Herizon ry is a registered Finnish non-profit association (reg. no. 3277100-2). We help international professionals become employable, free of charge.
Counted from members' work history, self-reports and monthly checks. How we count
We built tyomarkkinadata.fi: every open job posting in Finland, from 50+ sources, updated daily. It shows what employers here ask for. Labor market signals
116 free courses in English, skill checks, Floria for the CV, cover letter and interview, japply for the CV, and the application builder. The Herizon blueprint is the order you use them in.
How many members moved into work, counted every quarter. The method is public. Open data
International professionals in Finland, in one place: members, the mentors who got their first job here, and the employers who search them.
We do it with the Herizon blueprint, four steps in order: Map your skills, Close the gaps, Build your network, Get hired.
We are not a recruitment agency. Herizon is free for job seekers, and it stays yours after you are hired.
The money goes into software, courses and the people who run them.
We ask partners for transparency and hold ourselves to the same standard. We publish how many members are in work and how we count them.
City of Helsinki, City of Espoo and Illusian support this work.
Herizon is a community for international professionals who live in Finland or plan to work here. Members get free courses, skill checks, help with applications, mentors who found their first job here, and chat rooms where they meet each other. The join page explains who can sign up and what it takes.
Around the community we run four programs, one of them together with the separate Femcode community, each going deeper on one step of the blueprint:
The programs page compares them.
Our articles, newsletters and research are written for three groups. International professionals use them to understand the Finnish job market and to plan their next step. Employers and partner organizations use them to see what the talent they want to hire looks like and what skills the market asks for. Cities, universities and public bodies can use the open data and labour market reports. If you are one of the employers or partners, start with the companies page or partners.
To ask a question, propose a collaboration or report a mistake, use the contact page. Press material is in the media kit, and the answers we give most often are in the FAQ.
Most of the articles and newsletters on this site are written by the Herizon team, every one carries its publication date, and we name our sources and correct errors we are told about.
The full rules are in our editorial policy.
