When you want to change your occupation
Are you having trouble finding a job within your profession? Job opportunities vary greatly between professions. Look for jobs where your skills might fit or train for a profession where there are plenty of vacancies.
Think about what would suit you
Knowing what you are good at is the best starting point for finding jobs to suit you. We have a guide that helps you to map out your strengths, interests, values and dreams.
Retrain for a new occupation
To change your occupation, you may need further education or training. It all depends on which occupation you want to go for. For some occupations it takes only a few months, for others several years. Here you can find an overview of the most common training and education paths for adults.
Choose right – learn more about an occupation
We have collected information about over 300 occupations to help you go for the right job. You can find out most things that might interest you - for example, if the occupation has good future prospects.
Check vacancies directly
Perhaps your skills and experience are already right for a new occupation. If so, all that’s left to do is apply! In the Job Bank, you can find all the vacancies that have been registered with Arbetsförmedlingen.
Let an employer find you
Not all jobs are advertised. So another tip is to make sure that employers can find you. Make yourself visible on social media and use the opportunities that lie in your network.
