• mate im an australian living in switzerland with my swiss girlfriend on a tourist visa,i am no IT professional or business exec,just have a trade background etc,i can tell you if you are like me with a similar background ie;normal blue collar worker start learning german now,secondly come to switzerland for a holiday,scope it out a bit if you know people here already then start establishing some contacts because if you are not a white collar worker with specialised skills then you will
  not get a job with anybody in the general trades/manufacturing areas unless they have met you because a) they already have people to do these jobs and b)they want to know who you are before any job is given as the swiss are generally quite conservative,so get over here meet people etc I myself will probably have to go home and apply for a work permit too, or the other option is if you have a swiss babe and shes cool about marrying you then do it ,mines not 100% about the idea yet but its the easiest way to live there,so all the best my friend
