if you are moving to norway also very
important things to consider so make
sure you stay to the end of the video
let's talk about the first step in the
process of moving to norway the first
thing you have to have is a job and this
is the most important thing for you to
be able to live in norway and stay in
norway whether you come from europe or
scandinavia or asia or america whatever
you have to eventually have a job to be
able to stay here so
how do you get a job well you can choose
either to do it yourself you know search
for jobs on norwegian websites or you
can get help so who will help you me so
i have a link down below if you want to
hear more about how i can help you get a
job in norway when you click on the link
that i put down below you will
automatically come to my booking
appointment site and you're only able to
book my available hours and don't think
about the time zone thing the conversion
there it takes care of that you just
book an appointment and that's it if you
choose to apply for jobs yourself just
have in mind that it can take some time
to actually find a job and figure out
what norwegian companies are looking for
and how to actually write your cv
moving on to the next step in moving to
norway okay now you have a job then what
the next thing for you if you have a job
in norway is to apply at the official
norwegian immigration site
this is the official meridian
immigration site and you can just write
in what country you're coming from and
what visa you want to apply for in this
case most of you guys are applying for a
work visa and you put in your country
and then it will tell you exactly what
documents you need to upload to be able
to get this visa you really need a visa
to be able to stay in norway legally and
get a norwegian identification number so
you can get bank account norwegian phone
number everything that really is
necessary to start a life here applying
for a visa is definitely the hardest
part for foreigners so i've talked to a
lot of americans and some people from
south africa that says that this is a
really complicated process
i didn't have to apply for ibiza myself
because i live in scandinavia so just
making sure that you know that it can
take some time and you also want to make
sure to have all the papers in place
when you send in your first application
if you need one document and you have
send it in and they're like you're
missing in one document then you have to
pay because it's not free you have to
pay for applying again and this can be
expensive if you have to apply multiple
times to get a visa i've also heard that
it can take from
up to six months to actually get a visa
so just be patient but you will get your
visa it's not impossible you just have
to do the work now you have your job you
have your visa then what then you have
to find a place to live and where do you
do that well you go to this website
and this is the most popular website in
norway everything is gathered here and
you can pretty much do everything here
it's jobs it's apartments it's
apartments that you can rent it's used
cars you find everything on this website
when you go to this website you simply
click on where you have gotten your your
job and then you are looking for places
to rent so i'd say the normal price to
rent
uh 29 square meters apartment is between
5 000 norwegian kronas and 10 000
norwegian kronos so it really depends on
is it in the city is it a little bit
outside of the city and is it oslo or is
it a smaller city in norway once again
if you're really wondering about your
budget and how much things are here just
go on this website and you can make your
research yourself instead of listening
to people on facebook groups because
they are really not always telling the
truth
step number four is to get involved now
you have everything in place you have a
job you have your visa you have a place
to live
now you just need to get some friends
and get a social network here network in
norway is really really important
so
make sure that you go to your local
community and look out for
places to volunteer
and things to participate in how can you
participate
and the real road to norwegian's heart
is to show up and show that you care so
this is actually the best recipe to
getting a social network and starting to
learning the norwegian culture because i
also get a lot of questions on how is
the norwegian culture and really it
depends like here where i live in the
south of norway
it's also called the bible belt so a lot
of people are very you know grounded and
very calm and friendly
some people are very very christian you
know and it's
a whole different story if you live in
oslo so
figure out yourself how you the culture
is where you live norway is a big
country and i can't tell you this is how
it is here or here
figure it out for yourself
