Switzerland has low unemployment rate, but hiring can be selective. English-only is often okay in multinational companies, but local language is necessary for other jobs.

Tips

CV: max 2 pages, reverse‑chronological, include photo (still common here).

Work permit status: mention clearly (EU citizen / B‑permit / need sponsorship).
Beware fake postings: if a role asks for money upfront, it’s a scam—Swiss employers never charge candidates.
Register with your local RAV/ORP job centre if you’re already in CH—free coaching & courses.
