Availability of workforce can be a challenge, but companies in the Tampere Region Employment Area are not left alone. The City of Tampere’s Employment and Growth Services, together with the municipalities in the Tampere Region Employment Area, offer practical support for recruitment, competence development, and different stages of a company’s lifecycle. Service is free of charge.
Tampere is now investing in personalized employer services. These services are being developed strongly based on the needs of employers. The goal is to ensure the availability of skilled workforce and to support business growth.
Tailored support for companies in recruitment and skills development
Companies receive personalized service, including help in finding suitable candidates from a large pool of job seekers. A pre-interview with the jobseeker helps ensure that their skills and experience are clearly and authentically visible and highlighted.
– Everything has worked perfectly and on a fast schedule with Employment Service Specialist. He listens to the customer and knows how to find the right candidates, so all that’s left for us is to make the decisions. The customer service is a full 100%, says Aki Lyytikäinen, Installation Manager at Laatusähkäri Oy.
The service has received excellent feedback – company visits are actively made, and customer satisfaction is high. This year alone, over 900 company meetings have been held, and more than 400 recruitment assignments have been completed. Customers especially appreciate the personal approach, speed, and expertise.
– A motivated and skilled employee joined our company after a subsidized employment period. The personal service was a real ‘vitamin’ for a busy entrepreneur. The service was efficient, prompt, and tailored to meet the company’s needs and preferences, says Juha Vainionpää, CEO of R-Menu Oy.
– Employment Service Specialist clearly explained the new topic and provided a lot of new information, which changed our own perceptions. We hope to try the service again in the future and expect it to deliver results, says Kalle Kulmala, Unit Director at Peab Oy.
Flexible solutions for business needs
If a suitable candidate isn’t immediately available, flexible training solutions are available and those are always tailored to the company’s specific needs. Trainings can be launched quickly and implemented in cooperation with training providers.
Public business services support companies throughout their lifecycle – from startup to growth and situations of change. Digital portal yritys.tampere.fi brings services for the companies together, and its AI-assisted search function helps find the right solutions for different situations. Portal is soon to be launched.
– If you haven’t yet received a call from us, don’t hesitate to get in touch. Let’s schedule a meeting and explore together which services could benefit your company, encourages Sami Heikkilä, Team Leader at Tampere Employment and Growth Services
