Career Hunt 2018
I was lucky enough to be selected as a candidate for Career Hunt 2018, a recruitment campaign launched by Work in Estonia in collaboration with some of the biggest IT companies, including Skype, Taxify, Axinom, Finestmedia, Global Gaming Group, Helmes, Nortal, Proekspert, Swedbank, Topia, Twilio, and Veriff. The aim of the campaign was to find talented specialists from around the world for senior IT positions in Estonia.
The five-day tech-tour was all-inclusive, and we were flown to Tallinn to meet with recruiters and representatives from the participating companies. We had VIP shortcuts to the interview process and were able to showcase our skills and experience to some of the most influential companies in the IT industry.
I had a great time getting to know my fellow candidates at the welcome dinner, which was the first event of the week. We were able to network and make connections with like-minded individuals who shared our excitement for working in Estonia.
Over the next few days, we visited some of the most innovative and dynamic IT companies in Estonia, including Skype, Taxify, and Helmes. It was fascinating to see how these companies were using cutting-edge tools and techniques to solve complex problems and shape the future of technology.
The interview process was both exciting and nerve-wracking, but the VIP shortcuts allowed us to skip the long waiting times and go straight to the interview room. It was an excellent opportunity to showcase our abilities and experience to some of the most influential companies in the industry.
Aside from the interviews, we also had the chance to explore Tallinn and experience the local culture. We visited the old town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and learned about the city’s history and traditions. We also had a chance to sample the local cuisine and try some of the famous Estonian delicacies.
Overall, my experience as a selected candidate in Career Hunt 2018 was amazing. I met some of the brightest minds in the IT industry and explored a new country at the same time. I highly recommend Career Hunt to anyone who is looking for a new challenge in their career and wants to explore the exciting opportunities that Estonia has to offer.
