Qualifications differ depending on the job, but many of the in-demand positions in Sweden typically need a university degree or some kind of vocational training. If you're a healthcare worker, you'll need to register with Swedish authorities. Some fields, like teaching or engineering, require specific licenses. You might also have to get your foreign qualifications checked by Sweden’s UHR (University and Higher Education Council).

While English is commonly accepted in a lot of sectors, knowing Swedish is really important for jobs in nursing, education, and social services. For IT and engineering jobs, having certifications like AWS, PMP, or Cisco can really help your chances.
