Planning on moving to Norway?

One of the most popular Norwegian search engines is www.finn.no. You can easily look for appartments that you can either rent or buy in the section "Eiendom". Job vacancies can be found in the section "Jobb". In the ”Søk i alle stillinger” section you can write, for instance, the name of the company you wish to work for, profession or title either in Norwegian or English. After this click "Søk". You can even specify your search to cover only the City of Oslo. From time to time people with knowledge of Finnish are needed and it is therefore recommended to search jobs with the words "finsk" or "Finnish". You can also find open vacancies at www.nav.no.

Do not forget to check the Finnish Employment and Economic Development Office homepages at www.mol.fi. There you can search for jobs with the words "Norja" or "Norway".

Your own activity is important for the job search process therefor it is important to create profiles and post your CV to different recruitment agencies through their home pages. You can also contact different companies by phone or e-mail and leave an open job application with them.

Before moving to Oslo you should also visit www.nyinorge.no that contains a lot of information about Norwegian language courses, labour markets, health care, family and children, education, society and legislation. If you are moving especially to Oslo, visit www.velkommenoslo.no .

Pohjola-Norden has a lot of information on their homepages about Norway. For further information please visit www.pohjola-norden.fi .
