Gluggar
17 May 2023 - Landsbankinn

Landsbankinn invites young adults who are taking their first steps in the job market to attend a seminar in the Bank’s new headquarters at Reykjastræti. 

What savings options are available? What wages can you expect in your first job after graduation? What is the debt situation of young Icelanders like? These are among the topics for discussion at the seminar where the Bank’s experts and a labour market expert join forces. 

The house opens at 17:00 and the talks begin at 17:30. Light refreshments will be offered.

Programme

What is the current status and what does the data tell us?

Guðrún Heiða Bjarnadóttir, expert in business solutions at Landsbankinn, reviews the financial position of young adults.

What can I expect?

Where is the demand in the labour market? What is not in demand? What can I expect to get paid?

Sverrir Briem, advisor and partner at Hagvangur, reviews conditions on the labour market.

How do I start?

Helgi Teitur Helgason, Managing Director of Personal Banking at Landsbankinn, gives pointers and advice about saving, borrowing and getting to grips with your finances.

We encourage participants to ask questions and join the conversation at the end of each talk. Note that all the talks are in Icelandic.

We look forward to seeing you!
