Kimi Hakulinen, de 19 años, se gradúa en Tredu (escuela de formación profesional de Tampere, Finlandia) para ser maquinista. Los tres años de estudios los terminará con unas prácticas de 14 semanas en nuestra fábrica.

"He estado trabajando en el departamento de maquinaria. He hecho el cambio de piezas y el mantenimiento de la maquinaria. Mis conocimientos han aumentado considerablemente y parece que he aprendido más durante las prácticas que en la escuela. De la escuela obtuve la base y aquí he podido profundizar en la mano de obra. Tenía muchas ganas de ponerme a trabajar de verdad. El trabajo ha ido muy bien y siempre he podido pedir ayuda a los compañeros. Ha sido completamente diferente estar en el trabajo que en la escuela, y esa diferencia es importante que la entienda todo estudiante."

Job via internship

Koski tells, that it has been hard to find machinists for a while. That’s why Ingersoll Rand inquires students to recruit straight from teachers in local vocational schools in Tampere.


"Usually second grade students start here with an internship, then return as summer trainees and finally start working here with permanent contracts. This has turned out to be a good transition. During the internship we see if the person is suitable, and during the summer we educate the employee until they're almost ready professionals when the permanent job begins."


Tampere Ingersoll Rand factory has about 160 employees and almost all the time, there are students among them. Every student has their own counselor. The supervisor plans the introduction and the more experienced colleagues orient the recruits.

Kimmo Koski tells, that further education is also supported:


"For example, one employee has been working here a long time and now he's studying to be a mechanical engineer. I myself have also acquired a specialist qualification degree in management alongside work and through the degree, I got into a supervisor role."


For us, it is important that students graduate. When students finish their studies, they have great knowledge and skills.
