Employment in Switzerland is primarily associated with a preliminary search
for a job in the local labor market. This is a prerequisite for obtaining a work permit, an entry visa and moving to
Switzerland.
The company MB GROUP SWITZERLAND AG will undertake a market research for a suitable vacancy for you,
assist with preparation of documents for contacting potential employer (drawing up a resume and a cover letter adapted
to the requirements of Swiss employer) and conduct correspondence with the authorities about the candidacy of a foreign
specialist.
Once you receive a formal job offer from potential employer, we will apply for a work and residence permit.
Next, the Cantonal Migration Office sends to the Swiss Consulate in the candidate’s country of residence the approval for
issuing a working visa. Within 14 days upon arrival, the foreign specialist has to rent a flat and to get registered at
the local municipality – at this stage we provide full support.
