Investing in your future: How to stay financially fit? - She’s passionate about helping others develop that same clarity. As a financial consultant at Career Club Denmark, Diana now supports other internationals by organizing events and offering practical guidance. “It’s so important to have a space where you can ask questions, share experiences, and learn how things work in Denmark without feeling lost or alone.” Every month, she and her partner sit down for a “money date” to review their spending and plan for the future. “It’s a habit that helps us stay aligned, especially when we’re thinking about bigger expenses like vacations or insurance. It turns budgeting into something proactive and empowering instead of stressful.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/907a2194-a64f-46fd-af69-87a9e9a14f7f/20250808_141934+%281%29.jpg Insights - Investing in your future: How to stay financially fit? - She’s also quick to point out that while there is a lot of financial guidance available in Denmark, it often requires initiative. “No one will take you by the hand. The information is there, but you have to seek it out, interpret it, and take action.” Any final words of wisdom? For her, the biggest lesson has been that financial fitness isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being prepared, curious, and open. “If there’s a problem, I always remind myself there are at least ten possible solutions. You just need to look at it from a different angle. That mindset has helped me in both life and money.” https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/budget-friendly-cph monthly 0.5 2025-09-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/b0fda981-abea-4f7a-bb3b-f2d31b40a249/high-life.png Insights - Living the High Life: Budget-Friendly Things to Do in Copenhagen - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/breaking-the-glass-ceiling monthly 0.5 2025-08-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/2609324f-316c-47d6-be50-828d205c6104/womenin-male-dominated-industries.png Insights - Where Are the Women?

Perfect. Cybersecurity Still Needs You. - Why she built Women4Cyber and kept the door open… Bianca founded the Danish chapter of Women4Cyber, not to create another tight club, but to open things up. “We focus on advancing women in cyber. It’s open to everyone. It’s not just for women. We’re not exclusive. We don’t want to create a closed club.

Louise is certified in the People Test System and the personal talent test “Play Your Talent.” She’s a seasoned Danish recruiter and talent consultant with a passion for connecting people and companies in meaningful, lasting ways. Here’s her take on what so many of us are feeling: As a recruitment consultant, I often meet candidates—both international and Danish—who struggle with not feeling 'enough,' lack motivation, and fear rejection. These feelings are completely normal, especially when navigating a new job market and an unfamiliar work culture like Denmark’s. The key is to start small: gain clarity on your strengths, take one concrete action, and most importantly—seek feedback and support from someone you trust. The Danish job market can seem closed, but with the right mindset and a solid strategy, you can create your own entry point. Confidence builds over time—and it starts with recognizing that you’re already on the right path. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/6b9b5f1c-b70c-49a6-a4c7-4756e1b39a3f/2+-+Nischa+Don+Maak.jpg Insights - “Am I good enough?” Yes, you absolutely are and you’re not alone - We also got valuable insights from our Career Club DK Founder, Nischa Don Maak, a Danish Career Coach, Keynote Speaker, Community Builder, and a pro for crafting a standout CV. Nischa says that job hunting can often stir up a cocktail of frustration, insecurity, and self-doubt. That’s why having a smart strategy is key — not just to boost effectiveness, but also to make the process less soul-crushing and more empowering. Nischa suggests starting by getting crystal clear on the roles you're aiming for. From there, identify the transferable skills you bring to the table and how they align with the requirements of those roles. Once you’ve mapped that out, it’s time to level up your CV and LinkedIn profile — tailoring both to reflect the type of positions you're targeting, and crafting a solid base cover letter that can be adjusted for specific job ads. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/jenns-creative-journey-from-california-to-denmark-soon monthly 0.5 2025-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/0bceb3f9-a5a7-46d3-ad9b-41d1dde2d6ff/Jenn_April_interview.png Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1743437523102-IZDAMKP5RLUIRFZPKJ50/IMG_0204.jpeg Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1743437523747-THVDV7RLD3TZITZANL2E/IMG_0132.png Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1743437524897-QGKLA3LGFLBYRZO4PLQ0/IMG_0210.jpeg Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1743437526687-7U1SAT1XXRSTTYFCXETO/IMG_1934.png Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1743437527409-NXQ8442ZZ346ZHS2HQB7/IMG_2859.png Insights - Jenn’s Creative Journey: From California to Denmark (Soon!) https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/what-if-you-dont-have-a-dream-job-how-to-find-something-that-works-for-you monthly 0.5 2025-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/cfb523bd-b3ad-4a07-b43b-0b411918ba83/April_article.png Insights - What If You Don’t Have a Dream Job?

