Work during studies
Are you interested in working part-time during your studies? Check out the job-hunting tips on this page. International students with a residence permit for studies are allowed to work in Sweden during their period of study. No additional work permit is needed. However, students from outside the EU/EEA who wish to stay in Sweden to work after completion of their studies need to contact the Swedish Migration Agency for more information.
Finding a part-time job
Finding a part-time job in Stockholm can be difficult, especially if you do not speak Swedish. However, there are ways to increase your chances of finding a job. Even if a company is not advertising a placement you can still send your CV and an expression of interest in working for them. Using notice boards to advertise your services is another way. The public libraries are good places to start, as they generally have many job ads on their notice boards.
Study in Sweden is a comprehensive resource for information on the topic of higher education in Sweden. Apart from practical facts concerning the Swedish educational system, the website provides information if you are interested in working during your studies.
