That doesn't really sound like a job for a student. I don't count people after doctoral degrees as students any more. Though I know studying newer ends. Did you somehow still categorize yourself as a student?

@@abirchakraborty1030 I was curious about the connection to "student jobs" topic of the KZfaq video. From your comment I get the impression that you had moved to Finland as a researcher. It is sometimes mentioned in connection to immigration based on studies, but has actually more to do with moving for work than studies even though the employer organization can have also educational activities. From a persons personal perspective a research job position can indeed be a part of getting education and expertice just like a student.

It seems to me that often the public discussions about jobs for students staying in Finland based on residence permit for studies are dominated by talking about jobs for earning income. The other motivations for working are much less discussed. Perhaps that is just Ok. Perhaps not completely Ok. That 30 hours a week can be misunderstood and some people have misunderstood. It is 30 hours per week on average over a period, not actually a weekly limit. And it is only a limit for working for income outside the study curriculum. That means that some internships are not counted into those hours. Working without pay for some causes, pro bono, has no limits. Working to get experience of the field or work-life; working to make friends or contacts; working to get practice using language... These kinds of things aren't limited, if you don't get paid or it's part of your official study program.

Are this jobs easier to get? Are they readily available?

@couple_of_expats 2 ай бұрын

Hi! The jobs mentioned in this video are favourable for students because one can usually accommodate both working and studying, as long as one can find a flexible & suitable schedule. It’s also usually easier to get a part time cleaning job in comparison to a full-time, permanent 9-5 opening which could have tens of applicants (if not hundred +) and not suitable for students who are the target audience of this video.

Some people said that cleaning jobs require education for 2 years to get certificate. Is it true?

@couple_of_expats Ай бұрын

We have never come across such a thing and have both worked as cleaners during our first year in Finland. It would make sense that specialised roles like window cleaning for office buildings would require some training/certification but general cleaning jobs do not.

@just42tube 2 ай бұрын

Some people have entered IT field without any really professional qualifications just by studying by themselves becoming a know skillful hobbyist in the field. Thay was possible decades ago and is still possible but much more difficult path. Many actual jobs are in the intersection pf different disciplines. IT is mostly just a toolset in other fields.

Yes, as in most countries, knowing the local language is very important. In Finland's case, if you do not know Finnish, finding a good job becomes very challenging. While students can still find some jobs using English only, it is still quite difficult.
