In this episode, I'm excited to bring a guest from Wolt,
Finland's food delivery service, and my favorite app during
quarantine. She's here to talk to us about the nitty gritty of
hiring for tech roles, some tips and tricks for landing a job as
an immigrant in Finland, and how to stand out in the application
process.
