Our Recruitment Process: 7 Steps

The recruitment process of Silk Road Workforce Management has evolved during the 10 years of operation. Now we can safely say that we are one of the leading providers of foreign workforce management solutions in Finland. Our program is designed to be efficient, with a clear order of steps and a focus on attracting the best talent. In this article, we’ll discuss about how the recruitment process works.

As Easy As Possible

Silk Road understands the importance of a smooth and easy recruitment process. We believe that complexity can deter talented candidates from applying and can ultimately result in the loss of the best candidates. Therefore, we have designed our program to be easy and straightforward.

Order of Recruitment Process

Our program follows a clear order of steps. This ensures that each candidate is evaluated based on the same criteria and that the process is fair and consistent. The 7 steps in our recruitment process are:

  1. Signing Up

To begin the journey with us, the candidates must sign up as a nurse or a caregiver for one of our weekly online orientations. The sign-up forms can be found from our website. After filling in the form, the applicants receive an email with links to attend one of the upcoming orientations via Zoom.

  1. Self-studies

In the orientation, the host will provide the participants the access to our self-study material. The material consists of different exercises, tasks and audio files. The purpose of the self-studies is to help the applicants master the basic skills of the Finnish language, including greetings, numbers and self-introduction.

  1. Document evaluation

After starting to learn the basics of Finnish language, it’s time to submit the documents for evaluation. This includes the diplomas or certificates of education, official transcripts of records, resumes and certificates of employment, if available. We will give instructions on how to submit the documents by e-mail.

  1. Interview

After the documents are evaluated and the applicant has turned out to be eligible, we will reach out to them via e-mail for scheduling an interview with one of our interviewers. The interviews are done online and the interviewees can choose a time slot that suits their schedules the best.

  1. Language Studies

Once the interview is passed and the documents are checked, the language training will start. Our classes are designed to be flexible and accommodate the applicants’ needs because we understand that the applicants’ schedules may be hectic. We will also provide one-on-one sessions with a teacher. Those sessions assist the students to improve their speaking skills.

  1. Picking an Employer

After approximately six weeks of study, we will guide the applicants through the residency permit process. The processing will be done during the language training. We will also pick a suitable employer together. After that the only thing left before flying to Finland is couching the applicants to get started with their everyday life in Finland!

  1. Arrival to Finland

Upon arrival in Finland, we will be waiting for the new employees to pick them up from the airport and take them to their new apartments. We will also assist in setting up bank accounts, registering with population services, and familiarizing with the new workplace. We are here to make the transition to the new home country as smooth as possible.

Recruitment Process of Silk Road

How Long is the Recruitment Process?

One of the most common questions the applicants have about the Silk Road recruitment process is how long it takes. While the length can vary depending on the language training and the residence permit processing time, we typically complete the recruitment process within 6 to 12 months.

  5. Im professional Nurse

  6. Matron Mazuru

    Good day. I did my interview on ,4 April. When should i expect to start language training?

  7. Hi Marilyn!
    Our system says that you did not pass the initial interview but that you scheduled another interview on the 12th of May (not day of interview but day of scheduling). Is this correct?

  8. Hi!
    Once you pass the interview and your documents have been checked and approved the language training will begin. This also includes the one on one training!
    Good luck!

  9. Tawanda Bryne Mapfuwa

    Hyvää iltaa, I have done my interview on the 27th of April and passed, but I’m getting the “missing documents emails” and I have provided all the required documents, twice. Please kindly update me what should be the problem.

    I’m so enthusiastic and motivated about the language training and hopefully your team will resolve this soon. Kiitos paljon.
    Kind regards

  10. Hi Tawanda!
    I have looked into your submissions and I think the problem is that there is no OTR. The official transcript of records must outline what was included in your certification and the hours of study in the certification. This is for us to validate if the certification in question makes you eligible to join or not.

  11. Tawanda Bryne Mapfuwa

    Hyvää päivää, I have submitted the OTR in both instances. I’m now clueless on what I should do. I can try to resubmit again today or is there another way possible can I submit it?
    Kind regards.

  12. I worked on kit guide study the staff from chapter one to eight is to much as we are leaners of the language before the interview date

  13. Hi Sidra!
    We have added you to the system manually now so you should be receiving the orientation links momentarily!