It starts with creating a home within where we feel that we are fully accepted by ourselves for who we are. That includes being completely attuned with our emotions, radically accepting all our parts - the funny, the insecure, highs and the lows, and especially the parts that we tend to exclude and ostracize because we believe that they won't be accepted by society. The next step is being aware of what I'm feeling right now in my body, what my emotions, needs, and desires are. Self-awareness is the first step of feeling connected with ourselves. Only then can we be attuned with others about their needs, emotions and inner-experiences because we can recognize them in ourselves first. When we come from that space of being completely accepted from the inside out, then we can be vulnerable. There´s no true connection without vulnerability. That allows us to create a safe space where whatever relationship we happen to be in can flourish. Presence is another important element. Whenever you are in proximity of somebody, be an active, curious listener who shows genuine interest for the other person. All that allows for trust building, empathy and emotional intimacy, from which we can feel safe to set and sustain the boundaries that honor our worth and the relationship we are building. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/de3f3e1b-b2d2-46e9-a25a-d91e4c048eac/Linet+2.jpeg Insights - Interview With Linet Sanchez - It's a very hard decision because when you find yourself standing out in a way that even your closest friends ask you: ‘Are you crazy? Are you sure this is the right thing to do?’ This is when you start doubting yourself. In that moment it is up to us to decide whether we want to live our life in the way we want or if we want to live the life that others dictate for us. It's not going to be comfortable to let others control you. If we are going for comfort, then you better stick to the norm and rely on external validation. If you are really willing to take the rough and bumpy road of living your life on your own terms, you will have to sometimes make decisions that will need a lot of patience before we see any results. In the end, you can validate yourself and say: ‘This was worth it.’ I am in that space right now. I would like to share that when I quit my job last year, it was a decision that came from my heart and I didn't have any plan B or a real idea of how I was going to achieve what I wanted. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/54560791-6dce-40e4-b634-6320d3a73fd6/Linet.jpeg Insights - Interview With Linet Sanchez - Linet’s advice: What I would recommend to do first and foremost is to design the life you want to live, your own life on your own terms. Don't worry about how you're going to reach it, just start by defining that life. Which values do you want to live up to? Which principles? Define what success means to you. Because success, just like happiness, is a buzzword and everybody interprets it according to their values. It's up to each of us to determine what that means and think of how we can achieve it. If I am measuring my success according to the meaning that the term has for you, I'm going to be living your life and I want to live mine, because we only live once.

Take time to explore your new surroundings, immerse yourself in the local culture, and build connections in the communities around you. Allow yourself to settle in gradually, and be kind to yourself during the transition. Focus on interests, join a club, network or class. Learn a new skill perhaps? Danes can sometimes be reserved when it comes to forming new connections, but if you approach with patience and focus on building genuine relationships through shared interests, the transition can feel much smoother. By engaging in activities you enjoy and connecting authentically, you'll find it easier to create meaningful bonds. It's also helpful to remember that Danes often plan their social interactions weeks in advance, usually 2-4+ weeks out, and they commonly use week numbers for scheduling. You can ease into this habit by enabling the week number feature on your calendar, making it easier to align with their scheduling style and plan social activities more smoothly.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/849f8110-4d0f-4209-81de-83398c2abe0a/1BB4AE76-DEDA-4749-9C59-719681C96FEE+-+Iasmyn+Ferreira.jpg Insights - Meet the 2024 Fall/Winter Advisory Board! - Part of the Events Team and a new advisory board member: What is your best relocation tip? “Prepare for situations in advance, especially if they involve money. Focus on your mental health and well being. For me, having a support system was also important on a more emotional level. Don’t give up when hearing a “no”. Once I heard that the difference between a loser and a winner is that the winner tried one more time and I truly believe in it. In addition, understanding the “system” of the country, such as laws, tax, your rights etc is very very helpful for you to be in control of your life. I highly recommend it, always. Lastly, have fun, difficult moments will come but after they pass you will see how much you grew out of them. And remember your story can ALWAYS inspire others in a positive way. ” What is your favorite thing to do in Denmark? “Hygge time ” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/5df6e028-b683-47f8-8e30-f72a00e6c045/SO6+-+Shade_+Osifuye.jpg Insights - Meet the 2024 Fall/Winter Advisory Board! - Part of the Community Team and a new advisory board member: What is your best relocation tip? “Start the home search early and/or see if your company has temp accommodations until you find permanent housing.” What is your favorite thing to do in Denmark? “Go to nature where I can be with the sea and trees.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/bfd57435-abd7-43e7-ba20-ba79823d0ce3/PXL_20240912_191856918.NIGHT%7E2+-+Judy+Cohen.jpg Insights - Meet the 2024 Fall/Winter Advisory Board! - Part of the Newsletter Team and one of our seasoned advisory board members: What is your best relocation tip? “Take things slowly..

