Where do you find the jobs?

Job searches can be divided into two categories: advertised and unadvertised positions. In the technical sector, companies often use networks to recruit new employees. Over 70% of employers prefer this method, so be sure to consider the possibility of open applications.

Advertised positions:

Most employers in the tech sector advertise positions on finn.no and LinkedIn.
Arbeidsplassen.no is also a good tool for finding vacancies, as it collects announcements from different platforms.

Unadvertised positions:

Use NITO's network to find the right contact person. Employee representatives in NITO can be a valuable resource for navigating different companies.
