    Current jobs by occupation

    Open an occupation to see current Swedish advertisements, employer counts and application guidance.

    What to check

    Choose two to four role titles that match your real experience.

    Select locations you can realistically commute to or move to.

    Check the advertisement language separately from the employer's working language.

    Verify work-authorisation requirements before relying on a vacancy.

    Tailor the CV evidence and application to the requirements you can genuinely meet.

    Where to search

    Platsbanken is the Swedish public job source. LinkedIn, employer career pages, staffing firms and specialised boards can add coverage. Use more than one source when the role is narrow, but avoid sending the same unfocused application everywhere.

    • Use saved searches for exact roles and nearby titles.
    • Open the original employer advertisement before applying.
    • Record deadline, location, language and must-have requirements.
