Internships and summer jobs

Energy companies offer work placements and internships, as well as summer jobs for pupils and students across Finland. It is also possible to undertake thesis project with these companies.

Summer jobs are an excellent opportunity to introduce young people to the energy sector and provide valuable work experience to support their career choices.

It is also possible do a thesis or dissertation with a company in our industry. Additionally, in the energy sector, you can complete the work life orientation period required by middle and high schools, known as TET internships. The TET period is an excellent opportunity to see real working life, gain good experiences, and apply what you have learned. It is worth approaching a potentially interesting company proactively to initiate cooperation. A list of Finnish Energy member companies can be found here.
