Working in Switzerland

Employed in Switzerland, looking for a job, starting a business?

Regardless of the reason for the move, it’s useful to understand what’s involved in looking for work, work permit rules, types of job contract – and, for those with an entrepreneurial streak – how to set up a business of your own, whether as a small, family concern or a much grander project.