  14. Hi!
    The study kit ensures that our recruits are showing real interest in the program. Since Silk Road does not charge our recruits anything for the language studies we have to make sure that only the applicants with the most will to learn are signed up.

  15. Angeline Madzima

  22. Hi Pia!
    I can see in our system that you still had some documents missing and should have received an email containing a link to submit missing documents.

  23. Hi Angeline!
    Our document checking team has not yet gotten to your documents.
    Don’t worry about the medical documents until after you have started your language training.

    You will be notified if your documents have been approved or incase something is missing.

  24. Hi!
    We have moved away from the study kit and have started offering a more streamlined learning experience on our online language learning platform.
    I will ask our language team to send you an invite to join the new learning platform.

  25. Hi!
    We have recently moved away from the study kit to an online learning platform.
    I will ask our language team to sign you up to the platform and send you a link o create an account there!

  26. Cherry Antonette Florita

    Hello,

    I had my initial interview last week (May 16th). Will I receive a confirmation if I pass? And if so, when will I have my groupings for the Language training? I already sent my documents and I received an email saying all my documents are approved. Please let me know the next step.

    Thank you!

  27. Hi Cherry!
    I just checked our system and…
    You passed you interview!
    all your documents have also been approved! You will receive your language group in the coming week and start language training!
    Congratulations and good luck with the language training!

  28. Hi Sir Simon,

  29. Alvie Joy Lumancas

    Hi Simon! Hope you are well.
    Kindly look into the status of my application. I have appeared for an interview last May 3. I would like to know if there is any update on my application. Happy to help with any further details if required. Will be waiting for your reply. Thank you so much.

  30. Hi Alvie!
    I can see that you passed your interview. Most likely you are currently in the document checking queue.
    I checked your submitted documents and everything looks good to me. You will be receiving your language groupings next week would be my guess.

    Please leave another comment if you have not received your language group next week!

  31. Ofelia hufana

  32. Hello my name is patience chifamba l have been sturding with self kid for Finnish language not in the new group of online studies thank you

  33. Hi!
    Yes if you are not qualified you will receive a message stating this. Once your documents have been checked you will either receive your interview booking link or your letter of rejection incase you did not qualify.

  34. Hi. This is Pia Marie. I have submitted my documents twice already and I have not received any updates to proceed with the interview. Please let me know the status of my uploaded documents. Thank you!

    I could not find your name in our interview list. I will check to see if one of our interviewers forgot to submit your results.

  37. Abdulkareem Rukayat

    Good day sir/ma’am
    I have fill in the form for the orientation and said I should download zoom and I did that but no response please what should I do

  38. Stephen Baafi Adomako

    Good morning Dear sir/Madam, My name is Stephen , a Registered Nurse from Ghana. please I want to find out if I must do the self studying assessment before I can book for the interview? Again, will the interview be based on the resume one had provided or the learning materials of Finnish language? Lastly, I was asked to provide a Certificate of employment, but I don’t have it because in Ghana here the employee is given an appointment letter instead. Kindly help me on that? Thank you. And looking forward to hearing from you?

  39. Hi!
    Before being able to book the interview you will need to have your documents approved. The interview will be based on the self studies and be a simple language assessment to check if you have done your part and done the self studies.

    If you are not able to get a certificate of employment it is possible to substitute it with a copy of your work contract and your latest paycheck to prove your work.

    I hope this helps!
    Good luck!

  40. Hi!
    After downloading zoom try pressing the link for the orientation again. Also make sure you are present a few minutes before the orientation starts and make sure you convert the times to your local time zone.

  41. Goodday Sir/madam,
    I want to find out at what point is one required to submit international passport. Because in my region, it takes a while before the passport is released I already applied for it since May 2023. It takes like 3 months but I have other documents. Can I still proceed with the application with your organization? I will be expecting your reply.

  42. Hi!
    Great question.
    We require the passport to be submitted before you can begin language studies. Doing your initial self studies, having your documents checked and your language assessment/interview can take anywhere from 4-8 weeks depending on queues and your own speed of learning the language. We require the passport to be submitted in the Detailed information form that you fill out. This is done early in the process. Before the documents are approved you are not able to have your interview.

