Hi. I am Wenceslao F. Diwa Jr. I am now residing in Finland and working as a Senior Carer at Attendo. I started my job here last December 202. I am interested to be part of your team. Honestly in terms of the nature of the job, i don’t have problems or issues in rendering my service and care, for it is my passion, the only reason that I decided to transfer is the Finnish language that really the most challenging for me. Language is also considered vital at work and in everyday life. So hopefully you can help me to be part of your team. Thank you and more power.
