A Russian in Finland can find a seasonal part-time job even without knowing the language. At the same time, most employers, along with a decent salary by our standards, also provide accommodation and meals.
What is needed for this
The first step is to get Seasonal work F1 - a work visa to enter the country with the possibility of finding a job there. It's just that a tourist visa does not give the right to work in Finland.
Of course, you can find a part-time job and illegal, especially short-term, but in this case, the illegal runs the risk of not only being left without monetary reward at all, but also being fined and deported.
Where to look for work
To obtain a work visa, an invitation from the employer is required. Therefore, it is necessary to contact him while still in Russia. To do this, you need to contact recruitment agencies via the Internet or look for work on specialized sites.
It is quite possible to find job offers in the advertisements on the pages of Finnish newspapers, which have electronic versions. At the same time, it is not necessary to know the language; it is enough to use the services of an online translator.
If you know how to collect
An easy seasonal option is to get a job as a picker of berries and mushrooms, here knowledge of the language is absolutely optional. The employer indicates the place of possible collection and the price.
They are something like this:
- for a kilogram of blueberries, you can get up to 5 euros per kg;
- lingonberries are cheaper, there are more of them - up to 2 euros;
- the most expensive of all is cloudberry - up to 15 euros.
Mushrooms have their own tariff:
- chanterelles are valued the most - up to 9 euros;
- then white comes - up to 7;
- there are bitters that are not quite familiar to Russians, they cost from 2 to 4 euros, but a lot of them grows.
