      Why would there need to be any other reason? The working language there is Finnish and the customer work is English, those are enough for the requirement.

    2. They said it right there in the posting: the office’s everyday life and internal communication are in finnish. 

    3. When your colleagues, your boss, and your subordinates speak Finnish, the candidate’s requirement for fluent Finnish is, of course, due to something else besides facilitating communication within the team. Sure.

    4. Because they want to communicate Finnish with the fellow employees quite popular with Finnish companies.

    5. „We don’t want to hire foreigners, but at the same time we and other companies say that we’re looking for foreign talent so that our public imaginary numbers go up in the stock market.“

      I worked in engineering office and because there was single english speaking person, everyone was required to speak english even during breaks so the single foreign person would not feel like outsider.

      This was Ok to most workers but I can imagine there are plenty of people and companies who would find this frustrating.

      So thr language rule is simply for making life simpler for everyone. Even if everyone was fluent in english, its often easier to do things in your native language and single non Finnish speaker would force all content in english.

      If you meet the other requirements of this job, learning a new language is piece of cake for you.

      IMO it’s sufficiently and plainly explained there. They largely serve customers in English but operate internally in Finnish.

      Looking at their customer base, they work a lot with public sector that often operates in Finnish. Language is often required in the contracts.

      I think if anything the “mainly done in English” doesn’t mean it’s 100% English. The office banter reason is a bit sus, easy to navigate internal comms w today’s tools, and anyone can pick up enough Finnish to get by speaking at an office. Unless you’re presenting to a team or something.

    11. Not this crap again, we live in Finland if you like it learn language if not move to Commonwealth countries