Cost of Living: It's essential to understand the high cost of living in Denmark, including rent, utilities, and other expenses. Salaries should be evaluated to ensure they are sufficient to cover these costs. Transportation Costs: Consider expenses for commuting, fuel, tools and vehicle maintenance, especially if living outside major cities like Copenhagen, Odense, Ålborg etc’. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1f7a3123-9176-4e29-8760-3846f60b1846/Emily+Wiberg+Sode+-+sofa+%281%29.JPG Insights - 5 Must-Read Interviews You Might Have Missed This Summer - “Having lived as both a man and a woman, I bring a different sensitivity to user experience design. This experience combined with my natural empathy for others, helps me understand diverse user needs more profoundly, which I believe sets me apart in my field.” Emily also spoke of how her personal transformation was closely intertwined with her professional journey, navigating a career change in a highly specialized field: “It was crucial for me to choose companies that were proactive about diversity and inclusion. If a company isn’t supportive or isn’t interested in fostering an inclusive environment, it’s best to look elsewhere.” “This personal and professional alignment was critical.” “The best way to advocate for change is by simply being yourself. My approach to activism is not about making every interaction a statement but about living my truth and letting that be a form of advocacy in itself. If a company didn’t emphasize these values, it was a clear sign that it wasn’t the right fit for me.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/8c59eca6-2d5f-44eb-8740-914dc8818a03/Louise+LI+photo.jpg Insights - 5 Must-Read Interviews You Might Have Missed This Summer - She emphasized the importance of a compelling headline and summary, as well as the often missed opportunity of the ‘Featured’ Section: “Your headline should quickly convey who you are and what you do. Your summary is your chance to tell your story- what drives you, what your strengths are, and what you’re looking for.” “Keep the ‘About' section clear and concise. Use bullet points to quickly convey who you are, your professional journey, and your aspirations. Tell recruiters what you've accomplished, what you're aiming for, and what is your dream job. Don't be afraid to use emojis strategically to capture attention and inject personality into your profile.” “The ‘Featured’ is often overlooked, but it’s valuable real estate. Use this section to showcase your best work, articles you’ve written, or projects you’ve completed. It’s a great way to make a strong impression and stand out.” Louise also spoke of the importance of filling out all the sections: experience, education, and skills, as well as the recommendations and endorsements: “Use bullet points to make your experience easy to read. Don’t just list duties—focus on achievements and how you added value in each role.” “Reach out to colleagues, clients, and supervisors for recommendations. These add credibility and showcase your professional relationships.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/9458a56a-fcb2-4d59-b906-afb077619c34/headshot.jpg Insights - 5 Must-Read Interviews You Might Have Missed This Summer - Finding community, according to Rosa, can be challenging at first: “For the first two years, I was a bit unsure why I didn’t have many Danish friends. After that, I stopped trying to understand the Danes because maybe it is equally hard for them to understand us (internationals). It’s fair. I was expecting to arrive and be accepted but it can also be challenging to let others into your home country and friendship group. I came to good terms with that.” But there are ways to create that community: “It’s about being open and ready to connect. We do not need to join a random club and pretend to like it if we don’t. Instead, allow yourself to be open to the world, and the community will come to us if we just let it happen.” “My network here is ex-colleagues from university, and friends from parent groups, from being part of a book club, and other fellowships. Some are Portuguese, some are not.” Rosa also mentions CCDK, and how important it is for women to work together instead of against one another: “Often, women tend to fight with each other – in any country – instead of teaming up, like men do so often. Career Club DK is the opposite of this. It’s a place where we help each other grow, and to acknowledge that we all have value.” In addition, Rosa offers a few words of wisdom about adapting to a different culture, the balance between work and life, and the importance of giving back when you can: “Whatever we brought in our luggage to Denmark (perhaps thinking we know it all?), we should be reminded to learn things from scratch, especially in dealing with people in a new city.” “Don’t be afraid to ask questions. In some cultures, it may be considered rude to do so. In Denmark, that is not the case – it’s seen as curiosity and showing interest in the work.” “My aspiration for tomorrow or in five years is that I have the right balance for my life. As long as I feel the right balance between my work, my family, and myself as a unique person, then I will be happy. I want to keep a balance between the professional and the personal aspects of my life at all times.” “Growth and advancements in the career go hand in hand with personal development. I am responsible for my own wellbeing and for what makes me feel happy and fulfilled. It is also healing, growing, advancing, and having fun. This can only have a positive impact on my job.” “The reason why I wanted to join is because I believe it’s important to help when we don’t need anything (such as with work) – we can simply give back. I gain community from the people within Career Club DK, and my interest at this point is to give back and share my experience.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/313643b8-b19d-468f-82b0-78fbb0082ae6/Hummelgren2.jpg Insights - 5 Must-Read Interviews You Might Have Missed This Summer - Daniela emphasizes the important of gaining confidence by practicing speaking Danish: “Set yourself up for success and set small, achievable goals. Choose a situation where you can predict the conversation topics and prepare for it in advance… Choose topics that interest you.” She shares interesting facts about the Danes speech habits: “Danes add many English words into their day to day conversations without even noticing it. So in a way, adding in English words makes you sound more native rather than less.” “Danes often don't understand each other!” The power of community building and networking seems to be an important factor even in language learning: “People group around their hobbies and sports and it is a great way to get to know new people and make friends in a natural way. Everybody is welcome and there are often also social events that offer possibilities for networking or testing your Danish.” “I want to highlight the importance of these social networks, not only for language practice but also for building a sense of belonging.” Lastly, Daniela also shares her insights when it comes to starting a business, coming up with the right strategy and building crucial habits for independent business owners: “Start by identifying a real need in the community… Focus on providing value and building relationships rather than just making a profit. Networking is also crucial. Attend events, join professional groups, and connect with other entrepreneurs. Lastly, be patient and persistent. Building a successful business takes time and effort, but the rewards are well worth it.” “Time management and organization are great things to master. Set realistic goals for yourself and assume that everything will take longer than expected. Be adaptable and open to feedback… The ability to pivot and make improvements based on client needs and market trends can make a significant difference in your business’s success.” “It’s important to stay connected with friends and family, and engaging in hobbies outside of work helps maintain a healthy balance.” “Celebrate small victories and don't be afraid to make mistakes. They are a natural part of the learning process.” https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/118xls47im1hauo63gu1gw6v51ras6 monthly 0.5 2024-08-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/d8682dd4-bb5e-4eb2-97f5-50baec1b75d8/Newsletter+interview+cover+to+Blog+-2.png Insights - Interview with Anastasija Loseva - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/afc23f63-45c4-45af-afb6-011356d08064/IMG_3392.jpeg Insights - Interview with Anastasija Loseva - What advice do you have for others planning to move to Denmark, especially regarding personal budgeting? Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all thIf you’re considering moving to Denmark, one crucial piece of advice is to be fully aware of the cost of living. Prices for everyday items, groceries, and dining out can be quite high compared to what you might be used to. Careful budgeting is essential to manage these expenses effectively. Transportation is another significant factor. Whether you’re commuting or using public transport, these costs can quickly add up. If you’re living outside Copenhagen, it’s even more important to keep an eye on these expenses as they can be higher. Factor transportation costs into your budget to avoid surprises. Managing subscription services is also key. It’s easy to forget about ongoing subscriptions, which can gradually accumulate and impact your budget. Regularly reviewing and adjusting your subscriptions can help you keep your finances under control. Make sure your salary aligns with your expected living expenses. It’s crucial to review your financial situation regularly to ensure it meets your needs. Also, don’t forget to manage your subscriptions and recurring payments. Regularly checking and adjusting these can prevent overspending.e difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/6427eaea-198b-47a8-8a97-b3d70f6cf3b7/IMG_1496.jpg Insights - Interview with Anastasija Loseva - Why do you emphasize the need for professional advice? The financial landscape in Denmark is quite different from other countries, and there are specific regulations and tax laws that you need to comply with. A financial advisor can help you navigate these regulations and avoid costly mistakes. For instance, understanding the implications of various tax rates and deductions can make a significant difference in your financial planning. It's better to consult with someone who knows the ins and outs of the system rather than trying to figure it all out by yourself. How are you finding life in Denmark now, and what support has been valuable for you? Now that we’ve settled in, I’m very happy with life in Denmark. The quality of life here is excellent, and the supportive community has made a big difference. Career Club DK has been particularly valuable, offering resources and networking opportunities that have helped us navigate the transition smoothly. I’m looking forward to continuing our journey in Denmark and embracing the new opportunities that lie ahead. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/dxpx2hu0748dvnmpbn9l4wf4gjt5is monthly 0.5 2024-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/39a55c2e-2e71-49ce-a8ed-a4bb6351e0a1/Monthly+Book+review+%281%29.png Insights - September Book Review - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/thriving-as-an-international-wonder-woman-in-denmark-unions-a-kasser-and-navigating-the-workforce-with-style monthly 0.5 2024-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/55101358-dbde-4640-bcdf-f5b236347376/Articles.png Insights - A Brief Guide On Unions, A-Kasser, And Danish Employment Law - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/ab850589-e787-4cee-bc97-89becaf9957a/andra-c-taylor-jr-zEnKqspsObc-unsplash.jpg Insights - A Brief Guide On Unions, A-Kasser, And Danish Employment Law - Beyond collective bargaining, unions in Denmark provide a plethora of services to their members. Legal advice on employment matters, assistance during disputes with your employers, and continuous professional development courses are just the tip of the iceberg. Unions also facilitate networking events and workshops, enabling international women to connect with like-minded professionals and industry leaders. These interactions can be invaluable for career advancement and personal growth in a new country.

Here’s a primer on key aspects that are particularly relevant: 1. Contract Types In Denmark, employment contracts can be either indefinite (permanent) or fixed-term. Permanent contracts do not have an end date and offer more job security, while fixed-term contracts are for a specific duration with an end date. Additionally, there are also part-time contracts for those not working full-time hours and freelance or consultant contracts for independent workers. Understanding your contract type is essential as it determines your rights regarding termination, benefits, and working hours. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/7-considerations-when-making-a-career-change-to-another-industry monthly 0.5 2024-07-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1722178140572-T2JS1QAV0FW5X1XJXE0O/unsplash-image-XeRGWOAr53c.jpg Insights - 7 Considerations When Making a Career Change to Another Industry - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/navigating-career-transformations-emilys-journey monthly 0.5 2024-07-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/33b3eec5-4ee5-42c9-9770-192f5e776937/Newsletter+interview+cover+to+Blog+.png Insights - Navigating Career Transformations: Emily's Journey - Make it stand out Role: Service / UX Designer at Sikkerhedsstyrelsen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/f047f725-82d6-4aa7-8aa2-e65ab723c795/Emily+Wiberg+Sode+-+sofa+%281%29.JPG Insights - Navigating Career Transformations: Emily's Journey - The Importance of a Supportive Network Emily’s success is a testament to the power of a supportive professional network.