    I would recommend to ensure your documents are in line with our requirements and then wait until your passport arrives and sign up for the program. Alternatively you can sign up now and do your self studies while waiting for your passport and state that your passport will arrive later in the detailed information form. You will then receive a form to submit missing documents. You can wait with submitting this until you receive your passport.

    I hope this helps!

  43. Getahun Gorfu

    I am Getahun Gorfu, a public health professional with more than 8 years of experience in healthcare from primary healthcare unit to a general hospital level. I am competent enouvh to work as a nurse or care giver. How shall I contact you.

  45. Akpoigbe Ruona

    Hello silkroad, I haven’t received my self study kit yet. I attended the orientation class on Wednesday and uploaded my documents today. Why haven’t I received the self study kit?

  46. Daniel Kwabena Sekyere

    Moi Simon. I am currently on my self studies and I have high interest in the Finnish language. Se on kiva.
    I want to ask, will there be a Finnish Language certificate provided after the language training?
    Also I submitted my detailed documents last week but haven’t heard from you. Please can you check on your system for me if it’s approved?

  47. Hi Daniel!
    Great that you find the Finnish language to be intriguing!
    Document checking usually takes 2-3 weeks. As of right now your documents have not yet been checked.
    We only issue certificates in certain cases when the employer that you have signed a contract with is requesting one.

  48. Hi!
    Make sure to check your spam folder and all info folder. IF you have received the detailed information form then you should be receiving your self study invitation from NLRC shortly

  49. David Albert

    Hi, Can somebody please tell how to make the first 1 on 1 appointment with silk road recruitment?

  50. Hi!
    You will not be able to book any 1 on 1 appointments before your documents have been approved. At that point you will be sent a link to book your interview. Later you will also have access to 1 on 1 meetings with your teacher. However, this only happens once you have been placed in a language learning group.

  51. I did my orientation on the 14 of June but until now I haven’t received any self study kit ,I checked in the promotion and sparm there’s nothing pliz help

  54. Hi Ivy!
    Once your documents are approved you will be added to a language learning group and sent an email with more information.

  55. Hi!
    During the orientation you are supposed to fill out a consent form.
    After filling out the consent form you will be sent an email from NLRC to create your account on our language learning platform.

  60. My school made mistake on my official transcript by putting last name which is not mine.but certificate has both names of mine .Will that cost me or will that lead to my disqualification coz I already sent documents. I contacted my school they are working on this soon .

  61. Hi!
    We do not count medical laboratory work as relevant experience for this program, sorry.

  62. Hi!
    If the names do not match up there is a high certainty that you will be deemed not eligible.

  63. the consent form is not something that you download. The consent form is filled out during the orientation. If you didn’t fill it out during the orientation you can either be in contact with our support team over Facebook direct messages or retake the orientation and make sure to fill it out this time.

  64. If your IP has been banned we recommend using a different network and device to submit your documents.

  65. Hi!
    There is no need to attend several orientations. The interview is conducted once you have completed the self studies and your documents have been approved.

    The consent form needs to be filled in during the orientation. The link is handed out during the orientation. I recommend joining another orientation and paying close attention so you don’t miss the link to the consent form. Alternatively you can contact our support team on discord and they will confirm that you have attended an orientation and you will then be resent the consent form link.

  107. Richard Agyenim-Boateng

    Hi Simon. You didn’t respond to my message. I did my interview and I want to know my status .

  108. Simon you have not be responding to my message. Interview done, passed, missing documents requested and sent immediately.

    Why the delay in grouping. Basically am very sure apart from a document missen and sent am qualified as a registered nurse with practical license to show

  109. Hi Oluwafemi!
    Your documents have been approved and you are queued up to start language training. The delay in language training grouping is due to the limit on the amount of students per language group. Once the limit is hit the rest of that weeks passed people will be added to the language group starting the week after that. If that group is also full already then they start the week after that and so on.

    I have asked the document team to check on your application and they will be in contact with you soon!

    Good luck in the language training!

  110. Simon thanks a lot . Have been responded to. Certificate they requested from me was the french copy not translated copy which had been sent few minutes ago. Please kindly ensure it has been seen. Thanks

  121. Hi Simon! Hope you are well. Please I had my interview on the 24th of July 2023 and I got an email stating I should upload my Medical documents! Please does it mean I passed? And I have not joined any study group yet. Please how do I enjoy a study group? Thank you so much.

