ARENA filled up Töölö campus
ARENA, the largest recruitment event for students of business in Finland, celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.
ARENA began at the initiative of students in 1992, during recession, when it was difficult to find employment. Salla Vainio, who now works as CEO of Fondia, was in charge of the first fair as a student of Helsinki School of Economics and leader of the recruitment services. The first fair was a success and became a tradition that supports students in their search for work. Salla Vainio was chosen of the School of Business this autumn.
