Application documents:  It is up to the applicant to determine the content of these documents.

Other information: during the recruitment process, we may also process e.g. email communication between you and us, conversations with the applicant’s referees and information from other sources indicated by the applicant (e.g. LinkedIn profile).

Cookies: If you are entering your job application via our website, we will process some personal information through cookies. Please read more about our cookie policies on our general Privacy Policy here.

If the job applicant is not a Finnish citizen, we as an employer must verify the foreign person’s right to work in Finland before entering into an employment relationship.

We process the personal data of our job applicants to find suitable persons for our open positions. We also process personal data related to the job application process to ensure the appropriate application process and to fill any open positions that may arise in the future. Our processing of your personal data for these purposes is based on our legitimate interest to fill our open positions and to ensure that the recruitment process has been appropriate.

If the application leads to the conclusion of an employment contract, we may also process the applicant’s personal data in order to prepare the employment contract and, for example, to establish access rights to our systems. In such cases, the processing of personal data is based on a contract between the controller and the data subject.

The personal data of job applicants is retained as long as necessary to fulfil the open position and for two years thereafter to ensure appropriate application process.

We may also utilize our database of job applications to fill future open positions for up to two years. Jobseekers have the right to object to their application being used for future purposes.

As a general rule, we do not disclose information about our jobseekers to third parties. However, we may share information about the progress of a job search with our recruitment partner involved in the recruitment process.

Your personal data is regularly stored within the EU. Some of our service providers may exceptionally transfer information classified as personal data to server locations outside of the EU, namely to the USA. These transfers are, however, always governed by appropriate safeguards, such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.
