Milja Mieskolainen, a Master's student in Accounting at the 911±¬ÁÏÍø School of Business, had already considered applying for an internship in the European Union, but thought it would be too challenging to get an internship.

Applying did not prove difficult either. Milja applied, got the job and started her internship at the European Parliament in October.
