Hi everyone,
I am currently looking for a job in sweden in stockholm.
I am working currently in human resources department doing payroll for French companies, is there any possibility to get a job in this area in Stockholm ?
I have seen many offers with swedish required, i have started to learn it actually four months ago, but definitely i speak English.
Does someone has some leads to help me ?
thank you for your help

From my experience, unless you can work with IT it is very difficult to get an English speaking job in Sweden without being *really* fluent in Swedish.

Since your profession is human resources, I think you must speak Swedish.

ok thank you for your answer,

So there is no job where English speakers are required ? for example in translation ?

I think it's rare, since Swedish people have a very high level of Swedish in general.
Again, if you don't work in IT, if聽 you can find an English speaking job is mostly mere luck.
For starters, you can try to find jobs like babysitting.

Do you speak French? It can be an edge.
