Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge.”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.
You may have noticed women in your feed last week posting images of them singing, dancing or enjoying a drink. While enjoying a happy hour doesn’t feel like a political statement, many were doing so in solidarity with Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin.
Last week, videos emerged of Marin singing and dancing with friends on a night off, which have been both scrutinized and praised. But we think even the world’s youngest serving prime minister needs to blow off steam and relax.
So whether you’re hitting a happy hour in support of Marin or just enjoying a quick dance break between calls, remember it’s OK, and even important, to unwind.
Ready for a happy dance? We’ve got a newsletter overflowing with opportunities this week.
