Three weeks online-group

By participating in this programme, you will get insight and support for your job search in Finland. 

CareerBoost is based on peer-to-peer support and the meetings will be led by the group members themselves. In your group, you can share the successes and disappointments of your job search, get encouragement and feedback, as well as new perspectives on the direction of your own skills and the flow for successful employment.

Each week has its own themes, tips and exercises that will propel you to a new job. Every day from Monday to Friday, there will be job search-related activities. The tasks take about two hours a day.

A dedicated career coach is present at the start of the group during the first week and weekly on Thursdays for joint meetings. The group is open for members of six Akava unions. The programme is created by experienced career coaches.