My network has helped me navigate the complexities of my career and personal life.” Adapting to Life Back Home Returning to Denmark after years of living abroad presented its own set of challenges. Emily admits, “After spending so many years living abroad, coming back to Denmark felt like being an expat in my own country. The cultural nuances, societal changes, and even the way people interact felt foreign to me. It was a challenging transition, but it also gave me a unique vantage point to see my country from a different perspective.” https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/june-book-review-4d5sk monthly 0.5 2024-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/5f83900b-a752-4103-9a68-28e1d5cd04fb/July+Book+review.png Insights - July Book Review - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/careerclub-dks-advisory-board-photoshootnbsp monthly 0.5 2024-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/fb22eb60-a763-4ebc-a4f7-d018c005e87e/Advisory+Board+Photoshoot.png Insights - CareerClub DK’s Advisory Board Photoshoot  - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/empowering-your-career-an-interview-with-louise-janning-petersen monthly 0.5 2024-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/10cb8ab6-a864-4503-b3d1-831a8d0da811/Louise+Interview+Graphic.png Insights - Empowering Your Career: An Interview with Louise Janning Petersen - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/e212b084-7ebe-4121-8145-729ded888fe6/Louise+LI+photo.jpg Insights - Empowering Your Career: An Interview with Louise Janning Petersen - During our conversation, Louise provided practical advice for enhancing LinkedIn profiles—a crucial tool for job seekers, especially in the Danish market. “First of all, have a nice, professional picture—not with your dog or children. This is not Facebook, it’s a professional platform. Make sure to look sharp and nice. Some colors would also be good,” Louise advised. She emphasized the importance of a friendly yet professional demeanor in profile pictures. “You can definitely smile. You can see that I'm a person who often smiles,” she noted. Louise also recommended using the LinkedIn banner space effectively. “If you’re looking for a job, you could put your name, email address, and phone number on the banner so people can contact you easily.” Louise also stressed the significance of a compelling headline and summary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/d86c6e8a-f418-4d3a-a399-1a70baae63cb/tempImagegvWkZm.jpg Insights - Empowering Your Career: An Interview with Louise Janning Petersen - Louise’s passion for empowering individuals through their career journeys shines through in her work and advice. “Seeing others succeed and knowing that I played a part in their journey is incredibly rewarding,” she shared. “I’m committed to creating pathways for success and fostering a supportive community where everyone can thrive.” Louise’s expertise extends beyond LinkedIn.

It’s important to build our own community around us in Denmark. It will also give us good insights into jobs – naturally people are more open when you are closer to them, talking honestly about their own work and experiences. Sometimes we may be trying too hard to do it in a certain way, but you can relax a bit more with people in your network, and understand them more. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. In some cultures, it may be considered rude to do so. In Denmark, that is not the case – it’s seen as curiosity and showing interest in the work. In my first interview, I didn’t do that at all– I sat waiting to be asked, and focused on giving the right answers (That came from my background from Portugal). Over time, I realized, it’s fine to ask questions and show our curiosity for a topic. It’s fine to ask questions to understand others better. We are strangers sitting in a room for the first time, looking for someone to work with. It is an exercise in creating empathy and connection. And my final pieces of advice: Own it. There is only one person responsible for making me happy - me, says my mind. There is only one place where I’ll have to live forever, my body. Your community. Seed it, water it, cherish it. Grow together with your tribe.

