Perhaps you should preface that with 'âSweden is looking for good capable driversâ'given the time of year and conditions now through until April.
I agree with you Hutpik but now they know this many thanks for your reply anyway.
And have now re edited the post.
I moved here in 2003 and think its great just look at the summer we just had WOW the only thing I dont like is the zero temps.
But the roads are less clutterd here I can imagine its bad around Goteborg och Stockholm I guess other than that its great driving here.
Dont ask why I moved here because its a long story.
funny that i live in smaland and been looking around for jobs. They all tell me i need to speak Swedish and because i dont no job⊠yet i meet EE working for local companies with no Swedish and little english who donât have a problem.
Strange,iâve been speaking to an Englishman who is moving here in March.He was asking about jobs via FB,already he has been offered 3 jobs in the LuleĂ„ area,thats without coming with me to GĂ€llivare\Kiruna\Pajala.Maybe it depends on the attitude you present when you go to firms.The Swedes are a bit old fashioned.
Yep I think down south is a bit different. I have been offered a lot of jobs in malmo and Stockholm. Just out here seems a bit harder then average. All very well been offered jobs there but I donât live near them haha.
If youâve travelled all the way to Sweden it doesnât really matter where in Sweden you live and work,unless you have all roots in SmĂ„land.Alot of companies work 7\7,7days working and 7 Days free.Up here a lot of the guys in the mines sleep here for a week then go home for a week.Working 2 weeks in the month for a months wages isnât a hardship.Good luck.
Well I do have a job for a uk company justlooked for filler work and not sure the missus would be happy with me coming home and then spending time away again as I do that enough haha would rather do night/day work and be home and see her. When Iâm in Sweden.

Dont be surprised if you have no replies.A few years ago i posted the same thing for my old boss in GĂ€llivare asking for a driver to drive 1 week on 1 week free with a take home of ÂŁ2500 net,out of over 2000 looks i had 1 reply,and he was Romanian.
Well, I did answer and Iâm not romanian but as I remember the response was akin to âgo there and find the chapâ. Fortunately my current place of employment was a bit more welcoming
Yes well itâs easier to get folks to engage with a proposition, if it was a bit less vague. I remember driving across Norrbotten with said âgo and see the guyâ offer in mind but, well, what if he has no idea why Iâm there? etc
My current employer has nothing to do with trucks though, nor do I anymore.
Thats crap.If anyone has contacted me[and dozens have]i have Always said,âif you want to move and work here then its best to come up here and interact personally with any prospective employerâ',AND i have Always said to Contact me so i can take you to meet people.But after quite a few years and many Contacts,none of whom bothered to come here i now dont bother.
There is an English guy who is moving up here in March,he came in December to ââmeet and greetââ and has already been offered 3 different jobs just by showing the enthusiasm of visiting.
And if you had said what you claim to have been saying I definitely would have come, either while driving through, as I often was or it wouldnât have been too much for me to take the thousand km trip up there in my own car. I actually added tanks and explosives to my ADR specifically with the mining sector in mind.
But letâs be honest here, the post scriptum says it all.
As it states,the address is quite clearly written even someone from the EE could have found it.The job was available for a while.Obviously the reference to sending 'âall your friends and relativesâ'means If you are any good then you can get ajob but dont send all your friends who have got thier license from a corn flake packet just because they will work cheap.
