UEF EU Career Ambassador:

Dear Sir/Madam,

I’m the new EU Career Ambassador for the academic year 2018-2019. I’m a fifth-year career counselling student in the University of Eastern Finland. As an EU Career Ambassador, I distribute information about EU career opportunities to my fellow students. There is a great variety of different traineeships and career opportunities offered. Traineeships are offered to both students and graduates, and it’s possible to apply throughout the year. With EU career opportunities, the applying process itself is rather complex but can lead to a life-long career. I will be glad to share my knowledge and tips for the applying process. I can come and tell about these opportunities in different events or seminars, or you can share my email address directly to your students. Feel free to contact me at uef.eucareers [at] gmail.com.

Best regards,

Rosa Ylimaula