I have always loved connecting with people from different backgrounds. It inspired me to study languages, starting with Danish and Dutch Language and Literature at Charles University in Prague. My own experience allows me to support others on the same journey. What practical tips do you give your students for practicing Danish? It is much more effective to study a little every day (maybe just 10 min) than just once in a while but for an hour or two. It helps a lot to create a routine around language practice. With my clients I try to find out what can be fun and doable for them and then help them make it happen by setting aside specific times during the day for short, focused language sessions. This could be as simple as reviewing vocabulary during your morning coffee, listening to Danish podcasts on your commute or talking to yourself about your day when you are cooking in the evening. Consistency is key, and integrating language learning into your daily routine can help you stick with it. When looking for a conversation partner, try to find someone who you will feel comfortable talking to. To improve your Danish, it doesn't have to be a native speaker. You get better when you recall vocabulary and form sentences. For some people it is a good solution to find a conversation partner who is also learning Danish, because they feel less self-conscious when speaking. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/7f44945f-6d9c-4761-8811-b734e02ba029/Hummelgren3.jpg Insights - Associates Interview: Daniela Hummelgren - Could you share who have been your role models in the way you approach language learning? Absolutely. My mother was a huge influence on me. She didn’t know languages well, yet she managed to get by during our travels due to her positive spirit and willingness to connect with people despite the language barrier. Her attitude taught me that confidence and a positive mindset are just as important as language skills. I also understood that there is no reason to fear making mistakes. It’s all part of the learning process. Any other personal anecdotes that have impacted your views on language and communication? Yes, I have a story from my own family life. My husband and our child are both native Danish speakers but there are times when she would ask him three times “Hvad” and he would just repeat the exact same sentence, just a bit faster. This kind of situation has nothing to do with language proficiency. My kid is not bad at Danish and my husband is not unfriendly or not willing to talk to her. Danes just often don´t understand each other! I try to help my clients understand that not every communication hiccup is because their Danish is not good enough. It is essential to know that there are ways to learn to cope with it. The native speakers are often not aware of how to help the foreigners. So the learner needs to have strategies to deal with it. You can always say something like “Can you say it slower? Can you say it with other words please?’ or even “What do you mean with X?” You can learn to make the communication continue. It takes strategies and practice. And knowing that it is not personal! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/2802ac39-561c-4076-bc1e-a702ee275453/Hummelgren2.jpg Insights - Associates Interview: Daniela Hummelgren - Before we wrap up, any final thoughts, life mantras, or strategies you'd like to share with the Career Club DK community?

I am currently a Senior Advisor in our global education division. I work on communications for our EducationUSA network, USA Study Abroad, and Fulbright Teacher exchanges. I love meeting the participants of our programs! My professional background is in the field of Public Diplomacy, which is a multidisciplinary field rooted in international communications, media studies, international affairs, marketing, and public relations. I originally went to school to become a news anchor (or television presenter, as it’s known outside the United States). After my study abroad in Copenhagen, and the amazing lessons I learned in a course taught by two dynamic Danish women, I decided to go into intercultural communications. That is how I found myself pursuing a dual master’s degree in Public Relations and International Relations immediately following my university work in Corporate Communications. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1714497867103-F5GGV7CFIEG3FFQUIBUO/Nichole+Allem_BatalaGig.jpg Insights - Coffee Interview with Nichole Allem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1714497867104-3OMC9VC6HDR08JFSD1KH/Nichole+Allem+Winter+Bathing.jpg Insights - Coffee Interview with Nichole Allem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1714505611250-QWQM9L3Z0234XB5U62WZ/1000013397.jpg Insights - Coffee Interview with Nichole Allem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1714505612570-E6DAG7FY34ZUZJQAY0IU/1000005900.jpg Insights - Coffee Interview with Nichole Allem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/94ce0424-c261-48dd-add8-b4a5e03755e3/Nichole+Allem+Professional+Headshot.jpg Insights - Coffee Interview with Nichole Allem - Interviewee Nichole Allem CCDK Advisory Board Member & Newsletter Director Senior Communications Advisor LinkedIn Please connect and say we are both in CCDK.

It's hard to explain but I know that my goals in life drive me to be a superwoman and do more than seems possible. I feel that I can only find fulfillment when I have reached out to more than 70% of the less privileged all around the world. Can you share any upcoming goals that you're looking forward to achieving? I am looking forward to organizing a social, fun-filled event for young kids this summer in July via SOCIAL HARMONY NETWORK. I know that all the hard work is worth it to see the smiles on the kids' faces.

