Build your international career with the right preparation. Our focus is on helping candidates understand the difference between finding a job, receiving an employment offer and obtaining legal permission to work.
Work authorisation types are not interchangeable
Employer-sponsored permits, skilled worker routes, graduate work authorisation, job-seeker permits, intra-company transfers, seasonal permits, highly skilled routes and self-employment routes are general categories. Every destination has its own eligibility requirements, restrictions and application procedures.
A job-seeker permit is not a work permit
A job-seeker residence permit allows eligible people to look for employment for a defined period; it does not necessarily authorise employment.
Verify before you travel
Proceed with travel and employment only after satisfying applicable legal requirements. GoAbroad Services does not promise a job, work permit or visa approval.
