No. We have people from all over (currently: England, Scotland, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary, Portugal, Poland, Moldova, Ukraine, Romania, Ireland, Finland, Norway..). Being able to speak a Nordic language is helpful, but not definitely not essential.

Absolutely not. Finland is a nice place. If you don’t behave, we ship you to Slagelse.

Quite possibly yes, on most days.

Only in certain areas (such as kitchen, serving alcohol etc) where you have to be over 18 years old.

Is it true I will have to listen to ABBA all day?
No, this is not true. We also like everything Eurovision. We also love Michael Buble during November and December.

Do you take on work experience students?
On rare occasions, yes – but we do it on a case by case basis – and we only take in over 16 year olds.

Do you have internships?
Yes, from time to time. Ask us. We are a fast growing company and we don’t always have all opportunities up on the website.

What do you pay people?
We pay depending on experience, effort and enthusiasm.
