I'm Maija Keskinen, I studied economics and business law at the School of Business. I graduated in 2017.
I knew I wanted to study economics. The opportunity offered by the School of Business to study the basics of other majors in the first year sounded like a good way to broaden my perspectives and also confirm my own major choice, which it did.
Studying at the School of Business was exciting, and some courses played quite a big role in shaping my career aspirations. The study community that formed during my studies provided a lot of peer support and variation to the grind. The best memories are from both ordinary study sessions and problem-solving sessions with classmates at the Töölö main building, and of course from many social gatherings at the KY building. Furthermore, exchange studies during the bachelor's phase and internships abroad during the master's phase were also a source of many, lifelong memories.
Alum Maija KeskinenIn the early stages of my career I changed jobs quite frequently as new, interesting opportunities arose. However, I now realize that each position has provided me with knowledge and experience that I continue to be useful.
My work involves a variety of tasks, but the main responsibilities include producing various calculations and other information to support decision-making, legislative drafting, and international cooperation efforts.
One challenge, which may not have resulted in any actual problems but was cautioned against for some reason, was the perception that my somewhat patchwork CV would be suspicious in the workplace. I enjoy learning new things and trying out different roles, so in the early stages of my career, I changed jobs quite frequently as new, interesting opportunities arose. However, I now realize that each position has provided me with knowledge and experience that I continue to be useful. I believe this enables me to view things more comprehensively from various perspectives.
Meaningful work to me means being able to serve society and do my part to ensure that decisions made in public administration are based on the highest quality information possible. I want to solve common problems and improve economic functioning, whether it's identifying and correcting the actions of individual actors that are harmful or preparing national-level regulatory instruments.