It comes as no surprise that I chose International Hospitality Business Management as my bachelor's degree. Studying abroad in the UK allowed me to expand my international network, improve my cultural awareness, and gain a comprehensive blend of theoretical knowledge and practical experience. The first-class honours degree I achieved is further proof of my learnings, capabilities, and passion for the industry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/808fc57a-43c4-4553-9bbd-2ff4b0b2fee4/Salme+Interview+April+2.jpeg Insights - Board Member Interview: Salme Tran - Please share some strategies/platforms/blogs you use for continuous learning and personal development to keep up with the rapidly changing industry trends for your career growth? I love to join different courses and events to learn more (both online and offline). A great online platform to learn is Coursera—there are free courses, but the monthly fee is also very affordable. You can invest time whenever you can and go at your own pace. Reading material (articles, videos, blogs, etc) related to your field is also a great way, as is following thought leaders on LinkedIn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/306c7e56-7eca-468b-87ad-3c3a1d3670ce/Salme+Interview+April.JPG Insights - Board Member Interview: Salme Tran - How did you build your network and social life in Denmark? My recommendations are to be brave and get yourself out there. Joining different clubs or activity groups is a great way. For example, I am part of a winter bathing club and also do saunagus ceremonies. I joined many networking events, both for social and professional networking (CareerClub DK is great for both). If you make a connection, be sure you invest in growing it. Having close friends here in Denmark will help you, as a newcomer, feel more at home and ensure you can get the support you need. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/1711463549171-OYAC2RMLE4MXMJ38HG21/Salme+interview+professional.JPG Insights - Board Member Interview: Salme Tran - Interviewee Salme Tran, Operations and Customer Service Leader, Career Club DK Advisory Board Member Connect with her on LinkedIn: https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/interview monthly 0.5 2024-03-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/80c22895-b04e-452d-9875-10c9b340f8fc/Newsletter+interview+cover+to+Blog+.png Insights - Meet our Founder & VP - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/481ba7fa-3e01-4a25-8d51-d63ead3710ea/tempImageOBg026.jpg Insights - Meet our Founder & VP - What's Next for Career Club DK?

I am originally a graphic designer. I finished my education in Copenhagen and have a master’s degree in visual communication. I’ve been working as a freelancer for very long time, but I was never proactive or searched for clients or promoting myself. I would take on jobs from friends or recommendations only, so I have always had a part-time job on the side to maintain me financially. Eventually, it got comfortable and the part-time became my main thing. Until last year, where I found my path as a social media strategist. It just clicked, and this is what I want and should do: There’s no plan b. Besides that, I’m a Zumba instructor. It is one of the best sports for me, dancing with a group of smiley faces, an hour of stress relief, an hour of me-time https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/6e7dc00e-eb77-4a31-a754-1d69bde46bf0/966FC0BA-A5FA-46D6-8682-D97ACA613D3B.jpg Insights - Interview Feb 2024 - Can you share about your current & future career aspirations in Denmark (the field/area of work)? Right now, I’m working as a social media cheerleader, a.k.a. strategist at my company Claire the creator. I do Instagram/ SoMe coaching for small businesses / DIY entrepreneurs that know very little to nothing about social media and branding. I coach them on how to use Instagram to grow their business, to be more visible in the digital world. They can carry it on their own and have fun with it instead of feeling frustrated and excited about their business. I also run a few restaurant accounts (managing their account, plus a little bit of customer service.), and I’m open to more restaurant accounts! Because I’m a foodie, it doesn’t seem like I can get away from the Service industry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/0fcd1650-20ec-48de-bfa8-04663cdac9ca/IMG_9416.jpg Insights - Interview Feb 2024 - How did you build your network and social life in Denmark? I think having an open mind is very important. Go to events when you would rather stay at home, push over the comfy to adventure, and expect nothing but a fun experience. How did you navigate the language and communication barriers in Denmark, and what advice do you have for other non-native speakers? I got put off learning Danish, as Danes typically only would ask me two questions when I met them at a party: 1.)How long have you been here? 2.) Oh, so you speak Danish now?! I eventually learned, but when it comes to something I don’t understand, I will always switch back to English. The thing is, if people have a problem with you not speaking Danish, those are not your people. For me, if you want to learn Danish. It is best to learn at your own pace. Don’t do it under Social pressure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/832893e2-7b29-484c-9e23-2b5b66b1e2ef/IMG_7605.jpg Insights - Interview Feb 2024 - Claire’s Links SoMe: Linked-In Instagram Coaching: www.clairethecreator.dk Zumba: Zumba Zumba Insta Manifistation Here https://www.careerclub.dk/insights/january monthly 0.5 2023-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/650588ecaa07f85212c3640e/5416a915-2684-4db5-b37a-d8dcec56ca9c/IMG_124B31D09544-1.jpeg Insights -
