Job offers in Uppsala

Uppsala, located north of Stockholm, is the fourth biggest Swedish city. Despite having been around since 1286, Uppsala has quite a young, diverse and dynamic vibe — made possible thanks to its international University which has been attracting students from all over the world since 1477. Currently, one-fifth of Uppsala's population of 205,199 are people born outside of Sweden (or people with parents born outside of Sweden); there are 51 languages spoken in the city. As a symbolic and historical city, Uppsala provides many professional opportunities to expats — however, its labour market is rather competitive.

Sweden is very welcoming towards young students and trainees. By moving here, you will have the chance to acquire expertise in a working environment with strong egalitarian values, be a part of an international hub of professionals and use cutting edge technology and advanced tools. To be able to intern in Sweden though, you will have to get a permit if you're not an EU or Nordic citizen.  

Located in Skåne county in the south of Sweden, Malmö is one of Scandinavia's first heavily industrialised cities which has developed greatly during the past era — especially in terms of infrastructure and architecture. Now a post-industrial, culturally diverse and sustainable destination, Malmö is Sweden's third largest city. Its population of 333,633 comprises people from over 170 different countries, speaking more than 150 different languages. Thanks to its university, Malmö also attracts a younger crowd: currently almost half of the city's population is younger than 35 years old. While the diverse environment makes it very easy for expats to navigate the labour market, you should keep in mind the city's high unemployment rate.

As one of the biggest Scandinavian capitals in Northern Europe, Stockholm is an attractive location for expats. There are many job opportunities with appealing wages and of course, the city offers an extremely high quality of living. Although job hunting is competitive, there are many resources available to help expats find a job in Stockholm. 

Sweden, the largest of the Nordic countries, is more than Abba, Ikea, and meatballs. Ranking in the top ten of UN's World Happiness Report, there is something about Sweden that makes its residents content with life — and a myriad of digital nomads are flocking to the country to find out its secret.

Every year, Sweden attracts thousands of expats looking for new ventures. If you are one of them, you should be aware that the process and the difficulty of starting your own business in Sweden will vary drastically, based on whether or not you are an EU or Nordic national.
