2017:9 thousand programmers are looking for in Finland
According to the Finnish Information Processing Association (TIVIA), Finland's urgent need for software developers with higher education is 9 thousand people. At the same time, it is predicted that by 2020 demand will increase to 15 thousand people, partly due to the retirement of existing specialists from the labor market, the Helsinki Times reported in October 2017.
The business magazine Talouselämä writes that Finland demonstrates an unprecedented influx of foreign software developers: in January-September 2017, more than a thousand programmers from countries outside the European Union got a job in the country - more than in the whole of 2016.
At the same time, technology companies complain that Finnish migration legislation prevents the hiring of qualified foreign specialists, thereby forming conditions for shortages in the domestic labor market.
Due to the lack of their own Finnish qualified personnel, game development companies are forced to hire foreign specialists. About 650 programmers came from India, a little less than 100 from China, Japan and Russia.
 | "Since Finland does not have enough specialists, we had to hire programmers from South Korea," said Veli-Pekka Pirainen, CEO of the Kayaani-based Critical Force game developer. |  |
Specialists coming to Finland from countries that are not members of the European Union are not subject to such a criticized procedure for monitoring the availability of labor resources. According to the Finnish migration control service Migri, such specialists receive a residence permit in Finland in an average of 21 days.[1]
