Job seeker services

The City of Riihimäki helps job seekers living in Riihimäki find jobs or study opportunities. We support you in implementing your personal employment plan, for example, in finding a job and a place to study, and in starting an employment relationship.

Job seeker services include job coaching, which we tailor to the customer's needs and wishes. We also offer summer jobs in the city for young people. The Riihimäki Recycling Center also operates as part of our employment services. There you can try a completely new field, test your own resilience or increase your work experience and skills.

We strive to connect job seekers and employers, which is why we work closely with local employers. We support both job seekers and employers in matching jobs and employees. We also work closely with educational institutions and the South Häme Employment Area (EHTA).

How do I get access to the city's job training?

The employment services offered by the City of Riihimäki are completely voluntary and free of charge for you. Our employment services complement the services of the employment area and meet your specific needs. We can discuss the issues you are thinking about once or start a multi-stage employment process with you, according to your wishes and needs.

If you would like to develop your employment opportunities with us, please send a message to tyollisyyspalvelut@riihimaki.fi.

Employment services in the South Häme employment area

Employment services have been part of the basic services of every municipality since the beginning of 2025. Until the end of 2024, employment services were provided by the state employment and economic development offices, or TE offices, which have been closed down. This change is called the TE reform. The city of Riihimäki organizes employment and business services together with the municipalities of Hausjärvi, Janakkala and Loppi. These four municipalities form the South Häme employment area, or EHTA.

You can find more information about the employment services, service points and contact information offered by the employment area on the website of the South Häme employment area:

What is the difference between the services of the employment area and the city of Riihimäki?

The South Häme employment area offers services that fall within the statutory duties of the employment authority. The city of Riihimäki also continues to offer its own employment-promoting services. Our employment services complement the services of the employment area and meet the needs of the residents of Riihimäki. We work closely with the South Häme employment area on employment matters.
