Excerpted from the Finland Career Guide


Due to strong focus on technology and engineering in the Finnish economy, the outlook for young engineers in Finland is excellent. Nearly all professional engineers find employment immediately, many of them having secured contracts before graduating. Mechanical, telecommunications and data engineers are in the highest demand in Finland. The sector employs more than 200,000 people.

The technology sector includes electronics and the electro-technical industry, mechanical engineering and the metals industry, making it the largest industrial sector in Finland. Its international success is a result of long-term investments in research and development to provide innovative, high-quality products. Finnish electro-technical solutions are found globally, from trains to power plants and from space technology to sports and medicine. In addition to cellular phones, Finland also produces well-known heart rate monitors, weather monitoring systems and several other measuring and steering systems.


This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
