We\u2019re hiring enthusiastic learners to join our development teams in Helsinki for a 4-6 month paid trainee period starting on October 4th.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Applications are open until Sunday, August 15.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What we\u2019re looking for<\/h2>\n<p>We don\u2019t expect you to excel in everything before joining us, but we do call for eagerness and the ability to learn new things. You can compile your application the way you want, but one thing we require from all applicants along with a CV is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>A project to showcase your skills in writing readable and well-structured code<\/em>. Our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reaktor.com\/junior-dev-assignment-2021\/\">pre-assignment<\/a>\u00a0is tailor-made for this purpose, and we encourage you to do it.\u00a0A hobby\/work project in a publicly available repository can also do the job if you believe it demonstrates your skills adequately.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You\u2019ll have a head start in our projects, and therefore, an advantage in the recruitment process if you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Know at least one programming language\/stack well.<\/em>\u00a0Knowing more languages with different abstraction levels and paradigms will come in handy.<\/li>\n<li><em>Are familiar with a web stack<\/em>. Most of our client projects have aspects involving the web, and thus, understanding the fundamentals of web development (protocols, standards, security, conventions, relational databases) and mastering at least one stack of tools (frontend+backend) will help you.<\/li>\n<li><em>Have previous experience in teamwork with good development practices (e.g. code reviews) and in using Git<\/em>. As a junior employee, you\u2019ll be working as part of one of our development teams, so knowing good development practices is a plus.<\/li>\n<li><em>Make it through the day in English and\/or Finnish.<\/em>\u00a0The working language in all of our projects is one or the other. When working with our clients in Finland, Finnish is an advantage but not a strict requirement.<\/li>\n<li><em>Are located in or able to move to the Helsinki capital area.\u00a0<\/em>If the situation requires, the work will start remotely but will move to the office once it\u2019s safe. Unfortunately, we\u2019re unable to offer assistance for relocation in our junior positions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you don\u2019t check every box on the list, don\u2019t worry. We\u2019re seeking potential, not ready-made professionals.<\/p>\n<h2>What we offer<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Meaningful projects that solve real-life problems.<\/em>\u00a0You\u2019ll be spending your trainee period in one of our development teams, working with our leading experts, building solutions that solve actual business or societal challenges.<\/li>\n<li><em>A passionate community of experts to join<\/em>. As a Reaktorian, you\u2019ll have talented and experienced colleagues around you, ready to help you whenever you need it.<\/li>\n<li><em>A workplace where you can feel at home.<\/em>\u00a0We\u2019re not looking to hire your work-self, but the person you are as a whole. At Reaktor, we let you be the same person at work as at home.<\/li>\n<li><em>A paid trainee period that is not all about work.\u00a0<\/em>We Reaktorians take our work seriously, but we also like to have fun. Thus, we\u2019re having regular team days and doing non-work-related activities together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to apply<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019re eagerly waiting for your application!

We\u2019re responding to all applications individually, so it might take a little while before we get to yours but you\u2019ll hear from us by the end of August.<\/p>\n<p>\u2709\ufe0f After reviewing your application, we&#8217;ll either invite you to an interview or let you know the reason why we think that it&#8217;s not yet a good time to start our journey together.<\/p>\n<p>? Our interview process includes two rounds, both with your potential future team members. You can read our previous junior employees\u2019\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reaktor.com\/blog\/the-feedback-discussions-were-definitely-a-high-point-for-me-the-reaktor-trainee-journey-revealed\/\">comments about the interviews<\/a>\u00a0on our blog.<\/p>\n<p>? We\u2019ll make the hiring decision after the second interview. Sometimes, we\u2019re able to make the decision soon after the interview but since our project situation is in ongoing flux, sometimes it\u2019ll take us a little longer to evaluate the situation. All hiring decisions are made by the end of September. The exact duration (4-6 months) of your trainee period can be agreed on in the second interview.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have a question?
