<h3>What are the Pros and Cons of living and working in Finland?</h3>

I plan to live and work in Finland sometime in the future. I'm also going to school for Radiology; is there a good outlook for this career in Finland? ANY information you can provide on making the actual move and finding a job is also greatly appreciated. :)


<strong>Finland best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by Tyrni</i><br/>I'm not quite sure about how popular this career is in Finland but I can give you some advice on living and language, Accommodation and living for most is deemed pretty expensive you would need a job. As you say future I would suggest you start on learning Finnish prompt because to be in a medical based career in Finland would require you to speak Finnish fluent. It's extreamly difficult to find a job with little Finnish and swedish also.

The best thing you can do is try and find a Finnish teacher where you live, learn while you are looking for a job on the internet. Make sure you have everything set up before you actually make the move.

Here is a link where you can chose between Finnish Courses, you learn, speak write, review and submit your work and native finns will rate and correct your work, it's very good.
