1. How difficult is to find a job as a Software Developer in Switzerland? This is a commonly asked question. Switzerland is one of the best countries to work in as a Software Engineer. In terms of salary, you can easily earn above 100,000 CHF (note: 1 CHF ~ 1 USD), add to that the European work-life balance and beautiful nature - lakes and mountains. Because of that, and the fact that Switzerland is a rather small country with a population of just below 8.5 million, finding a job here isn’t particularly easy. The IT market in Switzerland is much smaller compared to Germany or France. There are a few factors that you need to consider and might work either in your favor or against you: 1. Work experience and technologies - while finding a job in Switzerland is not easy, good luck finding a job as a Junior Software Engineer, especially when you are a foreigner. Most of the companies are looking for Developers with 2+ years of experience (since they are going to pay them 100,000 per year, anyway). Having said that, it is possible to find a job even as a Junior but you would be rather looking at internship/trainee offers. The 2nd part is the technology that you specialize in. In the job data on SwissDev Jobs you can see that there are many offers for Java, JavaScript, and C# developers but not as much for Mobile, Ruby or C++. 2. Being from Switzerland or EU - if you are a citizen of one of the EU countries it will be pretty easy for you to obtain a work permit in Switzerland - it is a matter of filling the papers after you get the job. However, if you are from a different region, say the United States or India, the process becomes more difficult. In such a case, the employer needs to offer you a visa sponsorship and prove to the government that it was not possible to find a qualified person in Switzerland for that position. Again, if you are a great developer, you might get this chance, but in most of the cases, companies will restrict their potential candidates to just the EU + Switzerland region. 3. Language skills - Switzerland has 4 official languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Speaking the main language of the part you would be in is definitely an advantage and many companies require it. 2. Step by step process for finding a job as an EU citizen: Step 1. Apply to companies while staying in your country: It has 2 big advantages: first, you don’t have to bear the high costs of living in Switzerland and second, you can focus on the important things - interviews. In this step, you need to find the job offers. For that, you can use SwissDev Jobs or any other job board. Alternatively, you might want to get in touch with a headhunter to help you. If you are not yet living in Switzerland, we recommend to apply to many job openings, because it is not easy to get invited to an actual interview. If you want to get informed about new job postings in real time, check our Job Alert. From our experiences, it’s worth to work with headhunters if you are on Junior level (0-2 years of experience) because Swiss companies tend to be quite reluctant to hire graduate developers from abroad. Step 2. Job interviews: Normally the interview process has 2 or 3 steps. It starts with an introduction call or/and a coding task - pretty standard. Then, if you are not located in Switzerland, there might be a video call with live coding. The last round will be an onsite interview where you come to Switzerland and visit the company office. The practice of reimbursing travel and accommodation costs is not widely spread, though some companies may offer it. Therefore, it’s best to try to schedule a couple of onsite interviews on subsequent days to not have to fly back and forth After the last interview, you should get a yes or no answer in the following days, max. 2 weeks. Step 3. Moving to Switzerland: Congratulations - you have found a job in Switzerland. That was the hard part, now the formalities. After signing the contract you need to prepare to move. If the company doesn’t offer any relocation package or help you need to have between 2,000 and 4,000 CHF for the relocation. You can also do it all on your own if you want. When you arrive you can start looking for long term accommodation. There are 2 options: 1) Rent a flat - this is your choice if you bring your family 2) Rent only a room - it might be a good option if you come without family (in Switzerland it’s called living in a Wohngemeinschaft). 3. Things to do after moving to Switzerland: Formalities after arriving: With regards to the formalities, you need to take care of the following: Get work permit - most important. For that, you need to go with your work contract to the local public office (Gemeinde). Check the details on the official government website. Open a bank account - you will finally have an account in one of those famous Swiss Banks™. They charge for pretty much everything, therefore make sure to compare the offers and pick the best for you. We are now cooperating with Credit Agricole Bank and Revolut - if you have already moved to Switzerland you can open a free bank account and get 100 CHF bonus - email us to get the bonus code. Choose health insurance (Krankenkasse) - in Switzerland you have to pay your health insurance separately (it’s not deducted from your salary). You can use the Comparis website to compare the options. You have 3 months to choose both the company and your franchise. Franchise is the amount of money you maximally pay per year for medical services. After reaching this limit the insurance company comes in and takes 90% of your costs. The higher the franchise, the lower your monthly premium. Other important things - if you plan to use public transport, we recommend you to buy the Half Fare card. It gives you a 50% discount on most public transport in Switzerland (it costs 185 CHF per year).For the phone, you can either use a prepaid option or a subscription. Integrate and have fun - find local groups related to your hobbies and interests. There are also some general expat groups like Zurich Together. How much does living in Swizerland cost? Switzerland is one of the most expensive countries in the world, the top most expensive cities in the world are all in Switzerland, therefore prepare for a price shock. To be more detailed below is a breakdown income and costs for someone earning 120k CHF and living in Zurich: 120,000 CHF annually according to this calculator gets you 7,746.20 CHF net per month. It assumes that you are single and have no children. (Switzerland offers some generous tax reduction when having children) To simplify, let’s assume 7,700 CHF monthly to spend. Now let’s move to the costs: Apartment: 2,000–3,000 CHF (with 3k you can get a pretty but not the biggest one in the center) or if you share a flat in a Wohngemeinschaft: 700-1,200 CHF Insurance: 280–500 CHF (280 for the 2500 CHF franchise) Food: 150 - 1,000 CHF (150 if you are always cooking for yourself, 1,000 if you are a foodie and eat out every 2nd day) Entertainment: 200–1,500 CHF (a drink in a club costs ~20 CHF, monthly gym subscription 100 CHF, again, all depends on you, traveling to other countries is pretty cheap) Other: 200–1,000 CHF (phone, clothes, public transport or a car, etc) To sum up, if you go the “live cool and don’t care about expenses” option you will spend monthly around 7,000 CHF and still save some money. If you, on the other hand, want to go the student-like route (living in Wohngemeinschaft, not eating out too much) and try to save, you can easily live on 1,500-2,000 CHF per month and save the majority of your salary. Of course, any option in between is also possible.
