Free service and support for job seekers
"CV-ajaja gave REALLY practical tips for a good CV. Everyone struggling with their job search should go here!"
All of our services are free of charge for municipal residents, and everyone is welcome to use them to seek perspective on their own job search documents or to ask questions about a matter that is troubling them during their job search.
CV advice without an appointment – every Tuesday from 13-15 pm
"Is job searching relevant? Does marketing your own skills seem difficult? and praising oneself is difficult?”
Bring your CV and come to the CV consultation for comments and ideas. We offer advice on, for example, how to articulate your skills, how to build a CV that is interesting from a recruiter's perspective, how to improve your first impression and persuasiveness, and how to create a visual identity.
The service is provided by recruitment and job search professionals. Welcome!
More intensive support for job applications
If your job search takes more time or seems otherwise challenging, the municipality offers both individual and group job search coaching to job seekers.
For more information about the different opportunities, please contact your local employment authority at the Päijät-Häme employment services.
