Career Hunt
TALLINN 2019
The 2nd Career Hunt application period has ended. Thank you all for applying! We have selected the 25 finalists who will be flown to Tallinn, Estonia in May 2019.
Career Hunt rockets your IT career straight to the Nordic tech hub – Estonia. Apply, because we will fly the TOP 25 candidates from around the world to Tallinn, Estonia for an all-inclusive tech tour. You will meet the biggest IT wonders in the region and get VIP shortcuts for job interviews in selected companies!

The chosen candidates will:
- Get a unique 5-day-experience in Tallinn with free flights and accommodation
- Meet the potential dream employers and teams
- Get free access to local tech events, learn more about e-Estonia and our famous startup unicorns
- Have a taste of the after-work fun (a few hints: pure nature, traditional sauna sessions, white nights, craft beer & Nordic cuisine)
- Explore Estonia like a local and consider it a place for working and living
Named ‘the most advanced digital society in the world’ by Wired, Estonian people are pathfinders in IT. Tallinn is the birthplace of Skype and land of recent unicorns.
100% worth moving to
Estonia, one of Europe’s smallest countries, lies on the eastern coast of the Baltic Sea. Nestled between Sweden, Finland, Latvia and Russia, this relatively flat and stunningly green little country is about 50% forest, 20% wetlands, and 100% worth moving to. The environment is pure joy, because it has almost the cleanest air on the planet, according to the World Health Organization.


Achieve career goals faster than in other global hubs!
Climb up the career ladder faster and reach your professional goals in less time, with almost no organizational hierarchy limits. Glassdoor named Estonia as the best place to work in Europe (2016).
Estonia is a true digital society and the start-up nation of Europe. 99% of our state services are online so you can run your business, access government services and sign documents online – anywhere, anytime.
Fresh air, clean nature
According to World Health Organization, Estonia holds the 4th place in urban air quality in the world. Circa 50% of the country is covered with forest and pure nature is always close by. Tallinn has several sandy beaches and you can escape from the city noise in just 30 minute car drive.
Crime rates are low, people are relaxed and usually modest. Cyber security is such a hot topic that NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence is located in Tallinn.


Affordable and English is widely spoken
No other tech hub beats Tallinn when it comes to optimizing your monthly expenses. Our free public transport and healthcare leaves you more money to spend on things that matter to you. Apartment rent in Tallinn is 3 times cheaper than in Amsterdam and 8 times more affordable than in San Fransisco. English is widely spoken among the youth and in urban areas.
We do not say Estonia is perfect, but it is a pretty awesome place to work and live. One thing to consider is the weather. Winters can be very cold, up to -20° and snowy, but it is compensated by our loooooong summer days.
Close to everywhere
Member of the EU and the NATO, Estonia operates with Euros. It’s close to everywhere. 30 minutes flight to Helsinki, an hour to Berlin and 2,5 hours to London. It’s not a surprise that the number of international specialists coming to work and live in Estonia has more than doubled in the last 5 years.

There’s a new Veriff in town with a secure and hassle-free online identity verification solution that allows you to verify your identity without leaving your seat. Our innovative solution revolutionizes the way we use financial and other services.
Veriff is the new worldwide standard for building up trust on the internet. Whether it’s
someone you’re offering your home on Airbnb, the driver you’re hailing on Uber, or whom you’re buying from on Amazon, simply by using their passport and a camera we’ll verify the identity of those people in seconds. So instead of having to visit a bank to open an account, Veriff lets you do so from your own home, or even on the go. It is like a plug-in which online businesses can add to their website or mobile application. If needed, Veriff activates the camera and asks the person to show their identity document and capture a portrait photo.

We record a video, analyze security holograms, facial biometrics and hundreds of other parameters to guarantee the identity and trustworthiness.

From his painful experience, Monese was born – a banking service that was inclusive, instant and on-demand. Monese launched in September 2015 as the first 100% mobile current account in the UK.
Today, people from all over Europe can open a UK current account in minutes, free from the hidden fees and restrictions that legacy banks impose.
Not only did we want to make opening and using an account as easy as ordering an Uber, we also wanted to ensure it was accessible to everyone and not just a select few with perfect credit scores and several month’s worth of utility bill documentation.
Fast forward to the present day and we have opened tens of thousands of mobile only, on-demand current accounts for customers all over the UK and the wider EU, we’ve been officially named ‘Best Challenger-Bank’ in Europe and have even been awarded €1.1 million by the European Commission for research and innovation!
We’re also incredibly proud that the product we’ve created is improving the lives of so many customers that legacy banks fail to serve.
In September 2018, Monese secured $60 million in Series B Funding to support product development and international expansion. This funding round was led by Kinnevik, a global investor focused on digital businesses, with participation from PayPal, European investor Augmentum Fintech and International Airlines Group for its loyalty and data business Avios Group Ltd. Existing investors, including Investec’s INVC Fund, also participated.
With soon a million sign-ups, 75% of incoming funds being from salary payments, and a 9.2/10 TrustPilot score, Monese is one of the most popular and trusted banking services in the UK and Europe. Around 3,000 people sign up to Moneses daily and customers are moving over $3 billion each year through their Monese accounts.
Monese employs over 200 people across its offices in London, Tallinn, Lisbon and Berlin.
