Medaffcon’s trainee culture
At Medaffcon, we have invested in young professionals’ career development for years. By employing trainees, we have found new top professionals while simultaneously opening doors for future careers.
The support of experienced colleagues and the guidance of the superiors guarantee that all our experts, including our trainees, produce results in accordance with our values. We provide young people the possibility to show their skills, while guiding and supporting them in their development and in the transfer from studies to working life.
In addition to benefiting the trainees, the traineeships have helped us find top talents for years. Inspired by the positive experiences, we are proud to continue this culture.
“Traineeship is the best way to learn to apply the theory gained through studies in practical work, particularly since university education is often fairly theory-focused in Finland. Providing a trainee position is a significant experience for young people in terms of their future careers. Students may bring vigorous attitude and new perspectives to the working environment.”
“The trainee position at Medaffcon is my first job where I’ve worked in my own field. Being a trainee has meant daily learning of new issues, insights, challenges and valuable work experience for the future. The best part is that I have already noticed that I’ve learned plenty of new things, I have become more interested in the field and I’ve been able to utilised in practice what I have learned at the school bench.”
