Moving an IT specialist to Finland: low competition, not much snow and total introversion

When it comes to moving an IT specialist from Russia, Germany , the USA, or at least the UK are the first to come to mind . In these countries, salaries are really high, but the competition is much higher than average. And where to go if you don't have much experience yet, don't want to bump your elbows with other IT engineers, or simply don't attract countries that are popular for relocation?







We suggest considering Finland as an alternative. Maybe she is not the leader in terms of salaries for IT engineers, but she is constantly recognized as the happiest , safest and  most politically stable . And here they are madly in love with dogs.







We spoke with an entrepreneur who has lived in Finland for a long time, and the wife of an IT specialist who moved there last year. And based on their experience, we will tell you what are the pros and cons of Finland in terms of the relocation of an IT specialist, what is needed to move and how things are with work, housing and medicine.













Why Finland



High demand for IT specialists. Finland not so long ago broke into the IT industry, so there are a lot of startups here, but there are still not enough specialists. For example, companies such as New Things Company , Columbia Road , Polar Squad work here .
