Clinic, where experts provide practical advice and feedback to help improve CVs and job applications.
- Networking opportunities with employers, entrepreneurs, fellow students, and jobseekers.
- An optional Interactive Workshop where students can work with companies on real business challenges, contribute fresh ideas, and develop their problem-solving skills in a collaborative setting.
