You can find information about work permits here: https://migri.fi/en/home.
If we will guide the employee on residence permit-related matters, housing, and relocation, is that mentioned in the recruitment notice. We will discuss the matter personally with the applicant when it's relevant.

Neither we nor an employer in general sponsor a work permit. Getting a work permit in abroad might be in some cases difficult and expensive and it’s not profitable for all the candidates to do. Employers are mostly looking for potential workers whose permit and travelling to Finland are doable or they are already in Finland or EU-citizens and have experience on working in similar circumstances like in Finland (weather, culture etc.). If an employer will sponsor work permit we will sure inform that in recruitment notice.
