Interesting news from  iltalehti.fi  reporting on  suomenkuvalehti.fi which Vanjoki apparently confirmed was true.

When Nokia appointed Stephen Elop instead of Anssi Vanjoki to become CEO, Steve Jobs had supposedly contacted Vanjoki wanting him to go work at Apple.

Whilst Vanjoki did leave Nokia, he didn’t go to Apple. It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in Apple but it was said that Apple wouldn’t have suited his personality.

The exact position was not mentioned. Perhaps that’s why Vanjoki declined the offer?

Cheers Random Random for the heads up
