Finland talents in short supply, but was laid off by Nokia employees out of work-Nokia-IT information

On June 15, according to a Reuters report, Finland technology industries once known around the world, but the decline of Nokia mobile phones businesses and ultimately acquired by Microsoft resulted in 15,000 people out of work. Now Finland because can't find talents in science and technology, faces thousands of vacancies for software engineers. But the paradox is, start-ups in the country was not willing to hire the unemployed workers of Nokia.

Finland technology company said its immigration policies on hiring experienced staff has created obstacles in other countries, this further blow to the industry's prospects. Technology is often seen as promoting a recovery factor of the stagnant economy.

Tour company CEO of the Supercell Ilka? Paananen (Ilkka Paanane) said, "we want to have the best game developers, but it is not all good developers from Finland. "Supercell company only employs 180 staff, but its core profit of nearly $ 1 billion last year.

Paananen said, "hiring the best talent in the world to Finland meant that the best timing, but unable to recruit the right people for our country's development brings a great deal of adverse effects. ”

According to Finland's software industry and business associations, Finland technology industries about 7,000 programmers.

Finland have high hopes for start-ups, especially tour companies. Supercell produced the tribal wars and of the angry birds developer Rovio games has been a global success.

Small software companies often look for employees with specific skills, these workers immediately without training posts.

This is bad news for the old Nokia employees.

In 2008, Nokia 40% share of the global mobile phone industry, but as Apple and Samsung touch-screen smartphones, Nokia's mobile phone lost its appeal.

In 2014, the company with approximately $ 7.2 billion acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone business. Before and after the takeover, thousands of highly paid engineer lost his job.

Just last month, now focusing on telecommunications networks, Microsoft and Nokia announced that Finland would cut 2400 jobs.

However, some entrepreneurs, start-ups are often reluctant to hire employees working at Nokia and other companies because these companies often organizational hierarchy, and a narrow range of employees ' individual skills.

Kiosked CEO of Micke Paqvalen advertising Automation has pointed out, "this may not be the issue of professional skills, but can adapt to the working environment problems. Work in a fast-changing startups are different from working for a large company. ”

Kiosked, start-up companies often hire Finland University graduates, but for experienced programmers, they tend to hire from abroad, but this is very difficult.

Paananen said the lengthy application process that caused disruptions to recruitment and potential employee may accept Silicon Valley, Berlin and Singapore. Paananen said, "obtaining residence and work permits can take up to six months ' time. In the technology sector, has always been in that situation. For the employee's spouse, the situation is even worse, and may never get to the license. ”

Mobile phones businesses's decline and the lack of alternative job is Finland the main cause of economic malaise, and the unemployment rate increased to 9%.

Microsoft has plans to reduce the mobile phone business, which infuriated the Finland Government. Finland Government has asked Microsoft to help unemployed workers find new jobs or start businesses.

Nokia and Microsoft have provided retraining schemes, as part of the demobilization benefits. Finland also allocate funds for training and to seek EU funding.

芬兰科技人才紧缺，但被诺基亚裁掉的员工却找不到工作 - 诺基亚 - IT资讯

6月15日消息，据路透社报道，芬兰的科技业曾经闻名全球，但诺基亚手机业务的没落并最终被微软收购导致1.5万人失业。如今芬兰因为找不到合适的科技人才，面临数千名软件工程师的空缺。但矛盾的是，该国的初创企业却不愿意聘用诺基亚的失业员工。

芬兰的科技公司表示，本国的移民政策对招聘国外有经验的员工造成了阻碍，这进一步打击了科技业的发展前景。而科技业常被视为促进停滞经济的一大复苏因素。

手游公司Supercell的CEO伊尔卡?帕纳宁(Ilkka Paanane)表示，“我们希望拥有最好的游戏开发者，但并不是所有优秀的开发者都来自芬兰。”Supercell公司仅雇用了180名员工，但去年其核心利润近10亿美元。

帕纳宁表示，“聘请世界上最优秀的人才来芬兰意味着最佳的时机，但无法聘请到合适的员工将对我们国家的发展带来很大的不利影响。”

根据芬兰软件业和企业家协会，芬兰的科技业大约需要7000名程序员。

芬兰对初创企业寄予厚望，尤其是手游公司。Supercell制作的《部落战争》和Rovio游戏开发商的《愤怒的小鸟》取得了全球性的成功。

小型的软件公司通常会寻找拥有特殊技能的员工，这类员工无需培训就能立即上岗。

这对诺基亚旧员工而言是个坏消息。

2008年，诺基亚占据全球手机行业40%的份额，但随着苹果和三星推出触摸屏智能手机，诺基亚的手机失去了吸引力。

2014年，微软以大约72亿美元收购诺基亚的手机业务。在收购前后，数以千计的高薪工程师丢了工作。

就在上个月，如今专注电信网络的诺基亚和微软宣布在芬兰将再裁员2400人。

然而，一些企业家表示，初创企业往往不愿意雇用曾在诺基亚等公司工作的员工，因为这类公司往往存在组织等级制度，而且员工的个体技能范围较窄。

广告自动化公司Kiosked的CEO Micke Paqvalen指出，“这未必是专业技能的问题，而是能否适应工作环境的问题。在快速变化的初创企业中工作不同于为大公司工作。”

Kiosked等初创公司通常会聘用芬兰的大学毕业生，但对于有经验的程序员，他们又倾向从国外聘请，但这很困难。

帕纳宁表示，冗长的申请程序导致招聘受阻，而潜在的受聘员工可能转而接受硅谷、柏林和新加坡的工作。帕纳宁说，“获得居留和工作许可可能需要长达六个月的时间。在科技业，一直都是这样的状况。对于员工的配偶，情况就更糟糕了，而且可能永远拿不到许可。”

手机业务的衰落以及可替代岗位的缺乏是芬兰经济萎靡的主要原因，导致失业率增至9%。

微软最近计划缩减手机业务，这激怒了芬兰政府。芬兰政府已要求微软帮助失业员工找到新工作或创业。

诺基亚和微软都提供了再培训计划，作为遣散福利的一部分。芬兰也拨出资金用于培训，并寻求欧盟的资助。
