Excerpted from the Finland Career Guide
During the 1990s, sales and marketing
professionals found an excellent employment market. This has changed in
recent years with the slowdown in the overall economy and increased pressure
in telecommunications and other high-tech sectors. That said, Finland’s
tradition of technology innovation continues to result in the creation of
hundreds of new technology companies, all of which need talented and
experienced marketing and sales professionals. Many also require the
expertise of management consultants.
The size of the management
consulting sector remains relatively small but is growing in
response to moves by major employers to improve their bottom lines
by outsourcing certain job functions. All the large international
management consultant firms -- such as Accenture, McKinsey and
Boston Consulting Group -- have a presence in Finland and offer
management, technology and financial consulting services.
Additionally, many local, smaller Finnish consultancies specialize
in niche markets.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
