Your starting point
Connect work plans with residence, tax and social-security questions. Check the position in each country involved before making commitments.
A job search benefits from a clear target role and verification of each opportunity. Use the steps below to organise a decision, not to infer an official approval, a guaranteed price or a universal deadline.
Work through the decision
Prepare a focused application
Adapt your CV and supporting examples to the role, language and employer's requirements.
Check the employer
Use independent contact details and be cautious about requests for advance payments or sensitive records.
Clarify eligibility
Confirm any residence or professional-recognition conditions before assuming you can start work.
Adapt this to your circumstances
Keep citizenship, current residence, household needs and the location of the home separate in your notes. Ask the responsible authority, institution or qualified professional to confirm any requirement that affects your situation. A checklist used by another household may not apply to yours.
