Aalto JobTeaser- Recruit a student

We retain the right to select the adverts to be published. Only advertisements that contribute to our students' career prospects by aligning with their education (degree program, university degree level) will be published.

• The advertiser holds responsibility for the advert's content. However, we reserve the right to modify the title and/or the targeting of the advert.
• The name of the employer must always be included. Adverts for temporary agency work must specify the client (the employer for whom the work is performed).
• We expect that the salary for a full-time internship will meet the work requirement of Kela (the Social Insurance Institution of Finland) (including a monthly salary of at least EUR 1 331 in 2023). Internships abroad are an exception. Nonetheless, the unpaid nature of international internships must be clearly indicated in their title (unpaid).
• We do not publish the following types of adverts:
  • adverts related to network marketing or voluntary work.
  • unpaid recruiting training programmes, or positions or internships that demand unemployment or threat of unemployment.
  • tasks that necessitate payment for application or result in unreasonable costs for the applicant.
  • adverts that violate Finnish law (e.g. Non-Discrimination Act, cf. native language v. language skills comparable to a native speaker) or government policies (Recommendation regarding cooperation with Russian organisations).

• Aalto JobTeaser has 8900 registered students, which corresponds to around 52% of all Aalto University students
• 58% of them have activated the Daily Job Alert
• Most active months for students are January and November and we also have the most job ads then (2022 data)
• A job ad gets roughly 32 clicks in Aalto JobTeaser (2022 data)
• In  2022 there were 10 762 job and internship ads published in Aalto JobTeaser (the amount includes job ads from Aalto JobTeaser and ads from Aarresaari JobTeaser, that were targeted to Aalto University) 

The most searched keywords in 2022 were:

• Thesis
• Math
• Ulkoministeriö
• Suurlähetystö
• Data
• Kesätyö
• Summer
• Trainee
• Design

• Focus on an informative Title for the ad. 
  The Titleshould be already as informative as possible. A title like "Trainee" doesn't stand out from the list or tell the students enough. We suggest to clarify it with, for example, the field of the duties, "Trainee (communications)" to increase your chances for the right students to find and get interested in your ad.
  The students can see the name of the employer in the listing, so you don't have to include the name of the employer in the title, unless this is a recruitment company ad. 
  Remember to also include the most searched words into your title if possible! .
• A clear and informative description is very important. 
  The description part should include all the details of your job ad. Just a link to your web page or a picture of the job ad is not enough. The students use the word search a lot, so make sure your description text includes all the important keywords. 
  Remember, that you can also add pictures, videos and other visuals to your ads!
  Please remember to also add here some contact information or a way for students to get more information about the position. The recruiter contact information is not visible for the students.
• JobTeaser shares their tips for a good job ad also in a video format. See the video in YouTube: JobTeaser Guide: How to write the perfect job ad? - YouTube

• Choose the correct contract type
  If your job is a summer job, please select Summer Job as contract type to increase possibilites of students finding your job. Also internships should be marked as Internship and not for example student jobs or fixed term positions. 
• Use all relevant tags 
  The students can sort ads with tags and they increase findablitiy significantly. 
  Aalto JobTeaser uses tags for each school, summer jobs, thesis ads, Aalto Talent Expo and jobs that do not require Finnish skills. 
• Use targeting to special courses carefully. 
  You can restrict the visibility of your ads to students of certain majors, but please notice that this selection really restricts the visibility of your ad to all other students. The students skills may well exceed their chosen major and you may lose relevant applicants. If using the targeting, we recommend always also selecting the School-level.
  If restricting the visibility to a certain major is not critical, we suggest using the tags instead. 
• Use the job language correctly 
  If the job requires Finnish skills, please mark the job as Finnish-speaking job. 

How can I make changes to my advert? 

You can edit your advert in JobTeaser. If you have forgotten your password, please use the link on the login page.

Why don’t you publish anonymous adverts? 

We want to ensure that our students have sufficient information when applying for a job and also prevent the visibility of fake adverts/employers.

Do you accept staffing and recruiting agencies’ adverts? 

Yes, we do. The advert must very clearly state the client’s name and that the position is temporary agency work. We recommend mentioning the client name already in the title.

We didn’t get enough applicants, what's next?

Start with the headline and description of the advert: are they appealing enough for the students? Are the required skills and content of the work clear for the reader? 

Check also other fields that they are correct: contract type, sector, function etc. Check also that the targeting is not too narrow.

The salary should also be competitive, and including the level of pay attracts applicants. 

Why was our ad rejected?

The reason can be found in the rejection email sent by JobTeaser. Most common reasons are that the salary information is missing from an Internship ad or that the nature of the job is not fitting to Aalto JobTeaser which is specialised in promoting jobs that match the fields taught at our University and also the level is suitable for University students.
