Moving to another country is not something you do every day and it will take some effort from you and from us to make this transition as smooth as possible. It is very important for us that your new life here in Sweden is successful and that you can integrate quickly into Swedish society!

The process in short:

If your resume can be matched with the needs of our Swedish clients we will want the following in order to find the right assignment for you:

• A short video where you present yourself and your working experience. A WorkITSweden representative will contact you and help to make this video professionally.
• You will have to be available for video interviews from our clients when possible.

If our clients decide that you are the candidate that they want, we start the immigration procedure to Sweden. There are no guarantees that you will get a work permit in Sweden and any incriminating in your background can make this impossible so it’s important to be transparent with us.

If the work permit is approved you will be hired by WorkITSweden with contractual salary and benefits in accordance with Swedish rules and regulations. Help with accommodations can be provided if necessary and a plane ticket booked and payed for.

You will be met at the airport by a representative from WorkITSweden who will help you with everything necessary to get started in your new home country.

Välkommen!
