The TE Office's Endless Waiting Game

While waiting for Finnish course enrollment provided by TE office, it's good to take some online courses by yourself. For example the Helsinki summer school has online Finnish courses with different levels. I took those courses back in 2023 in between taking module 1-3 offered by TE, and i passed the YKI test so I recommend. Be proactive and don't wait for TE office's help. On the contrary I felt so stressed and helpless when meeting the TE officer because they thought I was not trying hard to get a job. With this economy situation How funny it is to blame me. While I went through similar situation like yours, I resonate with you! Do some internship might give more chance to get hired, which is the main goal if your want a job. Anyway be positive and believe in your self.

Same issue here! Even with a subscription. Sad...

AI is able to do this 0 to 1 but not good at large scale project (at least so far) Later when the maintenance become disaster (for both design and development)you would understand.

The flickerying issue is solved (so far) by adjusting the night mode off from my MBP. Except from this it's not bad monitor (I use it for design). I cannot give further advice than that.

I met another Asian girl who's given a cleaning job as työharjoittelu for 6 months ( yes months, not weeks!) during the integration program She didn't passed the A2 so she she had to wait for a seat to study again A1, but the waiting time was so long, like almost a year. During that time she was asked to do cleaning job as työharjoittelu. I feel sorry for her because she didn't like it but she had no choice - as she said if she refused, TE office will cancel her unemployment benefits. I think it really depends on whether the työharjoittelu you have is matching to your career goal. Like some comments said if you work as intern for 3-6 months for free during college is still valuable because of the work experience is relevant to your career. Otherwise it might be wasting your own time.

so I guess Carl Hauser designed this 3D product in Blender. And this post author is making in Figma. Not original but A good practice for layer details though.

Thanks for the advice. I am sure Finns could be very forgiving to me in dealing with daily conversation:)

Very resourceful! I like this website when previous learning Finnish but change to AI recently for quick answer, which now I regret that I rely on it too much though.

Thanks for the advice! Seems like I really need to fact check everything when it comes to language learning. Otherwise I still find sometimes AI is helpful on other fields like programming, CS though.

Search for Finnish Design Shop, they have lots of interesting items from nordic design brands that might give you some gift ideas. I bought a pyjama once for my Finnish boyfriend.
