Dörren is for you:
DOOR OPENER
I am already professionally established in Finland. I want to expand my network and broaden my perspective while helping a foreign born professional by sharing knowledge and contacts within my own industry.
PARTICIPANT
I was born abroad and want to meet people in my professional industry. I would like to broaden my network and learn more about my industry and local working customs. By doing so I increase my chances of finding a job that matches my skills and qualifications.
