Trainees and students

Come work for us! We can coordinate your working hours to fit your studies or circumstances. You will gain valuable work experience, pleasant colleagues, and additional income to cover your study-related expenses.

TET – Job familiarisation

TET traineeships are a great opportunity to get acquainted with working life. You can inquire about TET positions directly at the locations, just go in person and ask for a supervisor.  

Upper secondary studies

Our involvement in various business sectors creates many opportunities for students. As a student, you can join us to complete the training required by your studies or your thesis or diploma project for your degree that is related to our business needs. We also have a variety of employment opportunities for students, and you do not have to study within our field to work for us, students carry out more than 1,800 training weeks in our outlets every year. We will take your study schedule into account when setting your working hours.

University students

We work together with universities in our operational area, providing opportunities for on-the-job training, theses and diploma work, and various development projects. Students in higher education can complete on-the-job training at our outlets. You might develop a suitable thesis or diploma work topic during your on-the-job training, but you can also find a topic at the Northern Karelia Cooperative Society even without training.
