The International House was opened in 2018 as a collaborative project of many partners. The International House of Estonia provides information about everything related to working and living in Estonia for foreign specialists. It primarily offers consultation to foreigners arriving here, but also to companies. The consultations are provided by the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA), the Tallinn City Registry Office, the Enterprise Board, the Integration Foundation, the Unemployment Insurance Fund, and Work in Estonia advisors from Enterprise Estonia. In addition to individual consultations, group consultations are also held at the house. Besides consultation services, the International House of Estonia offers an educational program related to internationalization, language cafes, adaptation programs, and networking events for finding professional contacts.

Proekspert has attended tech conferences abroad with Work in Estonia and I’ve always admired their professionalism. The preparations have gone well and they are good at promoting Estonia and Estonian companies abroad. I’d also like to compliment their marketing skills, because the marketing campaigns are very interesting and creative. All in all, Work in Estonia’s contribution has been really valuable to us.

Director of Services, Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry

Work in Estonia has been a great partner to The Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. During the past few seasons, we’ve co-organized foreigner recruitment meetups. The meetups serve a basis to share experience among HR-specialists whose daily work is related to attracting foreigner specialists to Estonia and companies. Throughout organizing these events, we’ve witnessed the rising number of companies who are recruiting talent from abroad. We’ve also seen first hand how the community has benefited from experience sharing. Work in Estonia is the best possible example of public sector initiative, which helps companies in their core business. Their team is very professional and driven- it’s been a joy to work with them.