    Hi Simon, I have received an email yesterday saying that my certificate is missing, please how is that possible after my documents are approved, passed my interview and awaiting for my language training. I have re- submitted my certificate, kindly check and get back to me. Thanks.

  123. Hi!
    Currently we are having a lot of recruits start language training and our batches are filling up fast. If you have passed the interview and had your documents approved you will be signed up to the next available language study batch that is not yet full. It might take a couple weeks but you can be certain that you will receive your study group soon enough!

  124. Hi!
    Yes this means you passed. Congratulations!

    It might take 2-3 weeks before you hear about the starting date of your language group as our groups are filling up very fast at the moment.
    You do not have to upload your medical documents before after your language group has started.

    Good luck in the language studies!

  125. Hi!
    Make sure you join at the right time. The times are in EEST time zone so you will need to convert it to your local time zone to make sure you show up during the correct time. Make sure you are in the waiting room a few minutes before the orientation is supposed to start to make sure you will get a space in the orientation.

    Me an email regards the outcome of the interview.i have not heard from her regarding the next step to follow.. Please,what is the way forward and the interview status if I passed it or not ?I will be glad to read back from you as soon as possible.Thanks

  146. TERVE! I attend the orientation last May 23 2023, and due to some reasons, my interview was delayed. I made an effort to study the language furthermore and my second interview is scheduled for August 30th. My question is, am I still eligible because I was affected by the new document rules starting July 1? Or can I still apply because I remember on you last live Q n A on June 14 streaming you mentioned that those who applied “BEFORE THE NEW RULES IN July 1 WON’T BE AFFECTED” I only have 300 hours of study as a nursing assistant and 4 years of experience as a nursing assistant in a hospital here in Qatar. Please respond Thank you.”

  147. Hyvää huomenta,

  154. Hey! I see you had your result already because you attended the interview again this week. You passed your interview now so congratulations!

  155. Hey! Unfortunately, we had a little technical difficulty with the medical form earlier. However, you should have received another e-mail message from us with a correct link!

  156. Matthew Olasoju

    Terve,
    Have uploaded my medical documents on the link sent to my email.

    But after the uploads I didn’t get any confirmation on the website confirm if the uploading was successful or received.

    Could you confirm for me if it has been received ?

    Thanks.

    Matthew

  157. Hey Henrieta! The issue with your application is similar to many others at the moment. Usually, we receive a diploma issued by the institution where one has done the studies. It’s different compared to a certificate of registration. We have not had situations before where the school doesn’t actually give the graduated people diplomas. But we are investigating the situation and trying to find out if the residence permit application is possible to be processed with the kind of diploma you are providing us. We are also in the process of verifying those documents from the institutions which issue them. So, unfortunately, we are not able to proceed with your application before we have solved these issues!

  158. Hey! Unfortunately, in a case where someone has missing documents, the new submission will go to the back of the queue of all the documents. That’s why it takes some time again to receive an answer. Anyhow, we will contact you as soon as we get your documents checked. It should happen within 3 weeks of the missing documents submission.

  170. Hi simon I am Amsal kahssay my interview on October 26 passed and congratulations
    Email message Olmost 4weeks still not added to language group plis forward to hearing from you soon thanks

  171. Harriet Ufuoma Kukoyi

    Moi Simon,
    Mitä sulle kuuluu?
    Happy New year. I must really commend Silkroad and workforce for a wonderful job. Improving the lives of people.
    Great job.
    Can I please know at what point we get the pre- endorsement? Would really appreciate it

  172. I have a question: Is it feasible for married applicants to be placed in the same group? Additionally, could you provide information on how the process will unfold once we have successfully completed the NLRC required exams for employment in Finland? My husband and I submitted our applications simultaneously for this program. While I have received my groupings, he has not. Assuming everything goes smoothly and we both secure employment there, we are interested in residing in the same city. Is this a possibility?

  173. Hi Charis!
    Yes this is possible in many cases but depends on the decisions of the language training.
    I would recommend you to start language training and express this wish to your teachers. They can then place you in your husbands group once he has been given his group.

    When it comes to where you will be deployed you can express your wish to be deployed in the same city and we try to accommodate those wishes wherever possible, especially when it is a husband and wife. Assuming you both are able to finish the language training at the same time I am sure the chances are good that you are placed together.

    Good luck!
